| docgbrown | posted 20-Aug-2007 2:25am Yes, I have heard "gay homosexual" in the context of a "happy homo" by a non-heterosexual man. |
| Melf | posted 20-Aug-2007 2:35am No, but I was once asked 'So are you gay or lesbian?' which confused me no end. |
| cabinfever | posted 20-Aug-2007 3:23am I don't think so.... pretty redundant, almost to the point of being funny. Unless the person meant a happy homosexual. |
| cabinfever | (reply to Melf) posted 20-Aug-2007 3:24am All lesbians are gay, but not all gays are lesbians, it that what you mean? |
| iamdonte | posted 20-Aug-2007 4:25am Yep and I have heard them use the term lesbian woman. |
| Melf | (reply to cabinfever) posted 20-Aug-2007 5:25am Harumph. |
| jettles | posted 20-Aug-2007 8:24am no but i can picture many people where i live saying it |
| bill | posted 20-Aug-2007 9:03am No, but I've heard "gay status" before. |
| Enheduanna | posted 20-Aug-2007 11:43am I don't think I've had the pleasure. |
| EyesOfCharisma | posted 20-Aug-2007 12:33pm no I have not... |
| Crayons | posted 20-Aug-2007 2:49pm Meaning like, just for the joy of redundancy? Hmm. I can't say I've heard it, but many things close to it. |
| cloudhugger | posted 20-Aug-2007 3:09pm No. It's redundantly funny tho. |
| Richard47 | posted 20-Aug-2007 3:10pm Sure, but not in a derogatory sense. It's like saying, " He's a gay'. It's cute. |
| cloudhugger | (reply to Melf) posted 20-Aug-2007 3:14pm When they talk of the gay community around the states, they refer to "the gays and lesbians". I think the men have cornered the "gay" word, while the women have the "lesbian" word. But in a whole, it is still the gay community. Another way the men have control. *sigh* It never ends.
Sort of like when I was at the Michigan Women's Music Festival, there was a very large tent with the sign "Women Of Colour Only". I thought that is just great, here we all are to support one another and there is a group that is segregating. Nobody really knows what they are talking about. |
| cloudhugger | (reply to Enheduanna) posted 20-Aug-2007 3:15pm It sounds kinda gay. |
| Enheduanna | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 20-Aug-2007 3:29pm It does. I think it would be very entertaining to hear someone use the phrase. |
| llamamama | posted 20-Aug-2007 3:43pm No..it's kind of redundant isn't it? Or..is that like saying..you're straight because they cancel out? It's not..but..think about it. |
| cloudhugger | (reply to Enheduanna) posted 20-Aug-2007 3:45pm With a straight face |
| Galomorro | posted 20-Aug-2007 4:43pm No but I've heard people say "Gay and Lesbian" a lot. |
| Enheduanna | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 20-Aug-2007 7:04pm Exactly. |
| RGirl | posted 20-Aug-2007 8:53pm When they were pretending to be Cartman from South Park, but not otherwise. |
| cloudhugger | (reply to Enheduanna) posted 21-Aug-2007 1:38am Can you say "Gay" without smiling?
I didn't think so. |
| mrmarm | posted 21-Aug-2007 2:01am Probably in a lame attempt to be funny, I live the country so I'm not surprised with all the stupid stuff people say and do. |
| judgescratch | posted 21-Aug-2007 9:20am The redundancy school of redundancy. |
| Melf | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 21-Aug-2007 11:27am > Nobody really knows what they are talking about.
So true |
| Enheduanna | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 21-Aug-2007 11:36am Nope, I really can't! |
| JessicaWoman99 | posted 22-Aug-2007 1:16am No I have not heard this one before |
| Biggles | posted 23-Aug-2007 11:00am Only Cartman in Southpark.
"That dog is a gay homosexual!" |
| Zang | posted 9-Sep-2007 12:27am Yeah. It might have been Homer Simpson. Maybe Eric Cartman... |
| Enigma | posted 22-Sep-2007 7:50pm No, never. Sounds weird. |
| BenSimpleton72 | posted 8-Oct-2007 10:11pm Yes and I use the term myself. Especially when talking to my best pal. He thinks it's funny, and yes he is gay. You don't even want to know what he calls me. |
