That's so...um...er...disagreeable.
"When a few classmates razzed Rebekah Rice about her Mormon upbringing with questions such as, 'Do you have 10 moms?' she shot back: 'That's so gay.'"
Young Ms. Rice received a warning and a notation in her file.
No word on the fate of the "few classmates." I wonder if they were gay?
Dang. Now I did it.
Or did I?

Whoa. I'll testify that many kids - mine included - used "that's gay" as a generic phrase referring to something that is stupid, lame, pointless, etc. There is no homophobic connotation when they use it.
Gay??... GAY??...
Pah-leeeeze..
When will these folks ever stop...
In my generation, Gay meant "Happy".. as in "Happy & Gay"...
Should we, who coined the term in the first place, run all off to court to contest the use of this term??.. I think not.
If folks would quit taking things like this on the chin every time they turn around, this world would be a much better place.
