I'll check back on this tomorrow. I'm gonna go call Sergio and ask him to come to my house so we can take a nice hot bubble bath together while listening to Celine Dion and then go watch reruns of Sex In the City and finally lay in bed spooning afterward. No homo.
On a serious note, I playfully called him a homo today because he thought I had cum in my hair. When school ended he didn't wait for me so we could walk to the bus together like we usually do.

Must be something said mostly amongst you whippersnappers. I've never heard anyone say it.

I remember Cris mentioning something about "no homo". I've never heard the phrase used.

No, it bemuses me, because it just serves to point out how insecure these guys are about their own sexuality. I find it ironic in that respect, it calls attention to exactly what they're trying to downplay.
When it's obviously done as tongue in cheek, then I find it funny.

I have never heard it said seriously, but it shows a level of self awareness/consciousness that previously hasn't been there in 'youthspeak'. It's like "that's what SHE said" right? It is just a meme that starts off cool, then goes lame, then gets funny in it's lamenss. It doesn't annoy me, but people I know who would say this are white and english and probably kind of homo.
I am against all developments in the english language in general. If anything we should be retrograding to when people spoke proper English and wore capes. 'Shawty' annoys me more.

I've never heard "no homo" or "shawty." I must be out of the loop.

Not out of the loop, you just have class, Megan.

PS: 'shawty' is dialectal. When African slaves were brought to the Americas many of them had trouble pronouncing the letter 'r' -- so they would replace it with the 'l' or 'w' sound. This remained in areas with high concentrations of slave descendants and influenced the vernacular. That's why people in Atlanta pronounce it like that; where the term originated.

I don't like shorty either, it's not the dialect that bothers me, it's calling women or anyone, shorty. It's like calling them skank, or it is when T pain uses it.

I don't really mind when people say it. It reminds me of a math equation. You have to use the phrase "no homo" to cancel out what you say. It just shows that they're really insecure about their sexuality and about themselves. This kid who rides my bus constantly says it and every time he says it, I say "You must be really insecure about your sexuality if you have to keep saying no homo every other sentence". He gets so bent out of shape it makes me LOL.
I've said many things that would fall into the "homo" category. The other day me and Iverly were discussing male singers and Enrique Iglesias got brought and if you know me, you have a pretty good idea of what I said about Enrique :D

It shouldn't be surprising Ella. Glow doesn't like "black people music"

I do like "black people music" lol. Stop making me sound racist. I don't like sexist, unimaginitive and unmusical music... that's most music. I like the Fugees and Hendrix? do they count?

@Alex. What do you think 'shorty' means? It's just a term of endearment. I don't like the word bloke, but I'm not complaining about its usage. :p

I thought it meant a hot woman who is up for sex and isn't necessarily in a relationship with the guy. The 'short' thing, to me, makes it sound demeaning. It just strikes me as reducing women to being called "fine ass chick".
Doesn't it mean that?
Why don't you like "bloke", it just means 'guy' and what's up with your avatar.

I don't have an avatar. ? No, it is a term of endearment just like baby. Unless you think baby is demeaning. Bloke sounds weird to me.

Cris, I think he's trying to say that the way rappers use shawty is demeaning. In rap, women aren't exactly treated well. They're treated like sex toys :S

I know, yes Mark. And usually that wouldn't bother me in the slightest. Women are for cleaning and cooking, not sex.
