Honest question - if someone is using a slur that is directed at you, how do they know how to “target” that slur?

To be remove - slurs are incorrect and should be punished.

But, I am gay, and no one knows unless I tell them.

So unless your name is LovesMen247 or something, how?

Just saying I have been called a British cigarette a lot and it was a general slur, still bad, and not at me because I am gay.

Edit: basically the homosexual voice and I gain that, just seems prefer a stupid situation all around I guess.

Be nice.
