does it annoy anyone else... Options

[xtinew]

does it annoy anyone else when ppl use gay as a derogatory term? cuz it annoys me. and it honestly gets on my nerves when some of my friends do so [thankfully most my friends are more considerate then that]. if i hear someone i kno use gay as a derogatory term, i ask them not to...and its usually okay. except for these stupid guys in my class who start joking about it..whatever. theyre jerks. but honestly...whats up with that? what if the person you were talking to was gay? i certainly wouldnt be very happy at all if ppl were using my sexual preference as a diss...grrrr. the same with when ppl use retarded as a derogatory term. retarded ppl dont choose to have their brains develop slower; theyre born that way. and given a choice between being mentally retarded and being relatively "normal" i truly doubt someone would choose to be mentally retarded.

haha sorry. i have lots of complaints sometimes abt what i see around me... =/
