The Term Faggot Is No Longer Exclusively A Gay Bashing Derogatory Term, It's Now Used To Put Down Anyone Who Isn't Doing Something Right Or Is Just An Ignorant Unreasonable Dick. (See That?) It's Like The Word Motherfucker, We're Not Actually Saying The Dude Fucks Mothers (Although He Might) But We're Angry At Him Directly Or Indirectly So We Display Such Affections By Saying Said Words Of Animosity Towards Him. Same With Bitch Like @Teek Said.

In England the term faggot only applies to a gay person which is why I said it. Also, as I stated after my original post, it's related to battle rap in a homosexual way 99% of the time.

I was just answering the question from America's perspective, I've never been to another country nor have I ever lived in one, so how the hell am I supposed to know how people from Canada deal with this subject? Or people from the U.K? Lol.

Lol I know man. I did give you quite a hostile reply, my bad.

Exactly the reason you gave Huey, people aren't scared of gay people.

No group of people own words. That's not how language works

on the other hand, jason made a thread about the word 'nigga'.. not even 'nigger' and it was pretty much left up to the black people to decide who can use it. not even the word packed with hateful history itself, an evolution of that hateful word within pop culture is still pretty much owned by black people.

it's because nobody is scared of gay people and everyone is scared of black people... gays need a militant movement they can call their own. pink panthers, goin around stabbing and shooting people

Other obsolete senses of faggot were "man hired into military service simply to fill out the ranks at muster" (1700) and "vote manufactured for party purposes" (1817). The oft-heard statement that male homosexuals were called faggots in reference to their being burned at the stake is an etymological urban legend. Burning was sometimes a punishment meted out to homosexuals in Christian Europe (on the suggestion of the Biblical fate of Sodom and Gomorrah), but in England, where parliament had made homosexuality a capital offense in 1533, hanging was the method prescribed. Any use of faggot in connection with public executions had long become an English historical obscurity by the time the word began to be used for "male homosexual" in 20th century American slang, whereas the contemptuous slang word for "woman" (and the other possible sources or influences listed here) was in active use. It was used in this sense in early 20c. by D.H. Lawrence and James Joyce, among others.
