Ive never felt any hate towards gay people, but sodomy just grosses me out so much. I can't even think about it without retching. But when talking to others, it seems like this alone is enough to get me labeled a homophone. Why does everything get you pinned as homophobic?

Hmm not homophobic, but a VERY common trait of those who identify that way. Basically you're being tarred with a very wide brush.

A dilemma, for sure. Here's a thought: How about not discussing a subject that disgusts you to the point of retching?

I'll answer the same way I answered a similar question. Why do you care?

If you're not gay, why are you spending so much time talking/thinking about it?

No.. If it disgusts you, that doesn't make you homophobic. Calling it sodomy, however, just might.

Why does anal sex gross you out? Have you seen the plethora of oozes and goos and multitude of other objects/things that come out of vaginas? Do you think vaginal sex is gross?

If it disgusts you so much, why are you thinking about it and talking about it? Do you buy magazines dedicated to it, too?

Just curious why your revulsion towards sodomy is anyone's business other than your own? I mean, how exactly does this topic come up in a conversation?

How exactly does " everything" get one pinned as homophobic?

Who said that hetero people can't tap the back door of their partner?
