ll-Mystic Rhythms-ll Is there really such thing as a homophobe that ISN'T ignorant or rude towards LGBT people? I find the rude ones to be quite idiotic and rude, very rude. I saw someone reply to a topic on this subject somewhere saying: "I hate them, they need to go back in the closet and stay" and I felt pretty insulted, I even replied saying that was insulting and they said: "I don't really care" and I just feel sorry for that person, I mean every person has their own opinion and being homophobic is ok as long as you are not harassing a person or people just because they are gay, lesbian, bi, or transgendered. Or is there really such thing as a nice homophobe? What are your opinions and thoughts about homophobic people?
When you say "nice" homophobe, I guess considering the homophobe's personality can be overall nice and friendly, but probably still be very against homosexuality or be disgusted by it. Otherwise, they wouldn't have a big fear of it or be called a homophobe.
My thoughts are them vary, depending on the person. Sometimes I feel bad for them, knowing they are really on the bottom of the evolutional chain (is that even a word? lol) are eventually their stupidity will catch up to them and they won't be a problem anymore. Sometimes they get on my nerves and I find them pathetic; thinking that calling me a 'gay' is a bad thing (even though I'm bi). Most of the times, I really don't give a sh** what they think or say. As long as they leave me alone, I will leave them alone.

TylerAnnihilate Something I don't understand is how ANYONE in the gay community can put up with homophobia. Homophobia, no matter the source, is UNACCEPTABLE. And @Shanna66, saying that you can ignore their homophobia is tacitly endorsing homophobia. I've consistantly seen throughout this guild you saying that your LGBT status doesn't have anything to do with you as a person, but it does. You say it has as much to do with you as a person as the color of their hair, or their eye color. You can dye your hair blonde, but your hair will always be brown. You can wear blue contacts, but your eyes will always be brown. And I also think it's annoying when someone says stuff like that, ESPECIALLY when they're biseuxal because they could so easily go marry someone of the opposite gender. I think it's a cop-out. Pretending that someone doesn't hate you and hoping that it goes away is doing the same thing as some homophobes pretend that you aren't gay, hoping that it will go away. Quoted for truth, and this goes for straight people too. If you allow homophobia in any form to go unchallenged then you are not a reliable ally. LGBT voices are already marginalized, and when they're the only ones speaking up it's easy for homophobes to spin it as "a vocal minority looking for special privileges."
