"Just because a person is gay, mayor, doesn't mean he is a fag"

Craziest thing, that quote is from South Park and it was the quote of the moment when I was reading this article here. My friends and I also talked about that quote today at lunch.
Meaning that the term fag doesn't apply to gay people now, it's kind of synonymous with a jerk or a prick. I don't know what that woman meant by it though, as that quote is just the opinion of the South Park writers as well as about half the people I know. I don't use that word but when someone does that I'm around, I can usually bet they aren't referring to a gay person in any way.

You have an odd definition of homophobe (or at least that's what your last paragraph implies).

Ah, okay. Her apology does seem rather clumsy, agreed there.

I don't think you should read too much in the exact wording of her apology.

You should watch that Southpark episode where they change the meaning of the word faggot.

Suspect you need to consider the way the word is used in other countries.

The insult word for homosexuals Downunder tends to be Fruit or Queer.

I think it's unfair to people to assume that there's some underlying bad nature...

I'm not assuming there's an underlying bad nature, I am saying she should look to see if it's there.

I don't think I'm looking at the negative side of things, merely saying that she needs to look.
