Bigoted? maybe. Homophobic? Nope, homophobe is one who fears homosexuals, not one who simply doesn't like them. I tend to doubt that Hardaway fears many men.

Le Batard took Hardaway to task, pointing out that his comments were “flatly homophobic” and bigoted, but that only seemed to stir up the former point guard.

The above supports Rush Limbaugh's thesis that the sports media is as leftist as the news media.

I say that all the time too. I am tired of being labeled "homophobic" when I express disgust at homosexuals. A phobia is an irrational fear of something. I don't fear the queers! It's more like "homo-disgusted"!

Homophobe isn't a real word. It's one of those cultural Marxist clubs invented by the likes of Howard Zinn.

After writing the above, I discovered that homophobe isn't even in the spell checker. Try it.
