when British people say "faggot" as a derogatory remark, does that relate etymologically to the red, burning ember also named "faggot" or to a cigarette which is named "faggot" after the ember?
when Americans say it it usually means they wish that whoever they are calling "faggot" would fuck them, but they are afraid to actually say so.
Like when guys call women bitches because they won;t have sex with the guy.
