Wasn't there a popular show called "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy?"

And therein lies the inconsistency. I think the Q-word is now often associated with the foaming-at-the-mouth-protestor-Kansas-preacher-psycho-dude-types who spew their hate-venom at the gay community. From what I've been told by gay people, if it's the Q-word said in jest, you get a free pass. If it's used in anger...lights out.
