Apology

[bennyboy]

I know that "faggot" is used to mean gay, but in my experience as a Canadian, it isn't really used as a sexual label. To my mind, "faggot" means a strange, annoying degenerate who needs social correction, usually at the end of a flurry of drunken fists.

Now, I've met some gay faggots. For example, I once saw one guy licking his finger in my direction and pursing his lips in an explicitly sexual way-- while I was peeing in a men's room. There really is only one way for a normal young "dude" to respond: "What the fuck are you lookin' at, faggot?"

In middle school, there was one kid who just couldn't keep his hands off of his female classmates' developing breasts. He'd literally just run up and grab them. Clearly, this is not a homosexual boy. But one of the girls' brothers correctly responded to his behavior with: "If you touch my sister again, I'm going to kick the living shit out of you-- faggot!"

And yes, the word is extremely disrespectful. It is a word which carries a sense of extreme social invalidation. But some people deserve it. Now, stop complaining about it, bitches!
