WTF is wrong with the letter "y"?
Really. What did "y" ever do to the gay community to get it removed from their language? Why does boy have to be boi? Why does hey have to be hai? Is that supposed to be cute? A way to distinguish gai people from other people. A wai to describe or delineate other members of the gai communiti? What's next? Mai Dai celebrations? Will the holidais change too? I find this almost as irritating as Randy Jackson calling everyone "dog".
I'm not convinced that such differentiation does the gai communiti ani good. I'm not convinced it does ani harm either, other than to annoy people like me. I guess it's got a long histori. Back in the 50's and 60's, some gai men (especialli in England) spoke their own language, Polari. Of course, Polari is spelled with an i at the end too. Coincidence? Polari
Maibe I'll just file this in mi folder of annoiing things, like when gai guys call their male friends girlfriend. Or straight white guys use the term "bro".
Sigh.
