I call things gay or retarded all the time but I thought to myself, "That must be pretty offensive to all the gays and retards." Then I continued on my way still calling things the way I always do. I've considered stopping lest I irritate anyone offended that I would compare anything bad with what I consider to be society's lessers, but frankly I don't give D@mn!

Whats the difference in putting people down than if you just not use the word retard? Is that word just not ok because of your mom?

I'm far smart to stoop to name calling. I don't call things retarted or gay cause those are very demeaning words to some. I have enough vocabulary skills to format a sentence that is an insult but it isn't barbaric as calling something gay or retarded.

I strongly disagree to calling people gay and retarded

Reason 1:I have a friend who's gay and he's really nice.
Reason 2: I have a little cousin who's retarded (autistic, actually) so I usually feel offended when people talk like that.

o-o I think...I'm done now.

gonk Jack is one of the nicest people in the world!
sheesh...
well,I am WAAY against that whole thing.
First,obviously because of my/our "homosexual" friend.
Second,I don't know any "mentally challenged" people personally,but I've seen a few at school,and they're just trying to fit in with everyone else! you know that one kid in band? (his name excapes me at the moment) it makes me so sad to hear him play his trumpet and get lectured by Mrs. Armstrong,because I can see that he's just trying so hard! AUGH. pain. in the chest. ack~! -dies-

but seriously,I could go on allllll day.
bottom line: I am against calling things/people gay and retarded. mad

If you want to insult someone these days all you need to say is "******** you" or "you're a f*****t". So those two examples needed no brainpower to say. Now saying something like "your stupidity is only rivaled by your ignorance of proper english" is saying something.

yeah sure rolleyes I'd say all that if the person bothered to hear it all out, which they dont stare That doesnt leave much of a choice.

But if I think something looks stupid I think of what else is stupid, so I say gay or retarded, its kinda programmed that way into mainstream society. I'm not going to stop saying it anytime soon probably talk2hand

Suit yourself, I'd rather expand my vocabulary apptitude so that I can insult others without them ever knowing.
