merit is just trying to avoid catching gay cooties

in this day an age where "the gays" are everywhere, drinking OUR water and eating OUR food, it's a noble cause

his argument on discrimination is very akin to this dril tweet which is always a good sign

I see what you did there!

I don't agree with Frownland's dickishness, but I will fight to the death to protect his right to be a dick. (Sure, we wouldn't recognise him otherwise).

Be grossed out then, but that's still something that you can change as opposed to innate things like gender and sexuality. The world isn't going to change just because of your poor understanding of sexuality, don't be so entitled.
Yeah it's okay I think to be grossed out. You just don't have to go on about it. I'd like to think I'm not a homophobe, but if I see a scene on TV with two guys kissing I do tend to turn away. No point in being hypocritical about it. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it, at all; I just don't want to see it. In the same way that I don't like other things on TV but would never protest against them (gardening programmes, for example) If that makes me a homophobe, then so be it, (I hope it doesn't) but I'd be a very quiet one, and anyway I'd rather be sincere and honest than pretend to be something I'm not.

Replace gay with ugly and if you sound ridiculous then you're probably being homophobic. I always thought it was kind of a non-issue tbh. Kisses are pretty innocent and it's not like they're ****ing ****ing.

That means you’re bigoted against gay love. You don’t have to be gay to appreciate two men expressing love for one another. It’s about loving love. If you’re repulsed by gay love you’re a homophobe. You should see the beauty in it even if it doesn’t give a boner.

When I see two gay dudes kissing in public I walk up to them and just start clapping.

I think I get your sarcasm but where I live it’s still a pretty big statement, unfortantutely.

I always liked, "You can be gay just don't do it near me." Like, I've decided to recognize your right not to be killed but you're still repulsive and should live in a sewer.

Oh ja I know I was just being jokey. I've even heard the sentiment here.
