It’s funny, I’ve had lesbian (well, lesbo, but) and gay used as slurs aimed at me, even though I’m neither. I’m queer. Queer never got used as a slur where I grew up, it was always “that’s so gay,” or “ew, you’re not a lesbo, are you?”

And I don’t think bisexual was on anyone’s radar outside of LGBT advocacy spaces, mostly anyone who was bi probably would’ve just been called a slut. Tranny got thrown around occasionally.

But if anyone at my K-12 schools knew the word queer, they would definitely have used it as a slur. They just didn’t know the word. Every word for non-straight sexuality has been used as a slur somewhere, and when you’re not straight, or suspected of not being straight, bigots looking to insult you will use all the slurs they do know, even if they don’t even know which ones actually apply.
