JAV2. **Historical Meaning**: In the past, "gay" meant happy, lighthearted, or brilliantly colored. For example, classic works or songs might apply the term with this meaning, such as in "don we now our gay apparel" from the Christmas carol *Deck the Halls*.
3. **Colloquial Use**: In some everyday or negative contexts, "gay" is sometimes used as slang to mean an undesirable thing. This usage is widely frowned upon and perpetuates harmful stereotypes as it reinforces biases and stigmas.
