There's a big stink about VV using the phrase "that's so gay" in a trailer for his movie The Dilemma. I've seen a few articles where people are calling it a "slur" and other things.
I'm not big on being offended because if most comedy doesn't offend someone, it's not that funny.
However people say damn and JC all the time yet nobody takes exception to that. Last night my wife even said "people say you play like a girl, throw like a girl and it's not considered a slur."
People make fun of religion, race, fat people, short people and just about everything else.
Why is it when you make fun of or use a phrase like "that's gay," that's crossing some sort of line?
How is it different than saying you "play like a girl" or something like that?
