how do you feel about "reclaiming" LGBT slurs?
  I am still offended by those words even if a LGBT person says them
  I don't use those words but I'm okay with it if other LGBT people do
  I use those words

I'm not sure I understand the question. I thought the word lesbian was just what you call someone who is a girl who exclusively likes girls. I didn't know people find it offensive.

What does the word lesbian have to do with sounding dirty? I am super confused.

I also agree with Farzine, it used to bug me a lot, but not any more.

Words are words. Society, history, and how people are raised is what makes a word offensive. We wouldn't have swear-words if people didn't socially agree they were "taboo."
