Considering the definition of the word homophobia, I have no fear (irrational or otherwise) of homosexuals.
I do have a biological aversion, but only to the extent that the word homosexual IS an ANTONYM of heterosexual and there's nothing wrong with heterosexuals claiming that their aversion to homosexuality is because they were "born that way."
And as a word, "homophobia" sounds about as stupid and misplaced as the word 'heterophobia'.
In terms of Darwinian sexual selection, it's heterosexual mate competitors I ought to "fear" the most if anyone.
The word "homophobic" is pretty much now just an amphibology used by people who want nothing more than to incite hatred against heterosexual people they mistakenly think have a "fear" of a homosexual minority. Why would the heterosexual majority "fear" that?
Taking the "anti-homophobia", agenda-mongering into schools and targeting it at heterosexual children is a wasted effort.
You were "born that way"? Fair enough. I was born THIS way.
