How to say you are gay in spanish slang
How Do You Tell "GAY" In Spanish? And Other Languages?
Carryon1
I was wondering, to me at least, in English, lesbian seems too clinical and the everyday term “gay” is used as more familiar, with the other terms deemed offensive, (the s-word, f-word, q-word etc)
I tried Google but I don’t speak Spanish, so I was thinking, queer might come out as “happy” on a translator?
So how would you utter the equivalent in Spanish. Also do other languages have similar “non-offensive” and “non-clinical” terms for gays?

In my experience, there is no word in Spanish which is both blameless and distinctly un-clinical-sounding. “Homosexual” is the word for both “homosexual” and “gay.”
The English word “gay” is becoming more popular among Spanish speakers to state the latter connotation.

As we all know, there are certain things that we don’t get taught in school. If we want to be as educated as we can be, there are many things that we own to take it upon ourselves to learn through our own research and social interactions.
One enormous theme we could all learn a little more about is how to communicate with or respectfully discuss the LGBTQ+ people. And if you’re knowledge Spanish, what better way to expand your vocabulary than by learning the correct terms for sexuality and gender to support you understand people and conversations better!
Spain is one of the most culturally liberal countries in the world, legalising same-sex marriage in 2005, ten years before the UK and the US made the change in 2015. Argentina followed Spain in 2010, whilst Uruguay and most of New Mexico unified the club in 2013.

There is no non-offensive term for gay in tagalog, to be say “gay” in a non-offensive way you say “gay” in english, the two words for gay in Tagalog are “bakla” and “bading”, neither of which is without a negative connotation, bakla is probably more negative sounding than bading though.

Italian: Queer . There’s also “omosessuale”, but younger people usually utilize the English word.
In Dutch we still use “homo” - it’s not considered offensive.

.Italian is usually gay; there’s also finocchio “fennel,” but I’m not sure how derogatory that is.
Finocchio is definitely derogatory. It’s not off the scale offensive, but it’s not neutral.

which language is this please?Spanish: parchita, pargo, pato. It depends what country in SouthAmerica you are. These words belong to slang in Venezuela.
I assume that in Spanish we may not have an exact equivalent. Obviously, as Guest above pointed out, there are dozens of words to call a gay person. But in essence, the word "gay" is a neutral pos, it has no negative connotations (when used in the sense "homosexual", not in the sense "lame"). In Spanish, "homosexual" is a tad too technical, and the others are mostly offensive (in the River Plate: maricón, trolo, puto, etc.) a unhappy fact, which may or may not reflect something about our societies.
