I get where you are coming from Rowan and Hilaire. As a Native American in a very backwards/conservative town, I've dealt with racism and backhanded ideology for the better part of my life. But I simply don't agree with the idea that if you don't particularly want to see two guys making out, that this alone makes you homophobic. I don't want to see hetero's making out either. Holding hands, hugging, and kisses on the cheek, these are all acceptable displays of affection in public. But making out, in most people's mind, is an egregious precursor to sex. And whether it is a straight, or gay couple, no one wants to see you out in public getting all 'private time' on eachother. For most people, it is less about the fact that you are gay or straight and groping eachother in public, and more about the fact that you freaking groping eachother in public. It's just indecent, and blatantly uncourteous. Like not putting on your turning signal when you change lanes. Or getting in the 15 item line with what is obviously 50+ items. It's the disregard for everyone else that is off-putting. Again, pecks on the cheeks or lips, hugging, holding hands, all these are things no one in particular cares about. But any couple, straight or not, that is sucking eachothers faces like the freakin cure for cancer is in there is going to get noses turned up at them. I don't like categorizing words like Homophobic expressly because of things like this. It bunches people up into either A. or B. Which is completely moronic. You can't shove the entire range of human emotion and experience into slot one or slot two. There are definitely people in the world who 'hate' the gay populace, and you are right to call them out for their intolerance. But to shove every person who simply doesn't 'like' watching two people make out in public a whateveraphob is ironically close-minded.
