63. It can be seen as a way avoiding any discussion of heterosexuals being homophobic.

Not that there ever IS any discussion of why heterosexuals can be homophobic. I've been living among heterosexuals all my life. The vast majority of them are either very happy with me or totally uninterested in me. Every so often there's one that isn't.

One day I'd like to sit one of them down and say:

"Okay. I'd really like to know. What your ACTUAL beef with me? Every time you talk about it seems to be something different about me that you don't like."
