Good, better late than never. Can you imagine the right royal sh*tstorm that would have kicked off if they’d banned homosexual, heterosexual or other terms?

I’ve put up some additional thoughts that touch upon some finer points here: http://www.thefayth.com/2012/09/winning-over-google.html

@Carl 1:

Carl, multiple search screens do ban the word homosexual or gay. We were trying to do charity outreach from a job and had many people wanted to direct their employee donations to a gay group and couldn’t pull any of them up to get them added to the listing because the standard filter provided by the outside vendor screened out homosexual and gay.

Took a bit of a shitstorm to get that removed.

Yes, but I’m guessing “Cynthia Nixon” is still a dirty word.
