touch moar boobs: Reblogging on my phone is like trying to insert a butt plug...
Reblogging on my phone is like trying to insert a butt plug blindfolded but I saw something on my dash and it just reminded me that supporting ‘gay rights’ doesn’t mean shit if you use the word faggot and can’t stand the sight of a couple of lesbians holding hands in the halls. I remember one of…
In defense of some older people (like Ricky’s mom for example), I don’t think the word “faggot” always referred to gay people, because I’ve heard a bunch of older people talk about how when they were younger it was just an insult and not directed towards gay people. And Ricky’s mom says it from time to time and doesn’t mean it in that way at all or have any problem with gay people, and to her the idea of it being a mean word for gay people is like this new concept. (i know what you are saying about people being fine with gay rights but saying it anyway, but she doesn’t even remember/fully understand that its a big insult towards gays… Imagine one of the things you say most just as a funny insult you say jokingly to people and you grow up after saying it for 30 years and it turns into like a racial slur… that type of idea)
Anyway whether it’s your intention or not, everyone our age knows the negative connotations attached to to that word so for that reason it is just something you don’t want to say. I’ve never liked that word. I just wanted to say this I guess mostly in case you ever meet ricky’s mom so her eyeballs may stay in tact o_0
