Nancy Ragin'

Some of you read that letter in the Weekly a while back all pissed off at me for using the phrase "nancy-boy."

Tonight, I asked my friend Dave, who's gay, if he thought I was a bigot for using it.

"How did you use it?" he asked.

"I was talking about the lead actor in ERAGON" I said.

"Well, he is," said Dave.

reminded me of getting slammed in a heavily PC environment (social work training) for using the phrase "mentally handicapped" instead of "people with learning difficulties" -

so I rang this guy I grew up with who had a (mild) mental handicap (as he had previously told me) he said, "The f---ing Government's got learning difficulties - I got a f---ing mental handicap" - he wasn't laughing mind, he really did think the government members all had learning difficulties, and he wasn't wrong...

That's what my sister refer to Shaun Cassidy and Parker Stevenson when she was a little girl as she called them "Nancy-Boys..."
