Etymology

Faggotness comes from the old word faggot, which once meant a 'bundle of sticks'. Over time faggot was used as an insult for someone thought to be a burden or strange, and later became a very offensive word used against gay people to mean 'showy' or 'not serious', so faggotness is a hurtful term and should be avoided.
