Commonly known as the Scunthorpe problem

All this fucking censorship needs to stop.
Where I live, there used to be an Officer Gay in our police. He retired a while ago, but just imagine the possibilities. There was graffiti. Soo much graffiti.
Like, this was a legitimate word, once, used for names and such.
The Flintstones theme song....
"We'll have a gay old time"
This reminds me of the recent removal of the Enola Gay in US government history archives because LGBT+ is DEI.
Forgetting that gay not only has multiple meanings, but only predominately referred to homosexuality in the 1980s.
I remember looking it up as a kid. 1970s era dictionaries did not include the present definition.
No way. I live in a lttle hamlet called Filthy Cumslut and the same thing happened.
So if you were having a same sex wedding would you drive there just to send out invites so that the postmark read "Ft. Gay"
Hahaha I wonder if they did the same thing with anyone from Dildo, Newfoundland
At least its not Cockermouth
A lot of events like this not this one but a lot boil down to English centrism like that Shiitake issue or the Quebec website who went by the acronym cum.
I've seen USians complaining about our word for black people, ignoring that calling someone black (like the color) used to be as offensive to us as the N word is to them, while our equivalent to the N word was the non-racist option. Older people who haven't caught up with recent trends might still find referring to people as black offensive.
Yeah I remember playing Fortnite back in high school and asking a friend if he could play via the in game chat. The problem was that I wrote "Kunt ge?" so the whole thing got censored
He fort for the gay
