No, I'm not homophobic, and sexual slurs really, really bother me. Anyone busting out words like 'homo' or 'fag' has earned themselves a swift punch in the jaw.
Besides, many of the coolest people I know aren't straight. Hell, my main confidante for when I just need to blow off steam is a lesbian from Kansas who is, to put it bluntly, awesome. Anyone who's going to judge these people for something as trivial as their sexual orientation (not to trivialize homosexuality, but come on--it really shouldn't matter as much as people make it matter) is a jerk.

Nope.
Couldn't care less who you have sex with.
But i do hate "flamboyancy". Anyone acting like that around me is going to get the cold shoulder. But because alot of gay guys I know are are like that, people tend to think I'm homophobic. But then, alot of straight guys I know are like that, and people don't seem to notice that I treat them the exact same.

That's kinda the thrust of the aforementioned topic, too.SimuLord said:
Anyway, bisexual. Or pansexual. Or whatever. Hard to be a homophobe, though I guess it's possible.
i have two friends who are gay and although im a little bit weirded out when they start making out (thought im a bit more used to it now that i have been around them a bit) me not knowing anyone who was gay until i came to this college because i used to live in a british army camp i dont mind considering about half of the anime club i go to is gay/bi/lesbian
Not homophobic at all. I used to be when I was like 14, but I have grown up since then. I have even done a few gay things before, though I remain solely attracted to women. Some people need to be more accepting, though I am glad the equal rights stuff is moving forward.
One thing. Overly flamboyant homosexuals I get annoyed by. It is just really unnecessary to be that over the top, and they need to yell to the world GAY PRIDE every few minutes. I have a couple of friends like this, and I dunno, just that level of exaggeration seems just as bad as people going around openly hating on the gay community. Obviously without the intention to offend. Does that make sense to anyone?

absolutely not, I have several friends who are gay both male and female who are lovely people, don't get me wrong when my best mate came out I was suprised but it didn't change the person he was, whom I'd been friends with for years. It annoys me when people make a narrow minded opinion of someone based on nothing but their sexuality, however that is just my view on the subject.
I'm not scared. It is just a little weird if you aren't expecting it. If they are obviously gay there is no problem. If it isn't so obvious and they start actively hiding it from you then it gets a little weird.
Not at all, although I don't approve of the people who have to announce it whenever they want attention. Mainly a couple of 'trendy bisexuals' I know.
A gay guy at my school used to come in wearing full make-up and whenever he passed me in the corridor I heard him saying things like, "I'm gay you know! I am gay! I have a boyfriend you know!" From what I heard, he also tried to get out of detention by accusing the teacher of being homophobic. I don't like his personality, whether he was straight or gay.
But yeah, I don't have a problem with any of it. I'm not too fond of the people who are like, "Gay guys/lesbian girls kissing are disgusting, but lesbian girls/gay guys making out are hawwwt!"

Nah, not homophobic. They gotta understand that I don't swing that way, though. It's perfectly fine for them to be that way, but I'm not, cool?
A little, It's not like I mind them or anything as long as they aren't advertising it to everyone, and as long as they don't go into detail about anything sexual. But then again, I don't like it when heterosexuals go into details about anything sexual either.
Maybe it's just me being wierd

*shrug* Maybe I'd be labelled a bit of a homophobe because two guys making out weirds me out a little. Not that I think it's wrong or that they shouldn't do it in public, since it's their right, but it makes me a little more uncomfortable than a hetero couple doing it.
I think it'd be silly to say "I'm not homophobic" as a heterosexual person. No matter what, you always will feel uncomfortable with the idea of you engaging in it. That is to say, maybe other people doing it doesn't matter, but when you get involved... it changes your perspective.
