"'In the English language, 'gay' is an adjective that in modern usage refers to homosexuality. In earlier and in literary usage, the word means 'carefree,' 'happy,' or 'bright and showy.' From the 1890s, it had begun to carry a connotation of promiscuity, as in a 'gay house' referring to a brothel. It began to be used in reference to homosexuality in particular from the early 20th century, from the 1920s at the latest.' Wikipedia, 2008."
