- Even I wasn't aware that 'queer' had a special definition used by a tiny group of "feminists". They are so insular that they do not realise that the world at large doesn't know their jargon.
What does the 'Queer' mean? Survey says..
If you surveyed 100 people in London right now, I would bet that this is what people would say:99 - gay [offensive]1 - peculiar0 - the Josh/skepchick/social justice warrior definitionWhen I was finally made aware of the third definition of 'queer', it was through 'word of mouth', on twitter. I didn't see it in a dictionary or a website.I watch loads of British & American TV.I am familiar with many dialects, including Geordie, Cockney, Scouse and Australian. (In Oz, 'thongs' are flip-flops, not frilly knickers) 
@SpokesGay Oh, I see. Sort of a pile of noxious fluff there, isn't it? "I have no objection to X" [mocks X]- @SpokesGay There's a point at which "I never said that" reminds me of a kid in the backseat saying gleefully, "I'm not touching you!!!"
- @SpokesGay All this while stabbing his fingers at his companion in a near-poke that doesn't quite connect. Knock it off, kid.
- @SpokesGay I'm not without sympathy for people who are assumed to have positions they don't have based on stuff they didn't say; been there.
- @SpokesGay At least she's made this middle-aged, mortgage-paying, cholesterol-watching lady feel young again. 'Queer' is transgressive! Hah!
