That was the impression that i got by reading stuff yesterday, but it didn't seem crystal-clear. It would be very ironic, in my opinion, if Jews were trying to insist on a term that was originally intended as a euphemism by someone who was bigoted against them.

The term "Queer" has sometimes been embraced in this way by gay people or the gay community, though I haven't seen much of the term in years. Why by queer when you can be gay?
