Only sce the begng of the 20th century has queer been ed to refer to people who intify as gay or lbian. Is "homosexual" still e?

The standard fn of homosexual is “a person sexually attracted to people of one’s own sex.” But, ’s typilly applied to men, and lbian is the term for a female homosexual.

GLAAD prefers that we don’t e the term homosexual bee ’s “aggrsively ed by anti-gay extremists to suggt that gay people are somehow diseased or psychologilly/emotnally disorred.”.

Bee suggts that beg lbian, gay, bisexual, or of another sexual orientatn is a choice and the person n be “cured.” You won’t offend anyone if you e the term sexual orientatn or jt orientatn though. It’s not a gay liftyle. The word gay refers to a homosexual man, but origally meant “lighthearted, joyful, reee.” Gay as an adjective meang “homosexual” go back at least to the 1930s.
