Is it homophobic though to call someone a maggot if they are not homosexual ? Surely more an insult.Russ wrote:If i called someone a maggot at work I'd be fired and ostracizedNeill_M wrote:3 week ban (reduced from 6 week starting point) for Mr Bastereaud for his choice of words on Sunday v Treviso - misses the Scarlets game and the 1st 6N game v Ireland.

Different cultures and languages have different meanings for words (even if they are technically the same word) and different subtexts for what is acceptable.
F aggot, often shortened to fag, is a pejorative term used chiefly in North America primarily to refer to a gay male. Alongside its use to refer to gay men in particular, it may also be used as a pejorative term for a "repellent male" or to refer to women who are lesbian. Its use has spread from the United States to varying extents elsewhere in the English-speaking world through mass culture, including film, music, and the Internet.
It may also be used as a generic insult, for example, "idiot", although more offensive in nature.
