gaymer
n.— «I’m a gay gamer. I hate the word gaymer, not because I find it offensive, but because it’s dumb. However, this guy (who, as has been stated, is a total asswipe) seems to think it was coined by gay gamers. I can say with almost 100% certainty that it was coined by a straight person. There’s no reason a gay person would start using this term, because a) they’re just asking for prejudice, and b) being gay isn’t a big deal to gay people.» —by olhado Joystiq Aug. 2, 2006.
