Re: Does this make me a prude?

[(Anonymous)]

So if you've never heard anyone call someone a lesbian except as an insult, that means you should treat all instances of being called gay as deep personal insults, without thinking of what "lesbian" means or that maybe the people using it as an insult are the judgey ones?

Think about it for a second. What's so terrible about being a prude, that OP needs defending from it? They can be prude. That's okay. Why are you buying into everyone else saying it's horrible?

Oh stop. Not you're just being ridiculous. You could start this bullshit with any insult. So if you've never heard anyone call someone a racial slur except as in insult that means you should treat all instances of being called a racial slur as a personal insult? MADNESS!

Unless you are honestly saying that you have used and heard "prude" as a positive non-insult use, and then I'd just really like to know where and in what kind of community you've isolated yourself in.

Re: Does this make me a prude?

Seriously. I'd like to know where that person is from that the idea of it being an insult is so inconceivable to them.

Re: Does this make me a prude?

nayrt (but from further upthread)

For what it's worth, Wikipedia says it's "generally considered a pejorative". Even aside from my own personal experience, I hear it used as an insult in (popular) TV shows/movies all the time. It's not like the only people using it that way are the people that the couple people who have commented in this thread know.

I don't think it's really that the OP needs "defending" from the label so much as they don't fit it. Not wanting to discuss your sex life at work, with people you don't know that well, does not make someone a prude.
