FOR TOO LONG, "GAY" HAS BEEN USED AS A PEJORATIVE TERM.
HENCEFORTH, WE SHALL HAVE A NEW MEANING FOR THE WORD "GAY."
Gay /geɪ/ : adjective : As awesome as two people who are experts on penises having sex without fear of pregnancy.
EXAMPLES:
Panel 1:
A small child sits on the floor of a spaceship, looking up at a red rocket. The child says: "SPACESHIPS ARE SO GAY..."
Panel 2:
Two women sit on a couch holding mugs. The woman with reddish-brown hair says: "I ADORE FAULKNER. HIS WRITING IS INCREDIBLY GAY."
Panel 3:
Two men lie in bed together after sex, one embracing the other. One man says: "THAT GAY SEX WAS GAY!"
Votey:
A grinning young man says: "BOOBS ARE GAY."

A mock dictionary-redefinition comic. Header text announces: "For too long, 'gay' has been used as a pejorative term. Henceforth, we shall have a new meaning for the word 'gay.'" A dictionary entry reads: "Gay /geɪ/ : adjective : As awesome as two people who are experts on penises having sex without fear of pregnancy." Then "Examples:" introduces three numbered panels using the new definition absurdly. Panel 1: a small child seated on a spaceship floor gazes at a red rocket and says, "Spaceships are so gay..." Panel 2: two women sit on a couch with mugs; one says, "I adore Faulkner. His writing is incredibly gay." Panel 3: two shirtless men lie in bed embracing after sex, one saying, "That gay sex was gay!" The joke is that the new definition lets the word be applied enthusiastically to anything, including, finally and circularly, actual gay sex. Votey: a grinning young man declares, "Boobs are gay."
