The word 'faggot', 'fag' is commonly used as an insult towards gay/bisexual men and in general people from
LGBTQ+ community.
It shouldn't be used by heterosexual/
cis people.
The history behind the slur:
Homosexuals used to be burned at the
stakes.
- You look like a faggot!
- Ye, he looks like a girl,
fucking faggot!
(reffering to the way the man is dressed; looking more feminine than masculine).
- They're
holding hands together, fucking faggots!
- Two boys together? Disgusting! You fags!
(reffering to the gay men being in the relationship).
- You shouldn't say the
f-slur, it's offensive towards gay people!
