“Homophobia” is a half-slang Frankenword. If its Greek cognates (homos & phobos) were used accurately, it would mean “irrational fear of those who exactly resemble oneself”.

Me, I’m not afraid of other hetero conservative gun owners. Guess I’m not a “homophobe”.

Indisputable logic; good post!

Frankenword (autocorrect doesn’t like it)? I’m assuming that’s going to be the next word of the year. Needs to be correlated with 1984.
