There was a marching song we sang then in primary school "The day is bright, it's bright and GAY, oh happy day, blah blah.." I don't think the word in there is what you're thinking. 1 Like 1 Share |

2aces:continue exposing your limited literacy capacity föol. It's not for you to bring up my kids into a simple argument, shame on you because if you were wise you would know that being "gay" had a completely different mean before the alphabet people came along and it wasn't even too long ago. If you had half a brain cell, a simple research would have told you Queen's Primer is an old book still using some old terms but no, go ahead and talk about my children because internet gave you muscles 5 Likes |

Queen Primer has outlived its usefulness. If you want your children to learn how to read fast, let them watch educative cartoons 1 Like |

2aces: Gay could mean alot of things: happy, glad and so on. You should maybe censor out the word if you are not comfortable with it. Or recoin it to glad or something else. PS I am a teacher too and my school uses the Queen Primer text. What I did was that I recoined the word to glad to douse the effect. The word was used 4 times in the book, so just check and do the needful. 2 Likes |

Artiiclebeast: The term in question bears several meaning and cannot be solely tied to homosexuality (you would understand my point if you check the context of usage) I doubt if the author had any malicious intent. I think the author is only trying to deliver on knowledge by providing an insight on the usage of the "ay" sound. Unfortunately, the author ought to have considered the cultural implications of this act. 2 Likes |

Dumb mofo Gay means being happy or joyous. Fanny used to be a a popular girls'name till society equated it to vagina.. Same with Pussycat.. now we can't use Pussy anymore to describe cat Infact it got so bad that.. the James Bond movie "Octopussy" almost had name change when they wanted to release 50 years box collection. Dick was a good boy's name.. we all know how that name has gone extinct.. 5 Likes |

It's an archaic language. The bible tries to eliminate archaic languages in it that's why people criticise it that it has changed over time but it has never changed in meaning!. 1 Like |
