    Is that phrase still acceptable nowadays?

    Sounds a bit homophobic to me.

    I just assumed it meant mushing your words together as if it were mince.

    I never thought it was an anti gay slur.

    I'd always assumed it meant saying something without worrying about offending someone.

    I have never seen it said or suggested that this term is an anti-gay slur. I hope its not going to be retrofitted as such.

    Mincing around & Mincing your words have always had distinct meanings. The former referring to a dainty walk.

    Not mincing words = straight talking

    Not mincing = straight

    Clear homophobic slur, Hibrandenburg and Sturgeon should be cancelled.

    A whoosh moment for me!

    There are few if any regular posters on .net that I'd ever think were being intentionally homophobic, racist or any other 'ic's or 'ist's.
