I work for a psychologist and know that "homophobia" is VERY rare.

It isn't wrong to know that homosexuals are living a sinful life, because they are, but it's wrong to hate them.

God bless you!

You have the right to think what you will, of course. I happen to disagree with you, but I respect your right to think that way so long as you don't turn those thoughts into actions and begin to infringe on the rights and freedoms of others. But the problem with prejudice is that it very often leads to action, either by violence, or by politics and discriminatory policy (gay marriage bans, etc.) So, in my opinion, it is wrong to be homophobic -- but in my beliefs it is also wrong for me to tell you what to think. I can't change you. Just leave the rest of us alone, and don't try and force your ignorance on us.

I'm sure you are not that hot.
Just cause a guy is gay it doesn't mean he wants to get on you. Take for instance men, when they look at any woman they don't immediately think....well, maybe that's a bad example. Hmmm. Now that you mention it, if guys are always thinking about sex with everything that moves, gay guys must get a lot of action!! Mebbe I could get more action if I went gay!! Hmmm...I would still have to get over that whole "anal sex" thing, yuck. How gay guys handle poopy wiener syndrome is beyond me.

But seriously, why dislike a whole group of people before you even get to know them?

This just shows your fear and weakness. You are not a strong person if you find the want to be a homophobic. But it is your own opinion and you are entitled to it, just as I am entitled to say that you may need a therapist, because any phobia can be taken care of with the right help and meds.........;)

Homophobic is a nonsense word. I have never met anyone afraid of a gay person.

It isn't wrong to be homophobic, as i believe most people can't always help their own gut feelings on a situation, and much is dictated by religion and how you were raised. But sharing those opinions and belittling other people is most definitely wrong, regardless of the reason for doing so.

It's wrong to call someone or suggest that someone is homophobic when they aren't. Not everyone is supportive of, or believes in "the gay lifestyle". Doesn't necessarily mean they are "homophobic".

Yes of course it's wrong. Before I say anything else, homophobia is defined as prejudice against homosexuals, not just fear.

Basically, what do you have against gay people? What could they have possibly done to you to deserve it (apart from be singled out by your religion as "immoral")? Do you think that being racist is okay? Or mysogeny? It's the same thing - discrimination against someone based on a fundimental property that has zero effect on your life.

being homophobic is to fear the posabilty that you are gay. if you are secure in your own life there is no need to think about this

truthfully everybody is entitled to thier opinion. although, dislikng somebody consistent with thier mattress room interest is purely undemanding OLE IGNORANT!! I placed up unto you, people who concern something are people who're improperly knowledgeable on the undertaking count or on your case loss of understanding. My question to you, is why are you homophobic? Did you have a foul adventure with somebody who's/replaced into gay? Is it something that stems out of your early existence ie molestation by using somebody of an identical intercourse or much extra importantly is it given which you, your self, have some own demons of your man or woman that your are wrestling with. In my own own remark, i've got got here upon that people who're blatantly homophobic are the two themselves gay and interior the closet(and this is lots extra straightforward to divert the attention from your self and onto somebody who's brazenly gay) or purely undemanding ole ignorant. unhappy to assert that society's perception of what a gay individual is has exchange into thoroughly miscontrued and sensationalized by using the media. We(and that i say we through fact i'm an African American Male who's gay) have been projected as effeminate adult males, who over-articulate expressions by using dramatic hand gestures, hand on the hip, miss element this or that, while it quite is so a methods from the fact. additionally, we've been portrayed as drug clientele and to be very promiscuous. whilst that possibly actual for some, it does not carry actual for all. What i choose to advise to you, is which you spend some time volunteering with a company that deals solely with gay human beings(Like PFLAG- mothers and fathers and chum of Lesbian and Gays or at a gay hospital). That way each and all of the unfavorable stigmatism or reservations you have, correct to gay human beings would be placed to take a seat back. as quickly as you have had a favorable interplay with a gay individual, then possibly your perspectives correct to homosexuality, will exchange. by using no skill am I attempting to rigidity my existence form on absolutely everyone. human beings look to think of that we are by some skill "diverse". We bypass in the process an identical ups & down, highs and lows as our heterosexual opposite numbers. So why do you view us in any different case to the factor the place you're downright afraid? lower back I say, loss of practise, ends up in lack of expertise, which warrants concern. inspite of what the hundreds say, there is not any longer something joyful in being ignorant. while are you going to end it?

Homophobic is just a blanket term applied to anyone who does not approve of homosexual behavior. It's a knee-jerk defense of the lifestyle that implies bigotry where none is intended.
