Inspired by the "Are you racist" thread. You might be homophobic if...

...you like Hilary Duff but found yourself wondering about the nature of her relationship with her sister in one or more of their "music" videos.
...you have a Gaydar and use it often.
...you didn't watch Mr. Romance because it was too "gay".
...you don't watch any TV show with any actors/actresses/characters that are rumored to be gay.
...you feel uncomfortable when another guy/girl hugs you.

No.

I love women too much, and I can't hate a guy that isn't attracted to women. He's doing me a favor.

More women for me to seduce :)

This doesn't necessarily mean your homophobic. It could just mean your horny and perverted.

You feel funny about eating hot dogs or sausages in public.

You think that what the Bible says is relevant to other people.

...you avoid eating Skittles in public because you don't want people to think you like to "Taste the rainbow". :p

do I dissaprove of homosexual "unions" and homosexual "marriage"? yes

does this mean I have an illogical fear of homosexuals that will drive me to bigotry and/or violence? not by any means

Actually, it wouldn't be weird. Many gays/bisexuals are self-hating, due to their society/religion.

Here I am breaking some stereotypes:
First of all is Duff that red head girl or not?
I don't like reality television, its shitty and boring.
I don't like shopping, its a waist of time and I'm cheap.
I don't have a lisp.

No, she's a blonde bubblegum pop diva. Lindsay Lohan is the redhead... at least she used to be. (I think she went blonde recently.)

You don't wear remotely bright colours because they're "just a little fruity."

You make gay jokes. :rolleyes:

From what I have seen pop culture is crap.

You use this to make up "I'm not homophobic, but..." statements.

Bah. I know it isn't PC to use 'gay' in that manner but c'mon. When I say something is 'cool', I don't actually think it's cold. I don't even like the cold.

You make gay jokes.
Same goes for this. If I make an Irish joke or a Kiwi joke, I'm not actually trying to undermine people from Ireland or New Zealand, I am a quarter and half of these nationalities respectivly.

I might be straight but you won't find a guy more in support for things like gay marriage and equal adoption rights than I am. Am I just insensitive or are others overly sensitive and too eager to be PC?

Why are you homophobic, do you believe you issue with homosexuality is rational and justified?

unreasoning fear of or antipathy toward homosexuals and homosexuality.

Emphasis mine.

And before you ask how I gleaned your antipathy towards homosexuality from a single post which doesn't show much more than the average level of disapproval... You've been here almost two years. It's hard not to notice someone at least a few times in two years, and my long-term memory for worthless things kicks ass.

Surely that would only be homophobic if you were also making fun of people. What's wrong with trying to work out if someone's gay if, say, you're interested.



...you feel uncomfortable when another guy/girl hugs you.

That doesn't make you homophobic. You could just come from a family that doesn't hug much and be uncomfortable with hugging in general. Or you could be uncomfortable with your own sexuality, which doesn't necessarily make you homophobic. I'm sure some homophobes are homophobes because they're gay themselves and not comfortable with it, but there are also people who are gay, uncomfortable about it and not homophobic.

You might be homophobic if...

... you think AIDS is a good thing because 'it only kills poofs'
... a friend tells you they have had a homosexual fantasy and you beat them to death before going on to chop up their body, putting the bits in binliners and chucking them into a canal.
... you stab yourself in the eye with a fork as a 'punishment' for considering longingly the buttocks of a person in the street who turned out to be the same gender as you.
... you have a concentration camp in your back garden in which you imprison and gas anybody who 'looks a bit queer'.
