Why must one be a "phobe" to dislike or preach against something abhorrent?
I guess that, by your simple minded twisting of the english language that we all are:
Murderphobes
Rapephobes
Molestaphobes
Crawl back under your rock.
I agree. I posted something similar in another thread today. Why is disagreeing with or countering a particular idea automatically "fear" (the meaning of the suffix "-phobe")? Like you, I certainly don't fear homosexuals, but abhor homosexuality.
The whole word "homophobe" is quite a misnomer. "Homo-" means same; "-phobe" means fear. So, "homophobia" means fear of the same, not revulsion toward homosexuality. Its a liberal knee-jerk word disconnected from meaning.
