ORIGIN: The word "fag" originally meant a bundle of sticks. It first became a word used to refer to gay men and lesbians during [World War II]. When the Nazis burned gays and lesbians alive at the stake, they placed a faggot ("a bundle of sticks") at the foot of the stake and ignited. Jews were not the only ones murdered by the Nazis -- Nazis also killed the gays and lesbians and the disabled. Next time you use it, you might want to think about [what you are] implying (ie. that the person referred to as a fag should die). The word is also used by some gay men themselves, much in the same way that the word N**** is used by some people of [African descent]. In these cases, the using these epithets are seen as methods of political, social, and conscious subversion.
