It's pretty clear from some of the posts here that the word is not the issue, at least for some. Look at the posts referring to homosexuals as 'evil' or 'failures' or 'below standard'. People are admitting they don't like gays, regardless of the content of their character, assuming all gays are the same and live the exact same lifestyle.
This is, after all, the last bastion of the hyper-haters. They can't hate people for their religions or color any more, but by gum, they can sure hate them fags!

Yes, indoctrination dies hard. I honestly don't get hating gays, although the anti-science crowd has been having a field day.
It looks like the haters lost this round.
