Please explain why these words are so offensive.

To quote George Carlin

Well that was pretty gay.

No. That's like saying calling a black guy a n***** would be a compliment. It's a condescending remark.

are you in the 5th grade or somthing

No, because it's a term meant to be used in a hateful manner. We don't view it as a compliment ever, just as women don't view being called a "bitch" a compliment.

Your about the 20th person to say something like that.

Just like calling a chick a whore, while she may be one, it's a derogatory and disrespectful manner to call her that, we like to use the words "prep" and "popular."

Thats like calling a straight person straight being a compliment.
Thats retarded.

And yes "Gay" and fag" can be terms used maliciously that are almost always used maliciously in America's ignorant public scene.

A fag was a pile of sticks that they would use to burn someone at the stake. I'm pretty sure that calling a homosexual a fag would be an insult.

Ya but homosexuals are called fags because when they ran out of sticks they would toss homos into the fire...so that's whay its an insult...
To the whole subject it is an insult because it is demeaning to who they are and its a word used to dehumanise and make them less then others such as the word niger.

Did you call me a fucking noob? What the hell? Not only do I have a higher level than she (which I don't care about), but I'm an actual artist that is older than you and has submitted high-scoring flash submission. You fucking vagina.
