Is the term homosexual acceptable or is the acceptable word now queer or gay?
Views on this subject are quite split. Most people think that the term 'homosexual' is archaic and offensive; however, some gay people (usually older) may claim the label 'homosexual', while most younger gay people generally claim the label 'gay'. The term queer can be seen as offensive by older people who were called this as a derogatory slur when they were younger, before it became a more inclusive, acceptable word for either an identity in itself or the entire LGBTQ community. However, it is still up for debate. It's important to note that the modern meaning of the word 'queer' is a broader term, and does not exclusively refer to gay people.

There is no such thing as a gay life style. This is an out-dated term for gay people who do not live in the closet. Today, we know that being gay is an orientation, not a life style. Gay people live the same kinds of lives that non-gay people live.
