i agree! right on for duff man. honestly, i'm 15, and i HATE that word. to say ''that's so gay'' usually implies that something is stupid, which is highly offensive. honestly.

that and ''that's so retarded'' and calling someone a fa**** pisses me off. its so derogatory. everyone who uses it should grow the fck up.

Hilary Duff is gay for even doing this nonsense. Duff is beat. She just comes across as a condescending bitch. In fact maybe every time we think something is "bad" we say, that's so "bitch who used to have a TV show on Disney and then fell off the face of the earth after a failed music career and is now clinging to the spotlight by putting out dumb PSA's like this." I mean come on people, Duff could have chosen any number of SERIOUS topics to address, but she chose this?

Gay has just become one of those words that has taken on a different meaning. It happens over generations, get over it and stop whining about it.. or should I say "knock it off"

SO HAPPY this campaign was created, but please tell me there's more spokespeople involved. i don't know how much pull hilary duff has with people anymore, so breaking ground with this will be all the more difficult if it's just her.

@ Stephanie: So you're what, thirteen years old?

There's a difference between being PC and not being a douchebag. This stuff falls into the latter category.

WTFever .

I've been saying that since I've been like 7–as well as "that's retarded" way before everyone started getting all PC and shit.

Too bad.

thank god! I was in the world of difference program at my school. and one of the things we tried to teach was how hurtful some of the things we say are. like "thats gay" or "thats so retarded" its offensive, im glad someone is finally making that public

Seriously! I've been hearing that phrase for years and it pisses me off! Same with "retarted" – I hate that.

Thanks, Hil!

My brother is gay and it is SO disrespectful when people use that term. I literally want to punch someone. Good for the Duffster. She is a kick-a$$ girl.
