Gay people are not that gay Get a bigger avatar today!

Why are gays they called gay? They certainly arent more then normal poeple. I never notice how gays are more sociable, happy or less whinny. It's just like when you say "Taking a ****" when you actually leave one...Gays are just like everyone else, sometimes even worst, most gays I know have major mood swings or are pessemistic most of the time. So who the hell thought : " Yea, we should call them gay! " Cuz most of them are not like Richard Simmons. Take Asher for instance.....far from being gay....Let's not even mention Fez. I'd name some friends I have, but you people dont know them so it would be useless.
Mr.Fun is gay.

Why are straight people labeled as being straight when so many of them have improper, or unbalanced poster?

I see straight people who do not walk with an upright, straight posture.

Straight=The right way (nature wise)

It comes from a time when only the most eccentric, flamey people were known to be homosexual, and hence gay.

"Bent" is the term from which "straight" is now used to distinguish.

If I fall along the way
Pick me up and dust me off
And if I get too tired to make it
Be my breath so I can walk

If I need some other love
Give me more than I can stand
And when my smile gets old and faded
Wait around I’ll smile again

Shouldn’t be so complicated
Just hold me and then
Just hold me again

Can you help me I’m bent
I’m so scared that I’ll never
Get put back together

You’re breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent

If I couldn’t sleep could you sleep
Could you paint me better off
Could you sympathize with my needs
I know you think I need a lot

I started out clean but I’m jaded
Just phoning it in
Just breaking the skin

Can you help me I’m bent
I’m so scared that I’ll never
Get put back together

You’re breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent

Start bending me
It’s never enough
I feel all your pieces

Start bending me
Keep bending me until I’m completely broken in

Shouldn’t be so complicated
Just touch me and then
Just touch me again

Can you help me I’m bent
I’m so scared that I’ll never
Get put back together

You’re breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent

Can you help me I’m bent
I’m so scared that I’ll never
Get put back together

You’re breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent

Well, I like living my life - how should I put it? ... On an angle.

Even when I'm giving driving directions, I never say "straight ahead" I prefer the term "gayly forward!

because gay people are really happy. Instead of forcing themselves to partake in something they don't like (sex with the opposite gender) they are doing something that comes naturally to them.

Surely the usage of the word gay to refer to homosexuals must have had a beginning somewhere. Was there possibly a literary origin?

From here the etymology is halfway down.
quote:

Noel Coward's 1929 musical Bitter Sweet has the first uncontested use of the word: in the song "Green Carnation", four overdressed, 1890s dandies sing:

Pretty boys, witty boys, You may sneer
At our disintegration.
Haughty boys, naughty boys,
Dear, dear, dear!
Swooning with affectation...
And as we are the reason
For the "Nineties" being gay,
We all wear a green carnation
