Will Cain receives blessing from 'the gays

CNN's and TheBlaze's Will Cain is officially allowed to use the phrase "the gays" when talking about gay people.

In an email exchange (published as a CNN.com column) between Cain and CNN analyst John Stutter, they debate whether 2013 is "year of the gay"...

Will Cain: "Year of the Gay"? Can you say that? Can I say that? What are the parameters here? I'm genuinely curious ... is "gay" as a noun offensive? For example: "The gays are interested in today's Supreme Court case." Or is it the "the" that makes it feel like a sword of political incorrectness cutting through the conversation? I need help here John. ...

Sutter: On the "the gays" thing: You can use it anytime. You have the blessing of the gays. (At least one...)
