No, no tim, I did not represent that it was colloquial, I was just saying that if it is used in France now (as opposed to 10 years ago when I had never heard it used there yet), it is not the formal term, the formal phrase (lets call it "official" term) is homosexuel, thats all ! I recognize it is not colloquial in English but it is not the "official" term either, thats what I meant, sorry if I was not distinct !

Ahh, ok. Yes "official" word is better, I ponder, in this context because we are talking about language and "formal" is the normal term used to mean "high" register (eg the opposite of colloquial).
I suppose, though, that what I am suggesting is that "gay" is slowly becoming the "official" term. Its not there yet, but it really is quite unusual to hear "homosexual". In evidence the only time you do really hear it is either in medical terms or, I assume , when vicars and the like discuss it in terms of religion.
