Remember how people called homosexual people, “gay”, as an insult and instead of making it a bad word, like the n word, homosexual men were like, “You know what? Fuck you. I am gay. And I’m not just going to let you call me gay. I’m going to call myself gay.”? And this word that could have grown to be as powerful of an insult as the n word became empowering to the people it was intended to shun. I always thought that was a baller move.
I have always thought that people that want to insult me are going to do it, no matter what, and people that want to be respectful to me, are going to do it no matter what.

But that’s what they said. That the word “gay” could have been as powerful as insult. Not that it is.
