In a nutshell, language is what enables us to make sense of ourselves, to share meanings in common within society, and to exercise power for good or evil. When we are asked to extinguish the existing meaning of something by attaching new ones to it, we curiously want to know and understand why we should do this before we agree to it. However, when we find that language is being changed furtively and with particular political intent designed to serve the interests of a particular group and to diminish those of others, we tend to become very suspicious. We rightly complain, expose and decry the stealth because it indicates to us that those behind its use have something to hide from us. So what happens when homosexualists try to employ this strategy through the media and they get caught out? The short answer is that they get cranky and do everything they can to muzzle anyone who attempts to point this out.
