Always hated the word breast myself.Just sounds too graphic, so I can understand where the op is coming from.
Other words for breast don't bother me at all.
Also find fiancé to be a creepy word. No idea why tho.
I'm always a little suspicious of a brand new person here who has something so odd as their first post. But, in the event that this is a real issue I would agree with practicing saying the word you find uncomfortable.
I hate the word "panties". I always refer to them as underwear because panties just sounds so weird.
I don't like the word panties either. It sounds extremely weird.

Me too. I like all the other terms for it just fine: boobs, toys, bazooms knockers..even ta tas is okay but breasts *shudders*
Same thing with a guy's junk. Penis *shudders again* it just sounds so weird. I'll even use the offensive slang that starts with a d. On the other hand I hate the slang word d bag.
Maybe it's a medical thing? But then again why does vagina not really bother me?
I also don't like the word poo/poop. I'd rather say the curse word for it. Maybe part of it is I don't like p words for some reason because I don't like the p word for vagina either. However I like the word purple and pretentious so it really doesn't make sense.
I don't seem to like words that end in ag either but that one seems clear. Unlike the letter p I can't think of any that end with that that I like.
I for the life of me can't understand why it is being said.
How often to you hear someone say heterosexual? Never!

You're right, you don't hear people who are straight announcing that choice. For some reason the trend now is to reveal if you're part of the LGBT community; maybe they're hoping to find comrades and bond with someone?
"Lesbian" hasn't had the exposure that "gay" has had, so that could be why you're uncomfortable using it. "Lesbian" used to be tossed around as an insult (if anyone is old enough to remember that). Back in the day, gay simply meant bright and happy,,, as in "don we now our gay apparel". The word was never used to shame people, so it's easier to say.
I hate the word "partner" when used in a relationship sense. Doesn't make me squeamish, but I am biased to think that people using it to refer to their SO are not really serious or are cold-blooded. A relationship is not a business contract FFS.
I don' what to tell you. Gay people exist, we have to have words to describe everything we talk about otherwise it become that "thingamajobber" so... labels exist.
If gay/lesbian people make you uncomfortable I don't know what to tell you. I can sit here and lecture about accepting it, but that is something you need to figure out, no one can make you accept anything. The world is full of things that I prefer didn't exist, I personally don't have any issues with the LGBT community, they do their thing and I do mine.
I don't know what more I can say here.
