Best Answer

For homosexual men:

Offensive: Fag, Sodomite, Homogenital, fairy, pixie, pervert

Inoffensive: Gay, queer

Queer could also sometimes be offensive.

For homosexual women:

Offensive: Dyke, Sodomite, man, whore

Inoffensive: Lesbian, Sapphist

Sapphist could also sometimes be offensive. However, it is obscure. Lesbian is by far the most common word.

As for other types of people:

Transgender doesn't mean gay. It means acting in gender-variant behaviour (such as men acting like women).

Transsexual doesn't mean homosexual either. It means identifying as the opposite gender (different but not necessarily distinct from transgender, which is any significant and unusual gender variance.

Bisexuals can be attracted to either men or women.

Homosexuals were not widely tolerated anyway; most preferred to keep it secret, and those that knew about another's homosexuality just blocked it out and pretended they didn't. Hitler viewed homosexuals as another "contamination" of the human race and treated them accordingly, the same way he treated crippled or retarded people, Jews and communists: they were excluded from other "normal" people and society, tortured, experimented on, forced to work in labour camps and often simply killed.
