I don't know why many people who contribute to this newsgroup seem to be so
hung up about whether or not somebody is gay or bi admits it or not or
whether or not they are told that this or this person is or is not gay or
bi or whatever or even whether somebody is homophobic or not.

This topic has been beaten into the ground. Andy posted a very good
response that says most of what I want to say on this subject.

If we truly want to end discrimination, we should become not only color-
blind but sexual-preference blind and bigotry-blind.  And probably blind to
a lot of other things as well.

Can I coin a new term? Homophobophobic.

Then I guess somebody will come along and describe this article as
homophobophobophobic.
