how are people still homophobic? dont gibe me your stupid religious beliefs?

They are taught to be so by other people. Religion plays a big part in it.

It is important to not tolerate hate speach and to be out when it is safe for you - at least when you are on your own and paying your own bills. Write your legislators. Treat everyone how you want to be treated.

I'm not afraid of homosexuals, but they are active unrepentant sinners. It is disgusting.

It takes quite a few generations for such prejudices to die out. Really, it hasn't been that long since it was more or less standard.

Nothing wrong with being homophobic just as there is nothing wrong with hating racists and fascists.

Your sexual preference is not something you need annoy other people about.

I have never met anyone who was afraid of homosexuals.... just because I do not like them and do not like their practices does not mean I am afraid of them.....

I feel like it's the older generation that still think that way since it's how they were raised. I don't know a single person in my high school or anyone my age who's homophobic.

Just plain ignorance, and a lesser intellect.

I am not against homosexuality but it seems most homosexuals are infected with gay syndrome. Being gay is about as annoying as those mascots in roller coaster parks, I would rather walk the other way, most homosexuals make me feel that way and I would rather avoid their stupid behaviour which has nothing to do with homosexuality in and of itself.

People aren't homophobic, they have a difference of opinion and are intelligent enough to read the science for themselves and find sufficient countering evidence such that the claims being made can be said, with 100% certainty, to be unprovable.

In other words, no evidence exists that fully supports or denies that homosexuality is a choice.


If being intelligent enough to read and interpret these studies makes one homophobic then it becomes quite obvious why there aren't many studies against LGBT; that being that one cannot use a pseudonym in academic journals and since colleges depend on donators as much as tuition it makes a professor who submits something that is branded "homophobic" a liability to the college which is enough to revoke tenure and fire the professor.
