From personal experience - when I use something like "f*ggot" with my gay friends we all know we're obviously being tongue-in-cheek. If a straight person comes to me and calls me a f*ggot, even if it's not in an offensive manner, I'll find it at least strange.
Because there's a history, a
context of straight people using this word to diminish gay people. I think with blacks and whites it's similar.
