By the way - it's not like I consider being called gay an abuse or a bad word (though I am intrigued - endlessly - by the equally endless obsession with my sex life.
Incidentally - it's not the way I consider being gay a maltreatment or a terrible word (however I am captivated - unendingly - by the similarly perpetual fixation on my sexual coexistence. Or on the other hand, umm, deficiency in that department).
