I am a very “gay” person. I have been harrassed and even assaulted on occassion. And even though it gives no one the right to interfer in my life homosexuality is abnormal. “Abnormal” is not a dirty word nor should it be if it doesn’t affect your actual health. And again as a harrassed person even the people who don’t verbally or physically assault you if you are also “feminine” which most harrassed gays are you are chastised about every aspect of yourself. I’m 28, I’m not sure how old you are but I assure you every “gay” or “feminine” boy i know knows the way people treat them and knows the strange looks he gets when he plays with children at least in a “feminine” fashion. The facts of who pedophiles are is irrelavant to what people think. The majority of people do have a problem with homosexuals, if only when it comes to their own house. And let’s face it I live in a major city and even visit new york on occassion There are still huge swaths of despise and disdain that cause you to be cautious, I can hardly imagine how it would be elsewhere. As for the insecurities heterosexual men face please take a moment from your surity of which sentiment is in the majority and consider that homophobia doesn’t have to be raging hate to be in existence. The idea that homosexuals have no self control is rooted in the fact that most people DO have attraction to the same sex if to a minor degree, I for one have been attracted to a total of two girls both lesbians and both strippers and so very likely gave off manly pheromones. In any case in order to beleive you CAN overcome your urges they must have reason to believe it is possible. Sexuality in the end is grey. But because of our social struture people have to behave as if they are black or white and anyone who indulges in the grey or the black has no self control. I would love to say that homophobia barely existed but I assure you homophobia is alive and well just like it’s cousin racism
