Usage notes
The word bög (in the meaning "male homosexual") has gradually since approximately the 1970s evolved from being a highly offensive and derogatory term to a word used by homosexual males to describe themselves in a conscious effort to rid the word and the concept it describes of their taboo status. It can nowadays be used in most mediums (including newspapers and national media broadcasts) as a fairly neutral and innocuous colloquial term, although context still dictates whether usage is considered derogatory or acceptable.
