Homophobia is one of the most retarded logics in existence; intolerance for something that does not even affect you. The (illogical) taboo that surrounded this issue in the past has diminished into nothingness in recent years - it is widely accepted and acknowledged now that there exists a strong diversity in sexual preference and orientation, and there is no "right" and "wrong" and nor should there have ever been in the first place.
It genuinely sickens me how people can so readily judge, harass and ostracise people for simply being themselves. If you have a legitimate problem with homosexuals, or bisexuals, or any of the LGBT community whatsoever for that matter, do the world a solid, and erase yourself. Seriously.
I'm not trying to be some white knight activist for gay rights, and I appreciate that I myself have been known to use certain terminology as an insult in the past; but I accept that this was just remnants of past social conditioning, and I consciously try to remain aware at all times of my choice of vocabulary these days.
It disgusts me that we've become so ignorant to what we're saying and the implication of the negativity attached to it; even when people aren't homophobic they use "gay", "faggot" and the like as a choice insult. It disgusts me even more that people in this day and age still try to suppress other peoples rights; live and let live, love and let love.
As Macklemore says: "I might not be the same, but that's not important; No freedom till we're equal, damn right I support it."
