Gay formerly meant...HAPPY...now it means...you prefer the same gender you are for sex. Formerly medical libraries had shelf after shelf of Journal of Homosexual Abnormality. When psychiatrists organizations were run by homosexuals that all was discarded as new diagnoses like Adult Hyperactivity...(nervous can't concentrate) was made into a disease. The latest creation is Intermittant Explosive Temper Disorder or I'm sick and went BERSERK disorder. But lately you're "normal" if you avoid the opposite sex, do not want to marry have sex and procreate. You can even change your name to "Sissyfag" but that's "normal" at least to psychiatrist since about 1990 or so when the medical library had the aformentioned tons of books about homosexuality being abnormal.

Nowadays it means being homosexual, as I'm sure you know. In the old days it meant being happy. Queer also meant that something was strange, but over the years the meanings of these words has changed. Just like the word c u n t. (It got censored and it's not a bad word) Now it means something bad (Can't remember what) but in the old days it was something good. I think that it had to deal with some sort of magical property.

Depends on who you are talking to and in what time period reference. Gay once meant Married. At another time it meant happy. Now it means Homosexual. Like many words, it has changed over the years greatly.

Traditionally the term "gay" was used to mean happy....
Modern day - it means that if a person is gay, then they are attracted to people of the same sex.

A very happy person who does what they like and don't care what society dictates. They happily sleep with members of the same sex...
Strange, but true.
