Campaign against the “That’s So Gay” phrase.
Posted by RONIN/SS | Filed under Ads
Interesting campaign against the phrase “That’s So Gay” in teenage vernacular.
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) teens experience homophobic remarks and harassment throughout the school day, creating an atmosphere where they feel disrespected, unwanted and unsafe. Homophobic remarks such as “that’s so gay” are the most commonly heard; these slurs are often unintentional and a common part of teens’ vernacular. Most do not recognize the consequences, but the casual use of this language often carries over into more overt harassment. - thinkb4youspeak.com.
