I think it is changing again. My teenage sons refer to anything they don't like as being "gay". So a difficult assignment is "gay"; missing the bus is "gay"; a teacher who growls at them is "gay". It doesn't have to be a person, and while it has certainly not reverted to it's original meaning, it is losing it's homosexual connotations. But maybe that is just here in Australia. Cheers, Sarah P.S. Sorry Jacque - I'm sure they wouldn't think that you were "gay" :-) _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
