Like Manz said, you can hold your own opinion on the issue, but once it starts leaking into law, it should be stopped. Law should be treated objectively, and hence there should be no laws barring homosexuality in any way.

Some people have different culutural background/beliefs/religions, so if they see something different or "not allowed" for them, they start thinking its bad. Homosexuality is not wrong, its love like anything else, and I just don't know why everyone think that gay love is dirty and as some people say it, "icky". I would like to see homosexuality as well as other things become accepted in society, but that obviously won't happen until a long time...

you can't always equate it to religion, as previously stated by some, since common sense sometimes overcomes that... I'm personally Catholic, but im totally pro gay-rights. as long as i'm not affected by it, i think they should have the right to do whatever they want. Homophobia's an annoying thing and our society will need to learn to overcome it before the world can have peace. People need to learn to understand and respect things, even if they're strange to them; they're not asking you to watch, so there's no big deal.

People hate for all kinds of reasons. Personally, I don't think homophobia is any better than racism. Gay people usually have less rights than everyone else, and that's wrong no matter what the reason is. :\

i think the core of all prejudices is a lack of understanding.

i mean, like, in some cases, if something is seriously wrong, like pedophilia or something, then it's not that... but when there's something that doesnt hurt anyone and stuff, it seems to be a lack of understanding, or a need to feel superior to someone.

People are, by definition, flawed.

Genetics is just not perfect. In some cases, this manifests itself as a physical condition—Down's syndrome, congenital myopathy, etc. In others, it comes out in mentality. Schizophrenics, people with bipolar disorder..

People who're slightly luckier are the ones with inherent personality flaws. The inability to tolerate racial, ethnic, gender or preferential differences, for one. Of course, they may just be plain irritating.

Either way. I don't fault people for it, I just shake my head and move on.. unless they're a hardcore Christian, in which case I may occasionally force them into questioning their beliefs before leaving. =]

edit: Also, fun fact: many hardcore homophobes are suppressing some sort of homosexual tendencies, deep down. And an even greater percentage of people who are indifferent, but awkward, around homophobia are. I know these things from experience.

Just my opinion, but as for "open acts of homosexuality IN PUBLIC", I don't care to know specifics, but I expect that my reaction would have been the same for excess PDA (beyond holding hands, a hug or a loving kiss, and no, slobber-swapping is not a loving kiss), regardless of homosexual or heterosexual, since I believe intimatacy in a relationship should be personal & private between the two parties and not a public display.
Well this thing in public was hands-down-the-hatch, And there were children around as well, Needless to say it was broken up shortly after, The fact still stands, If you're gay and you know it, Slap your hands. >.> Gross, gross.

Any sexual acts in public are offensive, whether it's homosexual or heterosexual.
