No, also not sure what effect that would have on anything?


In my past conflicts, over the offensiveness of certain material, the majority have been(the conflicts) with muslims. Im not being racist, its simply an observation.

They seem to take much more offence to things than most other people who will just take it on the chin, and laugh at it for what it is. I know there are alot of muslims on the forum here, and if I have offended any.. well this just further proves my point.



In Europe a 'faag' is a cigarette so no, it does not offend me and it should not offend any Europeans. Also, if it does offend someone then they're clearly not comfortable with the popular American meaning of the word and my response to those people - 'grow up' :wink:

You're seriously saying, if someone takes offense to the word fag, then they should 'grow up'?

Yes, yes I am. It's only a word.. I get called by words not allowed to be used on this forum, those either being sarcastic or meaningful. If someone calls me something that most seem 'offensive' I merely see it as an expression/an opinion. People finding any word offensive is childish. Anyone who says 'fag' is offensive might as well run up to a police officer saying 'that man called me a booger-head'. IT'S A WORD...
I guess I'm just a little too relaxed for most to understand. People getting offended by a selection of letters put together to explain something need help.. a lot of help.
Offensive words are a part of any culture. 100 years ago it was seen as 'taboo' to say 'breast' but now you can say it anytime, anywhere. It's only a matter of time before 'fag' becomes non-offensive to the masses.
I curse, a lot. I curse when I want to. I even curse in shops using the 'f' word when children are around. My friends all see that as 'wrong' but I see it as an expression and if someone does not want their child to hear such things then they should lock them up and never let them out of the house.

Re: Secret Message?

i don't get it :?


a) it's a cigarete
b) or it's a queer.
now.
- why would someone be offended be the word "fag" not adressed to him?
- or maybe that fella is a fag, but then.. if he's a fag why should he take offense? he's a fag so calling him "fag" is right and appropriate. but again, that wasn't directed at anybody... so... :?
