Homo
Homosexual
Homosexuality
Gay
And every other variation of gay depending on the exact same-sex sexual identity
Homosexual = Science
Gay = Culture
Homosexual is a word used as a diagnosis - predominantly by psychiatrists as it was a psychiatric disorder in the DSM until 1973 - that identifies a particular person as not only having genetic same-sex attraction, but as having a defect or disorder because of it.
EXAMPLE: An ex-gay - also known as someone who went through unorthodox religious treatment in order to be heterosexual - was a homosexual (and arguably still is a homosexual) because they reject their attractions and therefore, the culture all together.
Gay is a word used as an identity that a person with same-sex attraction may adopt, thereby indoctrinating them as part of the community and culture rather than simply having sex with people of the same sex.
EXAMPLE: Most people with same-sex attraction! (again citing variations such as lesbian according to the nature of the same-sex attraction)
Moral of the story = HOMOSEXUAL IS A DIRTY WORD! No matter what your ignorant, uneducated high school teacher told you: Homosexual is NOT politically correct. Have a nice day! :)
