They also wanted to know if I would vote tory if there was an election tomorrow.

Pollsters must not like my answers to that one.

As some know, I get paid by yougov to answer all sorts of shit from time to time.

Today I got a poll that wanted my age marital status and sexuality.

Queer was one of the choices

Well, and this was a  DECADE ago ...

the bent as a nine bob note liberal democrat cardiff councillor that i used to work with waxed lyrical about the float behind him on the cardiff pride outing.

entered by the local islamic homosexual group (yes, i shit you not, although i cannot see its membership being terribly public) their banner on the float said and i quote

"We're here, We're Queer and We Dont Drink Beer"

Definitely a self-outing then, rather than an Outrage occurrence...

Yes, it has, the queers are calling themselves queer now.  :shock:

I think (as with almost all things) it's the context that is important. People that want to use the term as an insult will no doubt see its other usage as justification for them to use it as an insult, when the issue really is the intent behind the word.
