Hmmmm lets see, people misuse a word, perverting its meaning... HyogaRott Send a noteboard - 14/12/2012 07:29:11 PM
if you don't have a real argument you should not be in this thread. you can't expect us to believe you are this dumb with regards to how homophobe is used in modern society....


..and just becasue it is a bunch of people that do so I should just shut up and get along... NOPE.

Not gonna happen.

I don't care how many people misuse it, they are ALL wrong. Everyone who misues a word that ends in "phobe" to indicate hatred (regardless of if there actually IS hatred as opposed to simple disagreement) is an IDIOT, and I will take great pleasure in informing them of it.

If you don't like it, don't misuse the word and you won't have to hear it.

-hi ho Rocinante... AWAY!!!

WTF does "I don’t care what their intent was. I care what it was that they intended" mean? - 11/12/2012 09:03:23 PM 692 Views
Yeah I read that twice to see if that was right *NM* - 11/12/2012 09:36:55 PM 311 Views
Part of me pities Scalias decline, because he could once nimbly and convincly argue black is white. - 12/12/2012 07:09:56 PM 663 Views

Your whole rant lacks any logic - 12/12/2012 03:46:34 PM 686 Views
+1 - logic is not his strong suit. *NM* - 12/12/2012 04:21:09 PM 270 Views
His comment references the authors (NOT words) intent in both negative and affirmative. - 12/12/2012 06:45:02 PM 643 Views

The SCotUS is no place for raging homophobes. - 13/12/2012 04:48:30 AM 790 Views
Sorry you don't like it, but what he said is true. - 13/12/2012 03:11:42 PM 695 Views
Lol. Homophobia is synonymous w/ homonegativism. It's not meant to convey a true phobia *NM* - 13/12/2012 03:28:01 PM 384 Views
So then what we need is a definition of homophobia? - 13/12/2012 09:56:15 PM 722 Views
Re: So then what we need is a definition of homophobia? - 13/12/2012 11:16:46 PM 664 Views
-phobe : Greek -phobos, adj. derivative of phóbos fear, panic - 13/12/2012 11:32:14 PM 686 Views
Do you have a similar problem with "xenophobia?" Because it's exactly the same thing. - 14/12/2012 01:30:24 AM 622 Views
xenophobia is the fear of the alien... WTF are you trying to say? - 14/12/2012 03:03:09 AM 684 Views
No. You are patently, objectively incorrect. - 14/12/2012 08:39:00 AM 602 Views
An aside. - 14/12/2012 01:21:32 PM 685 Views
Don't believe me, ask a Greek it is after all THEIR word. I gave you some extra capitals, happy now? *NM* - 14/12/2012 02:56:09 PM 382 Views
