Their use is not only counterproductive, but traitorous as well. By use of such terms, LGBT people betray their unconscious and/or conscious shame and self-loathing; make a mockery of what is called "activism" by those who call themselves "activists," who assert pride, while continuing to use those terms. Moreover, "fagsploitation" of any kind is so demeaning that its very existence in supposedly Gay rights and Gay oriented publications is nothing short of contemptible.

I spend much time encouraging gay and lesbian folks that there is nothing wrong with them. Then these so-called gay icons make a mockery of what we fighting against.<br /><br />Just as I find N***** offensive, I feel the same way about f***** and the other words. I don't use them at all.genevievehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07041499205158357183noreply@blogger.com
