We Should All Get It, But Some Of Us Don't — Why I Have To Keep Showing This Wanda Sykes Video

It's short and to the point, and even a little cranky. But many of us have some friends who still say this. This is a public service announcement for them.

And because things that seem simple can be confusing for some, here's a handy flowchart for when it's OK to say "gay."

You'd probably never say this. I would never again say this, but I cringe remembering a time during my youth when I and others said it freely without thinking. It *did* take a little work to undo the habit when I finally realized how hurtful it is to others, but I'm glad I retrained myself. I know now that I won't have to worry about something offensive flying out of my mouth and having to feel awful about it when it dawns on me.

The original video is from I'm Just Gaying. I got the flowchart from It's Pronounced Metrosexual.
