great topic. I would love to have heard more of how you would most effectively present this. Just 'regular person' interviews, any writers/academics/particular figures in the community who bring particular historical perspective or knowledge? So many angles to cover would need a wide variety of interviews by age, race, culture, sex, etc. Would you be able to keep it to a short format? Some fun visuals with words might be a component to think about too. Another angle that would be interesting would be asking a bunch of high school students what they think or random people on the street, not queer identified.
I sort of thought no one said this anymore, I know I heard it when I was in school, but thought we were passed this. At Christmas time this year I heard my 12 year old nephew's friends saying it and I was shocked. I think it's a great idea, looking forward to seeing how you explore it.

Very interesting! I'm interested in hearing what all groups have to say, especially the different age groups.

fav t-shirt statement at pride last year said:
"Homophobia is so gay"
If that ain't appropriation, I dunno what is!
Loved it!
