Did you know?
The acronymn "swag" originates in the 1960's when being gay was looked down upon as unlawful to even be together. The acronymn itself stands for "Secretly We Are Gay."

This is very funny. Please, everybody, take a joke. There is no, "Argument" as you call it, here. Don't turn everything into a debate. ^_^

Wrong. Shakespeare invented the word. It may have been used as an acronym but it did not originate for such a purpose, and there is no reliable website stating that it has even been used as such an acronym.

There is no reliable website that confirms that S.W.A.G (Secretly We Are Gay) did, indeed, exist. On a daily basis, the acronym is used in the US Air Force, standing for "Scientific, Wild- Guess" and most commonly by teenagers as a word to describe the way they carry themselves (e.g. the way they talk, the way they dress, etc). It originated from the word "swagger", invented by William Shakespeare, English poet and playwright from the 16th/17th century.

Your argument is invalid.

Actually the word swag originated as stolen goods or loot and was carried by a swagman. The acronym S.W.A.G happens to stand for secretly we are gay, and is probably something you found on Urban Dictionary.
