I'm very guilty of calling things "gay" in a negative context. But, to be fair, so are my gay friends. I have no problem with this word, used in this particular context, to eventually fade out of our culture.

But Hilary, please give us an alternative. We can't just quit cold turkey.

So, may I propose to use the word: CIGARETTE -- why? Because in England, cigarettes are fags.

Plus, the culture has already villified smoking.

"Those clothes are so cigarette"

"Quit acting like a cigarette."

"Cigarette Rights Now!"
