Comment on Did I used to be homophobic? Am I?

  OK. I’ll ask you what I ask homophobes.

  Tell me about the time when, as a teen, you choose who and what to be attracted to. Whatever your sexual needs and foibles, when and how did you choose them? What about things that turn you off? That was also a decision!

  You sound exactly like a homophobe. “They made that choice!”

    Whether it’s a choice or something that was imposed upon them isn’t really relevant, deprogramming either case needs therapy with some extra steps.
