And I think he may actually be on to something here. Liberalism often corrupts and coopts the meaning of words to their benefit in public debate (however limited they allow). They relabel something that is naturally offensive with a sweet, desireable word and present it as the defensible norm against which we are now waging a bully war. Wouldn't it be great if we took back this word and frustrated and stiffled them at their own game? We should all declare ourselves from this point forward as gay men in the truest sense of the word.

You already call yourself foolish and now you want to be gay. The word 'bigot' needs salvaging too, I think. It merely means someone set in their ways.

"a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices"

How 'bout it?
