Why is the word "retard" allowed but the word "g­a­y" isn't?

1. Retard is ALWAYS an offensive word
2. G­­ay is used offensively but it's meaning isn't offensive


And if you're gonna say "being g­ay is inappropriate" it's only as inappropriate as you consider being straight.

And yet children are taught about straight people and g­a­y people are never mentioned.

"Retard is ALWAYS an offensive word"

That statement is REALLY offensive, actually.
Here's why:

"Retard" comes from the word "Retarded", which means "Delayed".
Retarded as an insult is referring to "Mental Retardation", which means that they have a mental disorder which stops them from learning.

In other words, you just called all Mentally Disabled people Really, Really, Really, Really, Really, Really, Really, Really stupid.

"Retard is ALWAYS an offensive word"

Only when you use it.

It's NEVER an offensive word when I use it.
Why?
Because...

These "Retards" are people too.

The word has become an offensive word only, and people with mental disabilities are offended when called that word.
