Actually, faggot has had negative connotations since the word came about. At first it referred to poor elderly people who were to infirm to do anything. Then it was used to refer to poor unwed mothers.
Then somehow it was used to refer to a bundle of sticks. The poor often hauled firewood around the city so I guess that could be the source. And because cigarettes are kinda like a bundle of sticks (not really) they used faggot.
I'm not sure how it came to be used for homosexuals.
He punched her in the mouth, is this justifiable?

Fag goes both ways. Actually I hate that word because I'm pretty sure you're not a cigarette.

Most fairies are gay.
As in, most small supernatural creatures are happy.
