It’s in limbo.
Context matters, when used by a homophobe it can be an insult. I use the term, I don’t mind it, but I know some people might dislike it.
I try very hard to use vocabulary that is of most comfort for whoever is hearing it or being talked about. I think this is what is polite and courteous.
