Topic	Gay man calls out his HS bully after he came out as bisexual sparking debate.
Funkydog 11/18/19 12:54:02 PM #91:	BENGHAZl posted... It really rubs me the wrong way when people use queer as a synonym for gay. Not everyone is comfortable being referred to as a slur, even if you feel its reclaimed. Only mention I see of it being used in this topic was by the lgbt news site, so seems a fair usage to me. Many "in the community" use it specifically to make it a reclaimed word. Only way to reclaim it is by the people to use it themselves, so it no longer has the same impact. --- https://imgur.com/BGbZK <cite>Funkydog posted [p:930321137] in Gay man ca...
