Meh...the word homophobe has been extremely abused and tweaked to allow queers to label and attack anyone that doesn't like them going naked on streets and ruining purpose of marriage. So you really gotta ask yourself, if by homophobe they mean its original and true meaning (aka FEAR of gays, because PHOBIA means FEAR) or their twisted abused and bigoted definition of the word


The purpose of marraige is to trade property for other property. Typically livestock was traded in exchange for a man to gain exclusive sexual access to a woman. There is absolutely nothing religious or sacred in the origin of marraige. NOTHING. Going by the rest of your ill informed and misguided rant, I take it that you obviously have no idea what it feels like to have to worry about discrimination. Never having to fear a group of people who are hostile toward you for a bullshit reason. Never having to struggle daily with the pointless hatred and judgement of others.


Yeah, instead I have to deal with:

- Affirmative action: Some black guy less qualified than me will probably get the job just because of skin colour, since this is clearly the way to make things equal and makes more sense than "best man for the job"

- Reverse Racism: It's perfectly fine for a black guy to call me a cracker/honkey, but if I call him the n word (it's funny how I'm even afraid to write it out in a forum like this in fear of a ban) then I'm the racist

- Having my tax dollars go to support Native Aboriginals (A Canadian problem, not sure if it's similar worldwide) who don't pay taxes themselves. They don't work at all and have high rates of poverty, and the white man has to pay for it. A lot of them are alcoholics and/or addicted to oxycotin. And although it's their own fault, the white man gets blamed because we "stole" their land 400+ years ago, and another excuse/cop out they use is the residential schools we put them, the last of which were shut down over 20 years ago...but were being phased out way before that. Also Natives get better treatment in the criminal "justice" system, people of aboriginal descent are by law to get lighter sentences and avoid jailtime whenever possible. 

 

Yeah I have to deal with all this shit since the generations before me were racists and owned slaves. I had nothing to do with it but my generation is suffering the consequences. 


Oh boo hoo, Affirmative Action, "reverse"-racism (there's no such thing as reverse-racism, it's all just racism) and having the government waste your money getting you down? As somebody who lost both scholarships and jobs to Affirmative Action, I can say that program is horrible but it is not the same as actually being afraid for your personal well-being. It is not the same as constantly having to endure hatred, ridicule and far more brutal discrimination. Do not pretend to understand and NEVER pretend that you have to deal with anything even approaching what a gay man has to. Personally, I despise Affirmative Action, all forms of racism as well as our government's handling of Native issues (by providing them with this money we ensure that no real solution will be created, that they remain in the appalling state that they currently exist in, all while acting as a burden on our budget and poison to race relations).
