It’s going to depend on use, like a lot of words obviously. I wouldn’t call someone “a queer” nor would I label someone as queer in place of asking how they identify (if for whatever reason that was something you needed to know or put a label on).
Either way, nice of you to ask about it.

What about the jersey though, can we still call this the Flaming C? Or just call the original the Flaming C?
