So are you saying that anyone who uses the term 'gay' is now correctly only referring to sodomites and catamites?

I wonder if a woman who's into anal counts as a "sodomite".

No, a catamite possibly but we should ask one of our experts.

Well I do not. I prefer to call a spade 'a spade', if not 'a bloody shovel' so to speak :-)
