Slang is ephemeral. Terms used in one generation may pass out of usage in another. For example, in the 1960s and 1970s, the terms „cottage“ (chiefly British) and „tearoom“ (chiefly American) were used to denote public toilets used for sex. By 1999, this terminology had fallen out of use to the point of being greatly unrecognizable by members of the LGBTQ+ community at large. On the other hand, the recognizable ones which are still in use today, have now largely stripped off of their political origin and became just a simple part of the entertainment culture.
„How to gay slang“ shows the linguistic narrative of queer culture or what becomes of it.
The focus of the performance is not the mocking of a slang we are used to.
It is a collection of phrases and words that we use today, even though we are not aware of their meaning or origin.
It is a superficial reproduction of a subcultural movement in a time when the only way to interact and communicate was through language, fashion and ballrooms.
