Well, homophobia is generally supposed to be considered in the light of Yoda-ism "Fear leads to hate..."

Verging offtopic I guess but:

As an example though, I'm not a pedophileaphobe - I'm not afraid of pedophiles. I think what they do is wrong.

The number of people who are "afraid" of homosexuals is miniscule. Most people who you'd label "homophobic" actually just believe that homosexuality is wrong, not that it's scary.

So the "homophobic" tag is pretty silly.

They are not scared of homosexuals, but of homosexuality. It represents a threat to set values and a set way of living to certain individuals. If it wasn't considered a threat to those values, why suppress it? It's homophobia.
