  Faggot (epithet) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Faggot or fag, in modern American English, Canadian English and Australian English usage, is a generally pejorative term for a gay or effeminate man. Its use has spread to varying extents elsewhere in the English-speaking world.
Originally confined to the United States, "fag" and "faggot" in their homosexual senses have been spread by American popular culture to other English-speaking countries, where it has partly displaced terms such as "queer" or the British "poof" as colloquial or abusive terms for gay men, particularly among heterosexual youth.
However, the continuing use of "fag" in British slang to mean cigarette and "faggot" to mean a bundle of sticks (or a fool) has severely limited adoption of the American use of the terms in the British Isles.

 Fag Hags- A Social Analysis
Yet it seems that most fag hags tend to associate with more sensitive men that are seen by society as "Sissies" becasue they have the traits discussed.
If a woman is trying to change someone to make their own lives better, it shows a problem with the ways in which that woman was taught to associate, and also demonstrates the problems that stem from a society riddled with phobias and stereotypes.
Though each of the characters can be critiqued for their simplistic characteristics and being representative of common stereotypes, it is also a gutsy show that brings to light the reality that often women feel a special connection with their gay, male friends.

 Fag - UK Slang - www.ezboard.com
The usual belief is that "fag" = "cigarette" is not from "faggot" but rather from "fag-end" = "cigarette butt" (note that "butt" also became used for "cigarette").
The reason I am quering you is that fags (cigarettes) have been so called for ages, years and years - long before they were disparaged to the extent they are today.
Giz a fag could be different things to different people - to wg it has sexual undertones (that surprised you all, didn't it?), to a working-class Brit it means a ciggie, and to a public schoolboy it means a skivvy (institutionalised slavery in public schools).

 Xiu Xiu: Fag Patrol: Pitchfork Record Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Fag Patrol is a nine-song mini-album featuring largely acoustic reworkings of six songs from Xiu Xiu's previous three releases, along with two new tracks and a cover.
Fag Patrol's other two unreleased tracks are standouts: "Nieces Pieces" sets Stewart's voice against a backdrop of decaying strings, as he sings of all the dark secrets his niece can look forward to discovering.
It may be mostly acoustic, but Fag Patrol is by no means an easy listen-- just as it begins to draw you in, it stands poised to rip you apart or, worse, taint the whole experience with a single, understated, disturbing utterance.
