does not agreeing with homosexuality make me homophobic

Yes, because it's absolutely none of your business to express a negative view about something which does not affect you nor indeed anyone else. Add to this the history of appalling abuse and persecution gay people have face over ages and you might appreciate why posts of this type are a remnant of former legitimised intolerant times.

i never said anything relating to that statement, only that by definition, it is homophobia, but ill respond anyway.

regardless of whether paedophiles can help their attraction or not, a child can not consent to any sexual behaviour, and this makes any action a paedophile makes sexually towards a child wrong, as it is statutory rape, and against the child's will.

the paedophile, being an adult who is aware of this, and in control of their own actions, is at fault. i think it's ridiculous when anyone tries to defend paedophilia by comparing it to homosexuality, or justify homophobia by doing the same as the adult is ALWAYS at fault for raping a child. no one is 'at fault' for having consensual sex between two adults, as neither didn't want to have sex.

my point is, even though they can both be grouped as sexual attractions, one puts people at risk by merely existing, and the other harms no one. so of course, it is natural to be against paedophilia, as am i.

the two are completely unrelated because of this difference in nature, and i don't think paedophilia should ever have been brought up as people should be intelligent enough to understand the idea of consent.

I don't agree with homosexuality but am I homophobic? today i was talking to this gay male on the train and we were talking about how he came out to his family and how they reacted. he asked me my view and i said i personally dont agree with homosexuality because i believe men and women were made for each other to repopulate the human race. but i would never belittle anyone because of their sexuality because that is being a *****y person, i would not treat someone differently because they are gay i see everyone equal. he said fair enough and then i asked if he thought i was homophobic or bigoted he said no as everyone is entitled to their opinions and im not mistreating homosexuals. but this lady overheard and started shouting about how i was homophobic everyone on the carriage heard and looked, made me feel like **** for having an opinion. on my way home i am homophobic ,i see homophobic people as bully and i dont think i am one . i wanna know if others feel the same way as the lady. btw im an atheist,not religious before anyone says im a sheep for following old books

Freedom of speech not 'homophobia'. Don't contradict yourselves with social policies such as freedom and the ability to have a view & then labelling someone as being prejudice for doing what they're allowed to do

You are homophobic, yes. Disagreeing with homosexuality is homophobia, because in 'disagreeing' you are invalidating a person's identity and inferring that their sexuality is somehow less than and abnormal. This is not okay, particularly when those on the LGBTQ spectrum are already marginalized and treated poorly. Religious parents may 'disagree' with their son's homosexuality, telling him that his 'choice' is unnatural and sinful. They may profess to still love him. This does not make them any less homophobic. Your belief is more loaded than a mere opinion, as it asserts that gay people contribute less to society because they cannot procreate. As a gay woman, if you responded to me in this way, I would move seats on the train and hope that you would educate yourself and ultimately realise how damaging your opinion(s) can be. I would find your response upsetting and prejudiced, however respectfully delievered. So, if I were you, and I did not want to appear homophobic (because that seems to be your concern here) I would reevaluate my standpoint.

If you said "I have nothing against black people I just don't think black people should marry white people, because I don't agree with it", would you be shocked if someone called you racist? Think through your 'opinins'. You aren't being rational, you're being bigoted and complicit in homophobia. Of course you're going to have a hard time accepting this - you're a straight man. Stop licking your privilege and educate yourself. This thread has turned into a heterosexual **** off, reassuring one another that you're not homophobic. The ones on the receiving end of homophobia get to decide that.

Nothing but bs

Fantastic counter-argument.

I wouldn't even call that racist tbh. Am I racist for wanting black children?

If you mean as opposed to children of any other colour, then yes.
