Homophobe (n) - a perjorative term invented by homosexual advocates in an attempt to pretend that people with a natural dislike of homosexual relations, are somehow "afraid" of something.
Had you not quoted him. I would not have followed up on your reply to his quote.Originally Posted by Marcus Aurelius
I call everyone dumb ass, you know that. You also know this thread is a troll thread, created specifically because I called him a homophobe in the other thread. He created this thread to get into it with me, hoping I'd post and he could start something, so what kind of person would I be if I did not oblige him just a bit? I can't help it if he thinks he's right and every dictionary in the world is wrong.
But if you'd like me to stop smacking the poor little guy around for a while, so be it.
I agree that Billybob has a point and rather than attack a particular poster, merely offered proof to back up his comments.
How does one fear homosexuals? Are they supposed to hop out of dark shadows and attack somebody? It means nothing. It means a fear of men. But men does not mean homosexuals. Women are also homosexuals.

"The social contract exists so that everyone doesn’t have to squat in the dust holding a spear to protect his woman and his meat all day every day. It does not exist so that the government can take your spear, your meat, and your woman because it knows better what to do with them." - Instapundit.com

ho·mo·pho·bi·a
[hoh-muh-foh-bee-uh]
noun unreasoning fear of or antipathy toward homosexuals and homosexuality.
intense hatred of homosexuals or homosexuality
Your mind runs not in streams of thought but in the mud puddles of life.
I do not expect that to be understood, at least not by you. If you read much, and understand much, there may still be hope for you yet.
First, Democrats like that term. Yet since their thoughts are almost entirely always wrong, I am not shocked they believe in such a definition. Second, I have not met any non democrat that hates homosexuals nor has fear of them.
Perhaps you speak of Muslims who simply would kill one if found.
Every word is an invented word, it convays an idea not bound by symbols alone.
If it helps you to read it as 'homoism' or some other word then fine, but to pretend that the letters used change the meaning conveyed is a red herring.
If you also agree that an animals suffering should be avoided rather than encouraged, consider what steps you can take.
Well that was ironic xD
When you are told someone is homophobic do you think
A) They have a fear of gays
Or
B) They hate gays
If you think 'A' then as far as you're concerned the word would be 'right' if you think 'B' then that proves the word itself doesn't matter, because the meaning carries through nonetheless.
The word is, when broken down, wrong. In the same way the phase 'I could care less' is wrong when it is used to mean 'i could not care less'. Their are countless other examples of this, but what is important is what is understood, not what letters/words are used.

If you're using the term "homophobia", you're adopting the left's vocabulary. If you want to use fixation, obsession, preoccupation, shock, etc., that another conversation. What if someone were to call you "Islamophobic" ? When some uses the whatever-phobic in a political or sociological discussion, it's a manipulative tactic and generally not going to be an intelligent discussion.
