I agree with you Dakota. I remember travelling in a bus a few years ago and there was a 15 yr old boy on the bus travelling into his catholic school. We often sat together and chatted. One day he commented on a couple of 9-11 yr olds who got on the same bus and said they were cute. I wondered about him - actually I hankered after him somewhat - but never said anything. Now he is 18 and very obviously gay. I would have been right about him at the time - fortunately for us both I never took him up on his cute comment. So MF I would definitely drop that word from general conversation Bill |
