Lyric discussion by Mindgrapes 

I'm not sure that the people who are offended by her use of the term are accusing her of hating gay people. She probably has a million gay friends who tell her they approve of its use. To be clear, nobody is saying Katy Perry is a bigot.

Nobody is arguing what the song is about, either. I know the song isn't about how she hates gay people. I realize it's meant as a light-hearted stab at an ex-boyfriend. Wonderful. I'm not arguing that at all.

The thing is, she used the term "gay" as an insult. It's not much different than when people scream "Jesus Christ" when they slip in the shower. Yes, she couldn't be more well-meaning. Once again, I'm sure she has a billion gay friends, all of whom approve of the song.

I just don't like that she's going to encourage the 12-year-olds to keep using their already-favorite phrase.

'nobody is saying katy perry is a bigot' I am. hypocritical, homophobic bitch.

Deltasunlight, you're so stupid. If some one says 'that's so gay' it doesn't mean they're homophobic. I'm bi and I don't think this song homophobic and, being a die hard Katy Perry fan, I know Katy Perry DOES have a million gay friends who think this song is hilarious as do I.

I know you're trying to be all politically correct, but in actuality, you're embarrassing yourself by being a self-righteous bitch. Get a life and appreciate the song.

P.S. I agree with mindgrapes.

hurhurhur faggot
