If a straight guy even rolls his eyes at a gay much screeching follows. It's tiring seeing these snippy gay fellows making all this noise.
Is it just another version of "minority rules?"
Gays don't truly hate straights, unless they are some bizarrely off the wall radical. Otherwise, they'd hate their mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters, who will most likely be straight.
What they hate are homophobes and those who want to restrict their freedoms and rights in the name of their religion or THEIR version of "family values."
After all, I don't see gays organizing to restrict straight people's rights, exclude straight people from civic institutions or jobs, or preventing them from protecting their families. THAT is hate.

I agree with this. The eye rolling could have nothing to do with the person being gay, but it will most assuredly be made into an issue revolving around gay versus straight.
It's not okay for anybody to hate anybody else, period.

Please provide real world examples of gay people hating straight people. Ones that dont involve the gay mans sexuality.

Probably the most improperly used word on this board.
It's not hate, it's a disagreement on how one should live their life. Get it straight. It's comments like yours that cause friction between the two groups.

So you agree with the premise that it is considered acceptable for gays to hate straights? That's laughable.

There are people who hate gays. Why don't you ask the gay people who get beat up and killed whether homophobia is just a matter of disagreement or hate? Why don't you ask all the gays who get lashed in certain countries or sentenced to hanging whether homophobes just disagree with them or hate them? Homophobia comes in different degrees, and some of those degrees do actually involve unrestrained, unadulterated hate.
So you agree with the premise that it is considered acceptable for gays to hate straights? That's laughable.
Uh, but homophobia does exist.
Then Heterophobia exists.
