I would say it's equally obvious to see why using a particular iden y as a catchall term to describe anything and anyone deserving of ridicule would be seen as problematic. If a particular state of being -- gay, lame, crazy, re ed, dumb, etc. -- is considered undesirable enough to act as an insult, how can that possibly be seen as not insulting that state of being?
For the record, I think that "that's so gay" has become so ubiquitous a phrase that most people don't use it with the specific intention of insulting sexuality or gay people. I think it is far more often used out of ignorance/misunderstanding/habit than out of malice. However, that doesn't change the origin of the phrase or make it any less of an insult.
the origin of the word "gay" has nothing to do with sexuals.
Neither does it have anything to do with the "that's so gay" use. The origin of the n-word has nothing to do with black people, but the phrase "###### rich" is about a whole lot more than being ignorant.
Just as it would be foolish to discount the fact that "that's so gay" has become a part of the cultural lexicon, it would be foolish to discount the fact that when gay became a stand-in for dumb (etc.) it was already well established as referring to sexuality. If "gay" still just meant carefree and happy, the current phrase never would have been started.
So you're saying if something is insulting to someone else you shouldn't use it?
If "that's gay" should be banned, then what about "my bad"? Gay originally meant happy and didn't use to mean cigs or a bundle of sticks? Is it possible to say that sexuals are guilty of word theft?
McDonalds could care less if you're gay or straight. They just want you to buy their food. Does France really pay straight people to have babies because they have so many gay couples there? Someone told me that they do.

Ugh, that's the gayest so far. Go shove it up your ass you bleeding heart got
ing amazing. Thank you
At the end of the day, people offended by words (either through eavesdropping on other people's conversations or hearing it in a public space where they can remove themselves if they're really upset) allow themselves to be offended.
Bu I can sympathize with people that might cringe and feel taken aback if instead of someone saying "my parents are being gay about me driving the car" they said "my parents are taking it up the ass about me driving the car"...since obviously that's an inescapable insult toward sexuals that, contrary to most heterosexuals that find the thought of anal sex unpleasant, is their main form of sexual gratification. Their pleasure is another person's pain.
I don't consider the word " got" as a gay slur. It's reserved for those that lack testicular for ude. A man can be gay, and be more of a man than a heterosexual man. However, both the gay and heterosexual males can be gots...but never women. It's more of a sexist slur than anything.
That's so .
Old term.. should we bring it back?
How about you pussy s being offended by words shut the up and stop being a little and caring about what some other er says. The only people who make a big deal about this are the little pussies that got picked on in high school. EVERYONE gets made fun of, whether it be because you're fat, short, a different race, ugly, gay, whatever. Get the over it.
*prediction*
"Wow, that's just the kind of reply I'd expect from an ignorant phobe."
