That's still heterosexuality. I have no desire to see men kiss each other, but that isn't the same thing as being actively against said kissing. A lack of attraction is not the same thing as revulsion.

Exactly. And that's the key thing here. Heterosexuality only means "lack of attraction" towards the same sex. You need a different term to describe the repulsion that is prevalent, and therefore I use the term homophobia.

My point is that you are not describing revulsion. You are describing a lack of attraction.

Lack of attraction is feeling neutral. Anything beyond that could be defined as revulsion.

Look at it this way, a naive example but still.

If I watch a woman's hands for example, I feel practically neutral. But the closer I come to her private parts the more attracted I feel.

With the same sex it's the opposite. I am neutral towards watching a man's arms or shoulders, but the closer I come to his intimate parts the more revulsion I would feel.

Lack of attraction would be to feel neutral towards the whole body. Lack of attraction I feel to a child, as I don't feel revulsion even to a child's penis.
