The word “gay” have its origins around the 12th century in England, derived from the Old French word ‘gai’, which was probably derived from a Germanic word, though that isn’t completely known yet. The main point, is that the word’s original meaning meant something to the effect of “joyful”, “carefree”, “full of mirth”, or “bright and showy”. However, in the early parts of the 17th century, the word began to be associated with immorality or bad. By the mid 17th century, according to an Oxford dictionary definition at the time, the meaning of the word had changed to mean *“addicted to pleasures and dissipations. Often euphemistically: Of loose and immoral life”.* This is an extension of one of the original meanings of “carefree”, meaning more or less uninhibited. Let's make a quick jump to the 19th century and the word gay is use to referred to a woman who was a prostitute and a gay man was someone who slept with a lot of women (ironic, ain't it?), often prostitutes. Also at this time, the phrase “gay it” meant to have sex. With these new definitions, the original meanings of “carefree”, “joyful”, and “bright and showy” were still around; so the word was not exclusively used to refer to prostitutes or a promiscuous man. Those were just accepted definitions, along with the other meanings of the word. However, around the 1920s and 1930s, the word started to have a new meaning. In terms of the sexual meaning of the word, a “gay man” no longer just meant a man who had sex with a lot of women, but now started to refer to men who had sex with other men. There was also another word “gey cat” at this time which meant a homosexual boy. By 1955, the word gay was officially acquired the new definition of meaning homosexual males. Gay men themselves seem to have been behind the driving thrust for this new definition as they felt (and many still do), that “homosexual” is much too clinical, sounding like a disorder (which it doesn't, but they havd the beliefs, i guess). As such, it was common amongst the gay community to refer to one another as “gay” decades before this was a commonly known definition. At this time, homosexual women were referred to as lesbians, not gay (even if it's still correct to use the word gay to reffered to a homosexual male or female). Although women could still be called gay if they were prostitutes as that meaning had not yet 100% disappeared. And that's how the word gay changed it's meaning so much in the history...hope it help to clarify the topic a bit to anyone who seem confused by little Pearly's thougths *(wow, this most be the longest comment that i have ever written)*

I would say Copy and Pasted but Here's one I just made (copy and pasted here but typed somewhere else) At the battle of Adwa anywhere from 75,000 to 100,000 Ethiopian Troops, fought against anywhere from 15,000 to 20,000 Italian Troops. The battle began, and after a short bit, one Italiab leader realised it was a loss and ordered a retreat. The Retreat wasn't hear by everyone, so some people were covering the retreat, others were fighting, and some were retreating. Unfortunately the Retreat meant everyone was running into their own lines. The battle was a disaster for Italy, and it shocked most of Europe which changed their cooperation with Ethiopia. This battle would lead to Italy surrendering and giving up their claim to a protectorate over Ethiopia.

Objection: Wright has probably just been too gay for Edgeworth for too long, especially with their close proximity now. Therefore, while he may still be considered bi, one could infer he's most likely forgotten his sexuality had anything to do with women. (sorry if this is annoying, i wanted to try and do this for the first tine in a long while. So fun! 😂)

While I agree that she would not be a teen in our world, we have to consider that the Laws of Japanifornia are way different. I rest my case.
