Etymology
Gay-ass comes from gay, which first meant 'happy' and later came to mean 'homosexual' and also 'showy', and ass, a rude word for 'donkey' that people use like 'very' to make the first word stronger. So gay-ass means 'very showy' or extremely bold in style, and it is slang that can be offensive.
