Not agreed, you have got lost in your pointless definitions and are now branching to general assumptions. How did you deduce that I have contempt for those who have no problem with gays ?
Id love to know how you came to that conclusion..

I have yet to claim that I even dislike gay people, I work with them and am related to them. ..I dislike the concept of being gay.
I think there is something wrong with it.

I dont expect you to understand but this is why I do not like to be told Im homophobic. It implies that I am afraid of gay people.

If it makes you feel better go ahead and call me homophobic, by your thought process I probably am. But not by mine..

All I know is that a phobia implies fear. If I am arachnaphobic..(sp) I fear spiders, my first thought about them is not that I hold them in contempt. Who thinks like this apart from you ?
You dont think that a phobia implies fear and this makes you a fool..

Do a test ask anyone you can find to define homophobia and see if they use the word 'fear'. Then you can report back with an apology.
Ok I have no idea if you are homophobic, and I WILL apologise for that, it is too easy to make a rash accusation to make a point. Will you apologise for calling me Gay as an insult. And apologise to your gay rellies that you use Gay as an insult. - but that does not change the fact that homophobia has a MUCH broader definition than "fear".
It is in black and white in the dictionary.
