If someone calls me homophobic I say, "I am not afraid of them, I just don't like them". That usually gets me dirty looks. But it's okay, I don't really care what "they" think.
Yes. And its most frequent practitioners are homosexuals.
Very well put and courageous
How about that guy who goes around with signs that say "God hates fags"?
This writer crystallizes the ideas and points that have been floating around in my head for some time on this subject. I take issue with really only one point and that is the same sex unions are OK concept. The homosexual is not the problem, the homosexual behavior is the problem. Legitimate, government recognized same sex unions legitimize and condone homosexual behavior. Therein lies the problem. Everything else in this piece is spot on.
Thanks...
saw a bumper sticker while passing by an "event" that said, "i am so homophobic i cant touch myself."
Bombarded with pro-gay media messages I was thinking the other day that as a straight male, I've already experienced most "gay orgasm" activities -- with women. We've done it this way and that way and the yippy yi yo ki yay way! So what? Most of it is a lot of work and really messy and completely unnatural. And (so I've been told) pretty painful. And apparently very conducive to hepatitis (and hemorroids). Some of it really leaves a bad taste in her mouth. But once in a while, when drunk, we'll get wild. So what? Should we get a prize? Should we have a parade? Special treatment? Do my neighbors really need to know? Does it matter if my neighbors nod in approval? Should I put a flag outside my house the morning after? What. What should I do to make sure the whole world knows that my wife and I have experienced wild sex?
While going through the security at the local airport recently on a real hot day I naturally beeped. So two TSA ladies took me to a room to check me out. I informed them that not only was I wearing the jewelry that was visible but I was also wearing an anklet and a girdle with metal links as well as an underwire and my tennis shoes had metal eyelets. I was then asked to raise my blouse. While I was raising my blouse, I rather loudly proclaimed "I'm heterosexual" which one TSA lady who was checking out my shoes starting cracking up in laughter, but the other had such a frown on her face that I thought she might be a lesbian. While the shoe lady stepped out of the room after wiping my stays with some type of cloth to check it out, the frowning lady said I could put my blouse down. However, by that time, I was using the end of the blouse as a fan and informed her that it was much cooler with my blouse being up. I was sent on my way rather quickly.
BUMP!
Is there such a thing as homophobia?
"How about that guy who goes around with signs that say "God hates fags"?
IMHO - Such a sign might represent a hatred or judgement, and not necessarily a "phobia". I do know that homosexual acts are sin, in a long list of sins. My approach is hate the sin, not the sinner. I'll guess most opponents of the homosexual agenda want to constructively confront them for pushing same-sex marriage and to challenge them for attacking a timeless institution dedicated ONLY for a man and his wife (woman). When homosexuals object to traditional culture and protest those who want to preserve traditional marriage then they end up looking "heteralphobic".
Now, how about this sign? I have a picture of a (traditional marriage) protester holding a sign outside a Mayday for Marriage rally in Seattle. The sign read:
"Baby Jesus was GAY!"
Not only that, many of these (hundreds of) protesters were hired...AKA "rent-a-mob". It is literally their job as activists to advance liberal ideals, and the homosexual agenda is just one aspect.
BTW - the Tides Foundation funds many such protests. Tides is the same "charity" funded by Teresa Heinz-Kerry. (side note: I always question the reason behind a hyphenated name). All the combined millions of dollars contributed are channeled without being traced to a donor. I suspect Tereza advocates gay marriage and feels her money is well spent. Hint: SENATOR JFKerry voted for gay marriage...and he is also well spent.
Great article all around.
is there really a shirt that says that?
And pretty much regarding claims about just about everything else, mundane things to more important things like relationships and school curriculum.
But the humor part seems like the last straw. Laughter as hatred is ridiculous. However gays laughing at Catholics or 'breeders' or such, perfectly acceptable - to them. This seems to say that laughter at their expense is not funny and not appropriate, but laughter at those who disagree - yes, those who dare disagree! - with them is acceptable and necessary. The PC crowd has hijacked humor and declared up is down and down is up and we must agree or we are 'hateful'. (Hello, Thought Police?...)
