Do you think homophobia will virtually disappear within a couple generations?

These days it's only the ignorant, the closeted and the religious fundamentalists who seem to have a problem with gay people.

Having a problem with someone can be acted on love or hate. Just because someone does not agree with another does not give them the right to persecute them. Hating on them creates persecution. Loving them allows those that disagree to accept and respect the thoughts and actions of those they do not agree with.

Our lives should respect all people whether we agree with them or not. Our lives should also be a teacher to those around us. Our lives teach love or hate.

I wish all of our lives taught love.

You assume the world will become a better place. It won't. It gets worse and worse. A hateful insane psychopath lives in the White House and millions of Americans love him.
@Pikachu Shush shush Pikachu, you can't win this with logic....

@LvChris I like you, and thus I concede. Shit's easy
most people don't give a shit, hell most religious fundamentalists I know only begin caring gay people interrupt their day to day living.

Humans will all always seek to divide among us vs. them.

@Bootsiebaby and that is why this country is in the mess it is in. You and other like you chose a side and ignore morality, policy, or justice in favor of cheer leading.

@Bootsiebaby So when the Obama Administration funded Sunni Rebels in Syria that targeted Christian and Alewite villages, killing civilians, that was moral? So when Eric holder funneled weapons illegally into Mexico, arming Cartels and human traffickers, that was justice? So when The ACA was enacted, that was sound policy? What about the democrats who voted for the Patriot Act and the war in Iraq?

Right now, I'd settle for just having no executions or floggings of gay people in the middle east.
@greenmountaingal

Yeah...over here in the west we forget how bad things are for some minorities elsewhere

No. The ultra religious will always mind

@Pikachu it is until it will go up again
@revenant

What makes you think it will go up again? The better educated a population, the less religious it is

There is no homophobia now. There never was.
@SteelHands

But there definitely is....unless you're about to pretend homophobia means fear of gays...
In which case i don't know lol

@Pikachu
I don't know what you mean. I also don't care what you call me. Where I stand from your point of view isn't important to me.

It's plainly obvious that where you stand from my point of view doesn't really matter to you.

There must be someone better informed than me then. Maybe you should ask them.
@SteelHands

Um...what? I didn't call you anything.
I was challenging your assertion that there is not now, nor was there ever homophobia.
I attempted to identify a possible reason why you would make this claim.
Since this was apparently in error the appropriate response is to clarify your position so the conversation can move forward.

So let's try this again. On what grounds do you claim that there is no homophobia? What does homophobia mean to you?

It’s ok to not agree with a lifestyle.
@MrBrownstone

It's not a lifestyle. It's a sexual identity. And intolerance of another person for being who they are is not ok.
lorne13 · 61-69, M
@MrBrownstone yes but to develop a phobia about it only hurts yourself
caccoon · 36-40
Hopefully it will. Along with racism, and sexism.

...in other words, I don't think it's going anywhere, anytime soon.

It will always be unnatural and repulsive to me. Has not one damn thing to do with fear. It's repulsive
@SW-User

Well it's undeniably natural. It being repulsive is your hangup. Just the same way it used to be horrifying for a black man to be with a white woman.
