The word 'faggot', 'fag' is commonly used as an insult towards gay people and in general people from LGBTQ+ community. It shouldn't be used by
heterosexual people, as it's considered highly
homophobic and
disrespectful.
The history behind the slur:
Gay men were burned alive on a stack of sticks, while being called a 'faggot'.
- He looks
like a faggot!
- Ye, looks like a fucking girl.
(referring to the way someone is dressed; boy that is dressed 'more feminine').
- You both are together, fucking faggots!
- Ye, it's disgusting!
(reffering to the gay/bisexual men being in the
relationship).
- You should not say the f-slur if you are
heterosexual! It's homophobic and offensive.
