In order not to be homophobic one needs to realise it would be absolutely fine if one was gay - otherwise one is always afraid deep down that one is merely in denial and secretly harbours homosexual desires, although one is not consciously aware of them at the time.
I don't buy this "everyone who's homophobic is secretly gay" nonsense. Some folks, sure. But I've no doubt there are plenty of homophobic people out there for whom their heterosexuality isn't in question. They just find gay sex repulsive, which isn't surprising because they're heterosexual. The problem is they think anyone should give a shit that they're repulsed by it. It is demonstrably absolutely fine to be gay, and no meaningful or relevant reason has been presented as to why it's not.
