    If you think gays using this takes something away, that something was in your head. It is still the same song, you changed.

    I don't think it's a case of any 'original meaning' having been hijacked - it was always intended to have that gay anthem/personal affirmation double meaning. That's a very Chic thing. Just listen to Nile Rodgers' many interviews on the subject.

    Haven't heard this for ages. It is a pity that it has become a gay anthem. As Ihero55 said its use by the gay community has destroyed the original meaning of the song.
