Azealia Banks continues to draw a discussion (and more attention) to the fallout over her decision to call Perez Hilton a "faggot" on Twitter. In an interview with The Music, Azealia continues to angrily defend her use of the word and goes on to blame GLAAD for much of the problem.

Azealia Banks might not have earned all of her LGBT cred back from her f-bomb Twitter fight with Perez Hilton, but her crowd-sourcing to redefine "faggot" is somewhat of an olive branch.

At GitHub, a community devoted to the altruism of sharing code with fellow developers, a severe lack of diversity is shining through in many lines of open-source code. Is it time for the development community to take stock and have a conversation about offensive language perpetuated behind the scenes of the Internet?

Another day, another homophobic athlete. Cleveland Browns linebacker Tank Carder (we wonder if that's his given name) went straight for the faggot bomb when some fan/heckler said something he didn't like on Twitter.
 
He goes on to claim that while he's anti-gay, that doesn't make him homophobic, nor does the use of the word "faggot." 
 
Clearly his name isn't inspired by a think tank.
 
Check out the Twitter interaction after the jump.

So, how many tweets in a month contain a homophobic message?
