"i have to say that i don't think 'gay' is the most attractive word; if i were art-directing the creation of a word that would describe homosexuals, i think i might have tried to find another one. 'gay' makes us sound silly + frivolous, which is probably where it came from originally--it was first used in a cole porter song in the '30s--+ i think it was probably a bit derogatory, + so it's not a word i necessarily like, but it's what i am, whatever."
