I remember reading an article by a linguist that found instances of the word
"gay" used in the context of sexual preference as early as the 16th
century...

Of course, after all it's a known fact that homosexual people are more happy
by nature, hence a lot of heterosexual people are giving them a hard time.

But serious, we're not going to that level, are we ;-)

BTW I remember an old English actress that once lamented that she hated the
fact that the word gay was 'stolen' or at least that she couldn't use it
anymore without people giving her funny looks, is in:
'I'm feeling so gay today'
