"Some are calling [fruit] a slur" ??????

@jimvasta It's BEEN a slur. Fruit has been a homophobic slur used in the past and still used as a slur. You can not reclaim it. Most of tumblr can not "reclaim" this slur as they are not homosexual men, the people this slur was aimed at. Most homosexual men do not reclaim this word.

Pull your head out of your ass. Fruit isn't somehow now magically being claimed a slur. It's always been a slur when used at homosexual men. Teenagers just have never known that and have thought it was a heehee silly word for any q***r person. You're starting to see a lot more people say it is a slur IN RESPONSE to seeing teenagers and young adults flippantly throwing the word around as if it hasn't been used as a homophobic slur for decades before they were even able to access the internet.

#i can't fucking believe it #i fucking called it #i knew they would eventually claim fruit as their new word and then say it wasnt a slur.#and if it was it wasnt that bad. and actually its ur fault for feeling its a slur #like literally what the fuck #y'all are always saying remember ur roots and remember gay history and then act as if tiktok and tumblr is your education center #fucking disgusting #talk to an actual and I mean actual older gay individual. like one in their 50s+ and they will tell you fruit is a slur #hell even some 30yos will tell you this but I dont consider 30 to be an ''elder'' of any sort #you guys are disgusting trying to erase and edit history to try and minimize the hatred and revulsion gay individuals have gone throe #*through #fruit is a slur #fruity is a slur #I'm so sick of seeing teenage girls in fandoms and young adult women with dyed hair saying they're fruity #like actually shut all the way up you are not allowed to use that word. i never see gay men use this word.#straight men keep this out of your mouth too #as I've been saying ik they're gonna come after fairy and poof next and claim they're just silly cute words for 'the gays' that have no #history of hatred or homophobia in them trust us gais. ugh. disgusting.#we are living in a time #liberal homophobia #homophobia #q word #ugh im so tired and have 0 patience anymore
