So..let me get this straight...(rant)
If I don't like homosexuality, then I'm homophobic? But I thought that the basis of phobia, was fear? Someone called me a homophob last night, I shrugged it off, but then I asked her to explain. She told me that, perhaps I didn't like gays because I was afraid that I could be swayed into homosexuality. Then she laughed and said "maybe you're just afraid of the rise of a Gay nation?".
Mmmyeah, no.
First of all, the arguement for the legitimacy of homosexuality, is that it's not a choice. It's a way of life, but it's not a choice? It's a culture, but it's not a choice? But anyway, gay's argue that homosexuality is a trait, that you're born with. So I could'nt be afraid that, at some point I'd become gay. Not now, never have been, never will be.
Someone told me once, that we all "go through a phase", where we're exploring our sexuality. This is the time, in which to establish your sexual identity, the same guy asked me if I had gone through the phase. I'm like, what phase? For me, girls went from ugggh to....ooooooooh. I went from not really having any particular opinion about girls, to suddenly realizing that girls were the shit. Are the shit. Period.
I'm a little 'scared of heights, that makes me acrophobic. I have a thing about spiders, I'm not scared of them, but it's just...all those eyes looking at me at once...that bothers me. So I have a mild case of arachnophobia. Now, I hate okra...I dont care if it's fried or not I hate it. I don't care where it comes from, I dont need to know it's background. I don't care about okra seeds, or okra trees, I don't like'em. If I don't like okra, then I'm okraphobic?
That's my rant
