Well, it used to mean pork-offal meatballs, and sometimes still does, so I don't think this is entirely true. But I do understand your point. I, myself, wouldn't actually use these words outside of an internet forum (and I don't mean chat forum) unless I was completely sure of the opinion of anyone I'm talking to who may be insulted by them. But, at the same time, I myself am not insulted by the multitude of derogatory terms referring to women or bisexuals unless I'm sure the delivery is of an insulting manner, and even then I'm more likely to laugh in their face than rise to the fight.
I wasn't saying that it was, and I'm sorry it came across that way. But at the same time, the communities on the internet that do use it the most are largely male, and as the majority of homophobia normally comes from men, surely it's a step in the right direction if these males no longer see or use the term as a specifically anti-gay insult? Perhaps that's naive or hopeful of me.
