It's like denying that you have some element of racism in your heart is a pretty good indicator that you have some element of racist feelings in your heart, even if you have not really examined them. It's the reason that people like Stephen Colbert mock those who claim to be "color-blind".
I disagree with this completely lol. Homophobia is not being grossed out by the thought of doing sexual things with other men when you are not attracted to men.
I am grossed out by the thought of doing sexual things with *anyone* I'm not attracted to. Regardless of their gender. And since I'm not attracted to any woman, it grosses me out to think about going down on one. This is not homophobia lol.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
