(7,117 posts)47. Homophobic? As a lesbian, no.

And I'll tell my friend Scottie, who is also gay and from whom I stole the comment, that dsc says he's homophobic.
Now, please educate me, because I've only lived in this world for 60 years as a gay person, how that comment is homophobic.
I'm guessing the reason you "don't know what to say" is because it really isn't homophobic and you can't explain how it is.
Seriously, as my comment said, the guy in the photo is clearly not at all similar to Mayor Pete's lovely and intelligent husband.
So I suggest quit taking offense at anything and everything said about gay people -- even by other gay people -- even when not it's the least offensive.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
