The collectivegay hive mind hasgiven all
sorts ofcrap to peoplewho use the f-word (as
in "fag"),like Brett Ratnerand KobeBr1,ant,
but evengay men walk around calling our
closestfemalefriends "frg hags."Well, it's
time for an alternative.
I've beendoing the samething, walking
around talking about and bitching about 'Tag
hags"forlaars, I evencalledKelly Ripaa
"celebrityfag hag"yesterday. figurcd ifthe
I
girls called themselves
that and the guys
called themeelves
that" what's tbe big deal?
After Gawkercommenters
raisedsome
r:oncerns, actually thought about it. First,
f
it's degradingto womer by calling them
"hags"and, if you've spent any time with the
women who hangaround gaysin NewYork
you'll know that they are often more
attractive and well put together than the
averagelady.
Also, it refers to their gay friends as "fags"
somethingwe wouldu't eventolerate if Liza
Minnelli called us tbat (maybeJudy but not
Liza!). When we toss it arould to eachother,
that's kind of OtrLbut it's taken on a life of its
owa, Lilceso many other terrns that oaceyou
would only hear iu Chelsea West
or
Hollywood, "fag hag' hasgotten into the mainstream,so if average{read:straight) Americans
out there atreusing it, maybewe needsomethingwith a better message,
The problem is the alternativesall suck. Most peoplefight for "fruit fly," but it is so cutesyand
silly and stupid. And, just Iike a flock of screeching
bachelorettesia a gay strip club, a fly is also a
pest,a nuisance.The girls that hang around with prcdominantly gay men usually aren't that at
all. I also hate the gir{s who are all "my gays"or "my best gay" tike their ftiend is somesort of
accessory, he'ssomebedarzledPradapursewho you talte $hoppingand, every time you

Wait - it's hard not to look at the recent polls and think that the odds are very high that he rpill
be the nominee?Doesnt he meanit's hard not to look at the recent polls and think that the odils
are very high that he ruon? be the nominee?What kind of convoluteddeclarationof
overwhelmingparty support is that supposedto be, anyway?If this is the kind of mixed
messages
were getting this early in his campaign,Newt is all but a goner on election day. He
should try not being so decisivein public; it's really not a goodlook on him.
