🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 🇮 🏆I’ve ran into cis women on Grindr. My mom called them the super non-PC term “fag hags.” That’s the bad F word for those on Lemmy World cuz I’m pretty sure that word is censored on that instance.
Lemmy world censors “faggot” and the N word. Lemmy.ml censors “bitch”, and various slurs. I believe their users can still see comments with these words in, though they cannot post them themselves
SchmidtGeneticsSo they censor removed and not fag. That makes zero sense lol.
Well the first one has basically one meaning that’s derogatory (including the definition of a bundle of sticks used for kindling; that’s literally why it became a slur as it implies you want to burn them) while the three letter word is also slang for a cigarette in much of the world.
removed and fag are used interchangeably in much of the world. Both have other means, both are derogatory and both mean gay.
Yeah they’re used interchangeably by the gay men I know
The 6-letter version means a bundle of sticks, or a stick, which is how it came to mean cigarette. The 3-letter version is an abbreviation of the 6-letter version. Both of them mean cigarette, and both of them are an anti-gay slur.
I’m no historian or etymologist but I saw one on YouTube once who said a very similar term was used for poor older women who supposedly went around hunched over all the time picking up sticks for firewood, and then was later transferred to homosexual men to imply they were weak, effeminate, outcast, etc
