Then you are using the word incorrectly. Since yoga is a practice and not a being, yoga cannot "be" gay in the sense of "happy." It can only be "gay" in the pejorative sense.

Yoga is a very good fitness discipline. By practicing yoga on a regular basis, it will extend your life and keep your body in good shape. I had to quit going to classes because of my work schedule but I liked going because there was only one other male in the class and he was like me, kept a very close eye on how the women were doing.

That is because you are a nice guy and want to help the 'weaker' sex in any way that you can... good for you, you are their knight in shining armor, keep up the good work!
Oh my... now you've devolved from name calling to parrot mode. That's quite frightening. What next? The old, "I am rubber, you are glue" line? Or maybe the "I know you are, but what am I?" line?

I know exactly what it means. I'm just showing you how childish you are. If that wasn't so, I wouldn't be answering the comment because you would have been grown up enough not to have written it.
So you don't consider telling dauguy that she said something because she's a jealous fat slob to be ad hominem? If you don't, then no, I don't think you do know what it means.
You consider THAT comment to have been "grown up?" *sheesh*

Gay is not a pejorative. When used as one, it is bigotry.
by gay, i mean happy :)
dont be so quick to Judge.
Are you gay?
Right. Because the common slang term means happy. Oh, wait...no, it doesn't.
Look at the results of your other poll. And you didn't mean happy, you just got busted.
1. having or showing a merry, lively mood: gay spirits; gay music.
2. bright or showy: gay colors; gay ornaments.
3. given to or abounding in social or other pleasures: a gay social season.
4. licentious; dissipated; wanton: The baron is a gay old rogue with an eye for the ladies.
Any of these sound a lot like yoga? That's right, they don't.
5. homosexual.
6. of, indicating, or supporting homosexual interests or issues: a gay organization.
–noun
7. a homosexual person, esp. a male.
As I said--and when used to describe something as undesirable, it is a pejorative.
Then you are using the word incorrectly. Since yoga is a practice and not a being, yoga cannot "be" gay in the sense of "happy." It can only be "gay" in the pejorative sense.
There is a definition for the adverbial use of 'gay' which might, with a lot stretching (pun not intended!) fit here.
But probably not.
What? What has homo- / sexuality to do with yoga? I am thankful though you did not use an exclamation mark. Yes, I love doing yoga. No, I am NOT gay.

Good comment crawling pig fucker.
You too.
Perv.
You say that because you are probably a fat slob and are jealous because nobody wants to look at you. Eat your heart out.
Ad hominem.
Ad hominem.

Ad hominem.
You keep using that word... I do not think it means what you think it means. ;o)

Plawler, the comment was direct to dauguy and not you. Unless you are a fat slob too and it got your goat for that very reason.
I'm sure if she had something to say about it she can say it herself.
The fact that it was not directed at me does not make it any less ad hominem (or any more grown up).
