Read the bold. Follow the bold my little lambs.

Okay, first and foremost: I know that people can perceive these as insults. I know that people - attempt - to use them as insults. I am just one who is very, very unable to see any of them as insulting or offending in any, any manner, and this stamp is for those who see it the same. As I've mentioned before, I'm the type who sees words as words, so deal.

Plus, this is gonna be a long description. Brace yourselves.

Because we're going to be looking them down apparent slur by slur as I debunk then.

Gay = Don't give a shit if it's used in a 'stupid' way, this is talking about the homosexual slur. This along with queer, homo, and faggot. Don't know about anyone else, but if you've noticed on some of my stamps I call myself a fag, homo, and queer. And I'm a lesbian. c: Besides, once you've managed to find out what their original meaning is...it's hard to be offended.

Fat = I personally love how Scrubs took this. In one episode as Dr. Kelso was mentioning how the patient was overweight she just said in a sarcastic tone, "Wow. You figured out that I'm fat. Good for you." And even though I've been a toothpick my whole life I've been on the other end - yes, being overly skinny can now be a target. But I don't see what's wrong with it as long as you're extreeeemely unhealthy...even then don't get the insult.

Ugly = I can refer this one to my 'I care so little I almost passed out' stamp.

Virgin/Slut = Similar to being too skinny being a virgin can now make you a target to; if you haven't noticed when people now refer to basement dwellers who live with their parents and play games all day, whenever someone is describing them they often use the term 'virgin'. And then slut...for fucks sake, you could have had sex once and you'll be called it.
I've been called both various times. Who the fuck cares? :lol:

'Aboo = Couldn't write it all out, so of course weeaboo, wolfaboo, whatever aboo you want. Myself...I had no idea what weeaboo meant when someone first called me it, but the first image that came to my mind was that of a small burrowing owl.
Totally ruined it and now I cannot it seriously. Even when I refer to someone with it, I feel like I'm just referring to someone who likes Japan and anime a little bit too much...not blatantly insulting.

U suck = ...Yes, this is referring to the other sort of insults. Sort of. I was starting to run out of normal insults people use and just pulled this one out from underneath my bed.

But seriously. I just...cannot fathom how people actually use these and they can actually be effective. I suppose being called them over and over and over and over again can just really wear down the insult itself. If you're on the internet long enough, personally for me, they die down because if you're on the internet you're going to hear them over and over.

To me, just words. Just my personal look on them.

For some reason a lot of people find gay to be a synonym of lame.

LIEK OMG, U SUK.

Even on an art thief's page, people are like:

Is that really the best insult they can come with?

Well, many of them are statements. They CAN be true, but when used on someone they do not apply to, they are an insult.

Oh, of course you do, you hipocrite. Nobody likes to be insulted. People usually say that when they are fine, not being mistreated, but when they started being called names they forget all that zen theory! :lol:

Gay can be used as an insult and it works all the time.
