So I have this problem. I literally don't understand why people are homophobic. I was thinking about this because it occurred to me that we rarely have any posters here who post homophobic thoughts/opinion/etc. So then I thought maybe there are less homophobes. But then got to thinking about how if you were a homophobe it would be dumb to post here so you would likely keep it to yourself. Which makes me think there are still plenty of homophobes, people just hide it better because they realize that it isn't socially acceptable, just like racism.
But that almost makes me more angry. Its like you realize that it isn't socially acceptable so you hide it, which means you 'know' it is wrong but still have a problem with it.
But back to my original thought. I don't get why people have a problem with homosexuality. I am straight. Why does it affect me if someone else isn't (unless that someone else is my SO). It just drives me bonkers.
I think I only thought about all this because of AATBs post below...I supposed I could have just posted it there.
