Please, just stop with that bigoted, homophobic meme! The people who pulled this are HOMOPHOBES. MOST homophobes are HETEROSEXUAL! Not every homophobic thing that is happen is done by some self-loathing 'mo. You have to realize that homosexuals are a MINORITY, we are not the MAJORITY, and the ones who enact these hateful laws/actions against us, are usually heterosexuals. Yes, there have been TWO...that's right TWO studies, of about 350 people, where a MINORITY of those people who are homophobes get aroused by homosexual imagery. This DOES NOT make them homosexuals! And, keep in mind, this makes them a MINORITY within a MINORTY, thus, an EXCEPTION, not the RULE!

So please, for the love of all that is holy and unholy, when you hear hoof beats, think HORSES not ZEBRAS!

THANK YOU!

ETA: Understand this is not a personal concern against you, it is a generalized concern, your post just happened to be the most recent use of this meme and it really rubs me the wrong way.
