Monkeyfist: I Am Homophobic

I am homophobic (literally, "afraid of non-heterosexuals") to the extent that I accept the exclusive validity of "traditional" notions of gender, of masculinity or femininity. I assume, as most people do, that everyone around me is heterosexual, unless they make it clear that they aren’t. By making this assumption, I expect a uniform range of behaviors from everyone I encounter. This expectation has everything to do with why life is extremely difficult for those who are homosexual and for those who’s sexual identity lies somewhere in between.
