Well, given that for enons the homosexual community - whatever that may be,
as opposed to the approximately 10% of all of us who are homosexual - had
plenty of insulting names and words stuck to them by the bigots amongst us,
I, for one, figure they deserve to appropriate a few words.

But, just for the record, I don't think you need to worry about losing the
word "pride" to "them." Those who want to can still take "pride" in being
tough, gay bashing, Amurkin heterosexuals. ;-)
