gay means stupid to most people. it's like the word "blue." It's a color or a mood.

that's what i'm trying to say...it's so deep in people that many really think it means stupid or prissy or something...but it doesn't mean that at all

how about this...

someone used a lot of slang, wore fubu, and listened to loud rap...would you say, 'don't be so black' to them?

If they were white.

So is perfect pitch a crock of shit?

That question has already been answered.

just like it was for 'nigger' being negative

calling a homosexual a 'fag' though, that's probably a better comparison since it's more parallel, but the idea is the same...it's wrong

yes, this i agree with, 'fag' is more comparable to 'N-' than 'gay' is..

we can still save the thread

perfect pitch is attainable....it just takes a lot of practice, training and time... a minor example of improved pitch would be, the pitch of Dave's voice... compare his voice from say '91-92 to now and you see how much practice can improve something... keep in mind 'perfection' is obviously not an easy thing to accomplish though

Ummmmm...perfect pitch is not attainable. I thought we covered that.
All your reffering to is having a well developed ear which has nothing to do with perfect pitch.

right - someone that practices or just plays a lot of music can easily tell the difference between a G and a C for example, but you're born with perfect pitch

darn, i want perfect pitch.

anyone still willing to try it with me? no one's said that they've actually tried it before and personally seen the results it does not produce. there's still hope!

fag does not mean gay. It is a belt. So if we all wanna be correct on this, fag is a okay word to use. While we are at it, we can no longer use the word straight. Since RT is bi, and doesnt like the word gay; it only seems right to not say straight as well. that way we are fair to everyone.

fag is also a slang term used as a derogatory term for a homosexual

using the word gay isn't a problem if you're using it to discuss sexuality

but to call someone 'gay' because they are acting in a manner that coincides with stereotypical gay actions is stereotyping gays...how is that not wrong?
