An EO I can get behind
-
When my son hit middle school I was shocked by how toxic the word āfaggotā and āfagā had become. They would talk about āthe f wordā meaning that. No problem saying fuck.
Iām particularly curious how/when that change occurred. Itās easy to see us as a generation apart but there were kids every year between me and him. How did it go from ubiquitous (we said that word 20 times a day) to verboten? Whatās the trajectory like? I guess itās happened to other words.

My daughter the former teacher used to chastise me for it. I had to draw the line there. Donāt correct your father.

Luke finds it offensive when I call somebody a tranny.

Like Horace, I have always prefaced my calling someone stupid as a faggoty retard. Always posed as a question though to not deliver it as an insult.
