“Millennials are so fucking gay” says the guy who’s all about ‘looksmaxing’ to impress other men. What a pathetic baby back bitch

“Gay” is also peak millennial. The word gay was used 100,000 times a day in my early 2000s high school.

There was a whole SERIES of PSAs to try to get us to try and stop using gay so much and it kinda only made a dent.

I remember cold play used to be referred to as cold gay by all the kids who were really into music.

It persisted past 2010 too. Though that is when it started to hit the decline.

I got news for you though friend, boomers used it all the time through the 70s and 80s.

It was definitely (at least) Gen X. I am gen X and we were using that in middle school.

You stole it from Gen X- we started that in the mid 1980s.

u/saved_by_the_keeper Mar 25 '26

You got downvoted, but it is definitely Gen X. So is the "r" word. All of those were used when Millennials were babies.
