[KeetWeet]

WOW...we really are in the last days...bad is good & good is bad...smh =/ oh well now i am wondering about Anderson Cooper now hmmmmm ;) LOLOL

[dirtyfishydishcloth]

if you honestly believe that referring to someone,or something lame or stupid as "gay" is not contributing to hate against gay people, i suspect you also have your head up your ass with a lot else. all you have to do is read the comments of all these people who think Anderson Cooper shouldn't have said anything, and remained silent.

[purplenurps]

God damn can we not joke about anything?

[morrisday133]

Electic cars are gay

[angelhikaru01]

@Blessedheart

that is so true.....a word that we used when we we're in middle school on up "that's gay" now is offensive when its not meant to talk about sexual preference its just meant to say its less than what it is or not manly or stupid...its called a different form of speech and last time i checked speech was suppose to be free....next thing u know we'll be wearing the same gray uniforms in society and being told what to do and people are okay with that aparently...we're loosing freedom.

[BreakerNBGD]

i am NOT seeing that movie.....no room for racism, homophobia, bigotry etc in 21st century

[purplenurps]

@BreakerNBGD It's a joke

[roswellatup]

anderson is so gay, he should come out

[gingerbreadcorpses]

Trifling how many heterosexists are trying to justify their inbred trailer trash vocabulary on this comment board.

[Blessedhart]

Okay listen. Gay means happy and lighthearted. When used the way he used it, the word means not tough (manly) but rather it is light and happy. Guys want tough cars. the sad part is that he had to clarify in the movie because people have lost understanding of the English language. It is people making a big deal about it that are offensive. Apparently the word Gay has been hijacked and can no longer be used.

[hardmod777]

That vid is gay.

[Ariadne404]

Anderson Cooper is gay.

[jonutarr]

gay

[gotchagain1]

Anderson Cooper is gay.....and I mean lame.....unless he's a fudge packer.................rotflma­o!!!!!!!!

Gay used to mean happy

Fag was a cigarette

Coke was cola

oh well, once Anderson stops his weekly prostrate exams, he'll get a sense of humor

[SFHarry]

How would Vince Vaughn like it if the phrase was changed to something derogatory to him. We have made a video showing that:

youtube.com/watch?v=6jLLaCywSm­c

It's easy to think it is just comedy when it's done to someone else. Especially if it is a group to which you are used to making fun.

[bazlez]

This argument is gay. 

[1Rockbilly]

Listen in on the conversation of any kid between the ages of twelve and 25 and you will hear this statement repeatedly. This is gay that is gay. So Hollywood lifts a line from society and shows it back to society and all of a sudden in is inappropriate?

Well that is just gay! Not homosexual gay... but like happy gay you know "gay"!

[vendeta912]

“Let me add my voice of support to the people outraged by the bullying and persecution of people for their differences, whatever those differences may be. Comedy and joking about our differences breaks tension and brings us together. Drawing dividing lines over what we can and cannot joke about does exactly that; it divides us. Most importantly, where does it stop.” ~Vince Vaughn

[usarocks69]

Anderson cooper is gay, not homosexual gay but my parents are chaperoning the dance gay.. well actually hes just gay, and hes taking this stance as a way of boosting his ratings (which are slumming right now) back into the positive.. in no way is his stance right either, banning words or jokes or ways of thinking will just make things worse. it divides people more... and oh right i have free speech to say what i want, i dont make fun of gays (other then copper) but if i want to i can and will

[pugay69]

Vince Vaughn is a murder because of all the suicides that he is causing.

[DarkKnightBob1o1]

@pugay69 indeed. His films make we wanna kill myself when I watch them.

Anyone who kills themself JUST because vince vaughn said it, are fucking idiots.

[fanuvgod1]

I love it. Just after this Anderson Cooper interviews Eminem and doesn't hassle him about his constant use of the word "fag" and "faggot". Hypocrisy at it's best.

[Kevstar19]

Ughhh why must people overreact. It's only going to worsen feelings toward gay people. :(

[FunnelIntoOblivion]

So you can't use the word gay to describe something lame. Wait...lame is disparaging to the crippled. How about using NIGGER...as in, "The Dilemma looks so nigger!" If you are particularly pc, you could say, "That's So Raven!"

[brandnutopian]

C'mon, people! That's comedy entertainment!! Vince Vaughn is one funny motherfucker and I bet most homosexuals wouldn't have a problem with that joke. In general, queers have a sense of humor about themselves, at least those who admit it publicly (Hello, Anderson!); they have to just to make it through the day.

[EricIndiana]

Anderson Cooper's gay.

[34601k]

Just lost all my respect for Anderson Cooper. Its just a word. 

[Lsea0041]

WOW, why do people have to be so hypersensitive about these things? I can see why some people may be upset, but common, Its a joke in a movie. No one really sits there and dissects jokes down like that. People need to lighten up a little.

[xaviqaz]

@Lsea0041 Political correctness is the new fundamentalism in Western societies. Forget religion.

[bevon17]

I guess its just not a big deal to me.

I see the point behind it but i dono.

maybe I'm just too comfortable with say "this is gay"

the thought of gay people does not cross my mind. I actually me

"this sucks"

political correctness is going overboard, but I suppose it has its purpose this time.

just i dono im a bit split on it.. im sure I'll lean towards agree though in time

[mrjamesb562]

Chill the F*ck out ,it's a Comedy,.. Today because of P.C, Movies like Blazing Saddles or Richard Pryor albums "Can't" or Won't be made and I think that We are Losing something because of it...

[briandee]

Anderson Cooper's barking up the wrong tree.

Vince Vaughn's joke had nothing wrong with it, as he himself was pointing out exactly what he meant by the term...so yeah, I say the joke's all good and that if Anderson Cooper wants to make himself useful he should go after real people who do real hard to homosexuals like the bullies at school or people who commit hate crimes.

[2PaperTigers]

I thought the line was funny. I think anyone comfortable with their own sexual identity can clearly think for themselves and see this as a joke.

[podge187]

Where has this guy been? People have been callings 'gay' for the last decade!! He finally hears it over the weekend? Bollox.

[TheUnusedCrayon]

If parents raised their children to be comfortable with who they are, kids wouldn't kill themselves. I'm sure a lot of us have been bullied at one point or another, but in the end, we get over it because really, just because somebody says "You're a faggot" doesn't mean anything in the end. It's an attempt at an insult, and the only people who take it seriously are those who can't cope with their own body.

[briandee]

@TheUnusedCrayon

True that.

I think it is bad to be bullied, but it's something all of us go through. And I think if someone out there thinks they've never been bullied, well then that's all the more reason why they have no place to be speaking about the matter. If someone called me a faggot or something, sure I'd dislike it, but I wouldn't kill myself over it. I'm not gay, but I know that I'm comfortable enough with myself so that bullied doesn't make me want to kill myself.

[etblanken15]

People have been using the term "gay" for "lame" for a LONG time. Everyone has the freedom of speech and opinion. He even said that the way he used that word wasn't meant towards homosexuals, so I don't see the big deal. Yes, the bullying and suicides have been absolutely terrible situations, and I feel bad for the families of the children. But this has nothing to do with bullying.

[BigDATYMac]

I don't think there's a single parent that thinks "I want my kid to grow up to be a HOMO-SEXUAL." Kids are being brainwashed with this "It's ok to be gay" crap. You know what I say...IF YOU LIKE TO SUCK OFF ANOTHER MAN AND YOU LIKE GETTING BONED BY A BIG STIFF ONE IN YOUR #2, KEEP THAT TO YOURSELF AND AWAY FROM MY KIDS. Why do you feel so compelled to let the whole world know that you're a HOMO? Here's a fact. The overwhelming majority of people IN THE WORLD are OPPOSED TO HOMOSEXUALITY!!!

[mahhhk15]

@BigDATYMac an overwhelming majority of people in 1300 thought the world was flat, they were still wrong

[BigDATYMac]

@mahhhk15, oops sorry for mentioning the fact that the majority of the world opposes homosexuality. Oh, here's another fact for you...the majority of the United States opposes Obama's health care reform...so what's your point? You think science is going to prove that we should have all been born homosexuals? You think the whole world is going to wake up tomorrow and think that it's ok to be gay? I doubt it!

[mahhhk15]

@BigDATYMac uhhhh no, i doubt everyone will wake up gay tomorrow, but for those who do lets let them have a little space and freedom to live how they want. Obama's health plan was pretty bad, but so is our current plan. Idk what you mean by science is going to prove we should be homosexuals. Homosexuality is in nature and theres nothing that unusual about it except that its different from what you do and your scared of it.

[thatslifeee]

@BigDATYMac Here's a fact: an overwhelming majority of people in the world think Lady Gaga has talent. So shut the fuck up. The majority is almost always wrong. You're saying homosexuality is wrong which I disagree with I think it's pretty gross and don't plan on fucking any guys any time soon, but to say it's wrong is totally ignorant. Also... you might want to fix your "Caps Lock" key.

[amindbody]

stop with the political correctness. either we have freedom of speech or not. you are imprudent if you are hurt by words; they only have as much power as you give them. people should learn or be taught that you are letting some idiot affect you by their verbal invective and it makes you look stupid.

[bigbigblue111]

@amindbody agreed.

[mkygod]

What's the difference between using the word "gay" and the word "lame" in the same context? Both words describe a minority group and a different meaning when used as slang. "Retarded" is also another one of these words that people have a problem with. I'd bet that a majority of people that a problem with the "gay" usage are straight people who overly concerned with being politically correct and the homosexuals just wish that they would shut up about it

[briandee]

@mkygod

I really agree with that.

Not only that, but the whole "retarded is a bad word" thing is way out of control. Retard is not only a noun, but it's also a verb, so when used in the passive tense, "retarded," it just means something that is slowed down or less developed than the things around it...so in that usage it really has nothing to do with mental retardation.

[thangQanime]

@briandee Actually retard as we use it, is an adjective. Because we use it to describe others. Not the verb "retard" which means to slow down....

[brazosjaime]

Looks like some one is having a Blonde Moment - Oops - What did I just say.

[fanagot]

Homophobes are having a field day, of course. You can imagine racists giggling at racist jokes...

[legunncat]

Maybe if Anderson comes out of the closet Vince will drop the joke. Sounds like a win-win situation.

[Kris10Marie9]

i love you Anderson but you not coming out of the closet .. is gay . Your setting just as bad of an example for gay people

[texen03]

so...Dressing like queens,half naked,shouting GAY Pride in a Parade is ok..but this isnt?? Gays...get over yourself..ok.

[zaldivarjohn]

You were shoked? You are worried of the children of America? Give me a break!!!!!!

You are loosing credibility. TOLERANCE! TOLERANCE! TOLERANCE!

[borntobewilder9]

Poor little cry-baby Anderson.  You know what's gay? You for all the intolerant things you say on your fucked up liberal show. I remember you talking about the Tea Party folks being a bunch of tea baggers. Who would know more about tea-bagging than you, POS! Go cry a river, hypocrite! Gay's say that they are all about tolerance! Yeah, right!

[ismini14]

anderson cooper is gay, smoking hot but also flaming gay. so gay he would bash vince vaughn for using the word gay.

[MeltnButta]

wow, pathetic that the gay agenda thinks they can censor every part of American life and culture. No, you can't. You (gays) don't run the USA (yet). So screw off. The word wasn't used in a gay bashing way. You (gays) are always trying to stir the pot of hate and gay bashing even when there is not an issue present. PATHETIC LOSERS.

[zaldivarjohn]

I'm getting tired of the word homophobia. Fear of homos. Give me a break, it's more like sick and tired of all the gay-boy HETEROPHOBIC intolerance!

If you disagree kiss my ass!!!

[SuzukiluvrRX11]

I wouldn't worry about the movie.The things probbably going to make a few million the first weeked , and then tank.

[BigDATYMac]

@SuzukiluvrRX11, you're right. Anderson Cooper just made Vince Vaughn a lot of money. Had it not been all the media attention, I wouldn't have known that Vince Vaughn was coming out with this new movie. Thanks Anderson! And since I oppose gays, I think I'm going to tell all my friends about it and we might have to go see it when it first comes out.

[NarutoNariko]

One more reason to watch The Dilemma.

[kulprit1120]

It's all about context people. This country is way too sensitive.

Lighten up or shut the fuck up. :)

[MrVictorClark]

Wow, I agree with Anderson Cooper on this subject (THAT's something I never thought to say! lol). I hate it when people think it's alright to use the term "gay" as a synonym for "stupid" or "bad" or "lame". It's like if I were to say something is bad, I don't say "That's so Blue-Eyed" or "That's so Left-Handed". That would be offensive and make no sense, and calling something "Gay" in that context is no different.

It's alright to say "Gay", just make sure you mean the literal term for it.

[zaldivarjohn]

@MrVictorClark

Literal term of Gay? Why yes of course. GAY a:)happily excited

b:)keenly alive and exuberant. ☺, a he wants to be she. Satisfied? probably not.

[bigbigblue111]

@MrVictorClark I'm both blue-eyed and left handed and I'm not offended at all by your statement. Anyone who's comfortable with their sexuality should be able to handle a simple joke. We cant start censoring every word we don't like.

[PanWolven]

@MrVictorClark The literal term being 'happy'? Let's keep in mind that the word has an original meaning that has nothing to do with homosexuality. :)

[thangQanime]

@PanWolven That was my exact point on another video. when it meant happy it had nothing to do with homos but now when its something negative its apparently a direct jab to homosexuals? BIG DOUBLE STANDARD!

[PanWolven]

@thangQanime Glad I'm not the only one who sees it. The movement actually picked that word for themselves knowingly, because they wanted the positive connotations. To be surprised that a word that's already changed meaning once can do it again might not be exactly a double standard, but it's definitely naïve.

[xaviqaz]

@MrVictorClark political correctness is gay

[peggylp21]

sorry guys I dont see the problem, ppl say things r gay when they r not.. to lighten the mood, ppl say other ppl r retarded when they r not, because they r simply acting a fool, ppl say lots of things n its no offense to those that r truely of those things! Call me whatever but when somethings funny its funny! Stop making issues when there arent any!

[ShamoneDonavan]

Gay is not a bad word lol  This is so stupid. Gay people call themselves Gay!! They have Gay Pride Parades!! Doesn't make any sense what he's talking about. They like the word apparently.

[LatumWay]

@ShamoneDonavan They use gay as a purely descriptive term. Gay = same sex attraction. Vaughn (or whoever wrote that joke) used it to mean gay = bad.

[ShamoneDonavan]

@LatumWay That sounds like cave man talk.  I gay, I say gay, gay good. You not gay, you say gay, gay bad. To me it just doesn't make any sense to give the, I guess "G" word, this whole "N" word defense. It may be wrong but I feel like "thats gay" & "thats retarded" have been being said so long that its really been accepted. I've never even heard this argument being made before personally. It just seems like something to exploit while the gay marriage & dont ask dont tell debate is going on.

[LatumWay]

@ShamoneDonavan It doesn't matter whether you think its 'cave man talk'. I explained the problem. You haven't refuted it.

[ShamoneDonavan]

@LatumWay There is nothing to refute. Words have conflicting meanings. The only thing you, or anyone else can debate, is opinions which is....a waste of time. So enjoy!

[LatumWay]

@ShamoneDonavan I'm well aware that words can have conflicting meanings. Pointing that out is to miss the point entirely. You are fully aware of exactly why the word 'gay' is used in this way. In this case, the two meanings are still very much still linked. And its a link of homophobia.

[dontstealthisusernam]

@LatumWay Actually, he's making fun of the usage gay = bad. "Electric cars are gay. Not homosexual gay, but my parents are chaperoning the dance gay." It's making fun of the fact that people use the word gay = bad AND homosexual. I'd say the joke isn't that funny, but it's not horribly offensive. However, I do agree with Anderson Cooper that the word gay should only mean homosexual, and not a negative connotation. The joke itself isn't bad, but society's attitudes toward gay = bad is.

[LatumWay]

@dontstealthisusernam You aren't making any sense. How is it making fun of the usage? He may be making a distinction between the two common meanings, but the point is that the two meanings ARE LINKED. The second usage came out of the first. Homophobes saw that 'gay' meant 'homosexual', so then started using 'gay' to mean 'bad'. That is a very real link and its a homophobic one.

[dontstealthisusernam]

@LatumWay Alright, I didn't do a great job of explaining, sorry.

Anyways, it's a commonly used word, though it should just mean homosexual. However, the gay community needs to stop getting so upset over the most trivial of things. Most gays actually don't have a problem with the expression. Why? If you let it get to you, IT WILL NEVER CHANGE. So, the joke is making humor out of its usage.

There are some gays that even have a problem with the word "homosexual". Give me a fucking break.

[LatumWay]

@dontstealthisusernam A. So gays should just accept this offensive usage? For some kind of twisted 'greater good'? The usage of this word in this way is contributing to bullying and discrimination. Its doing very real harm.

[LatumWay]

@dontstealthisusernam B. I disagree that most gays have no problem with it, but even if that were true, it wouldn't change my argument. They'd be just as wrong.

C. Again, you failed to explain why its making fun of its usage.

D. The gays that have a problem with 'homosexual' are idiots. However thats got nothing to do with the argument over the usage of the word gay.

[dontstealthisusernam]

@LatumWay A. Alright, you're right. B. Most I've heard from don't take issue, but you raise a fair point. C. I know, I've given up trying to explain. If the explanation can't be explained, then it's not a very good explanation. D. Agreed.

How much are we going to censor comedy, though? When will it stop? It's a stupid joke, and Vince Vaughn isn't funny. Why are people getting so upset? Because it's Hollywood saying "that's gay" instead of many other people who say it constantly?

[LatumWay]

@dontstealthisusernam Firstly, I never said it should be banned. If they were committed to keeping it in the trailer/film, they have every right to have it in. It just makes them look homophobic. If they are alright with that, then good for them. Have fun being bigots.

And people are getting up set for the same reason I explained in my previous comment. It tells people its alright to use the word in that way and it contributes to prejudice, discrimination and bullying.

[dontstealthisusernam]

@LatumWay Thanks for the explanations, but yeah, in the short-run, no harm done, but in the long-run, is an increase in prejudice worth one stupid joke? However, I think Anderson Cooper shouldn't have commented, because it only gives this movie more publicity. I hadn't even heard of it before Anderson went on Ellen Degeneres and commented.
