Not really a matter of being accepted, the word still is & will continue to be in use in many parts of the World, it is the context & the person using the term that causes an issue it seems.

As to calling your Dog "gay black Queer" fill yer boots it's your Dog. I also believe it used to be called "the right to free speech" to say what you want without being condemned as some kind of "ist" or "phobe", after all they are only words, they aren't being directed at anyone specifically (unless you count your Dog) but just try it & see what happens in our happy land of diversity & equality.

It's a funny old World isn't it, where one mans words are racist, yet another mans right to free speech.
