Years ago when i was at school it was considered ok to laff at gays. Peeps despised them fer taking it up the arris, or at least wanting to kiss boys etc. If yer did something wrong or you were a bit different, then you were considered gay.
Back then it was an insult to call someone or something gay. Nowadays it's a badge of honour.
Years later the Freelander was born. It was different (betterer) to traditional rusty 4x4's, and called gay fer this reason. Despised by fellow land rover owners fer being a breath of fresh air and an insight into the future of land rover development. Hence why it is referred to by the unwashed on ere as a g*ylander.
They're gay as in happy. Not as in taking it up the eggsause.

i aint - just stating try one and make up yo own mind.
2 gay men on TV the other week kissing... I came in the room and commented "couple of queers"... my eldest looked at me and said "what does queer mean?"... when I was younger that was what we called gay lads... Obviously times have moved on!
Only messing
I do like freelander but i think it will have to go at some point, just isn't practical for all of us.

Remember that one. Also gay lord and shirt lifter. Them were the days...
Umm... hadn't even considered a FL2... other than the boot how do they compare to the FL1?

An elephant? as in elephants trunk, drunk? so you can fit a drunk in the trunk?
That's it... they where just various 'normal' terms for a gay male... all very PC now.
I find it worrying about the amount of kids now wanting to change gender too and that they specify which 'terms' they want to be refered to as... the world seems to have gone mad.

Your previous post confirms that too.

Ours were yoyo's, football stickers and little troll figures. How times have changed.
