Heterophobia

I was reading a article about Adam Lambert performing in Kuala Lumpur. The article was about the protesting by the conservative Pan-Malaysia Islamic Party (PAS).

But what I want to talk about is the post of one of the comments. the person stated "homophobics are causing heterophobia among us gays if they keep being repulsive like this". I find this an interesting comment, as I have never really looked at it at the angle of this reader. Is the GLBTIQ community becoming heterophobic, because they will not accept us, is this our way of turning the tables on them??

I would have thought as human beings that we are capable of removing the "phobic" epidemic, but it appears that we are more capable of creating it. With the push for equal rights for marriage, changing the law for same sex parents especially gay dads, the reduction of gay teen suicide being in the media and on the agenda. The success rate of these causes are very low at this stage and the light at the end of the tunnel is a very long way. Are we taking the quick get out of jail card, and now using heterophobia for the reason for non acceptance by heterosexual, so we now don't accept them??

History will tell you that homosexuality, bisexuality and heterosexuality have been around since the day man and women become creatures on this planet. Heterosexuality was given the role of the superior sexual preference due to it ability to breed. Today we have the technology to create babies through other means other then sexual intercourse. Is the heterosexual world losing it grip of the ruler and doesn't want to accept equality is for everyone, or is it that the GLBTIQ community found another way of fight back?? Who is right and who is wrong??

Let us all work together and remove all references to "phobia"
