Am I homophobic

I wanted strangers opinion on my question

Am I homophobic if I don't support the LGBT community. But I'm okay with you coming out as gay or any other sexualities. Like "I'm okay with that. You can hangout with me even if you're Gay. I don't care." And I wanna be neutral but at the same time I have a nagging feeling I'm homophobic with gay couples. Is it homophobic of me to think that? Or I just don't fully support something.

There's a difference between ''support'' and ''respect''. In your case, you respect the LGBTQIA+ community without supporting it. I, personally, don't see a problem with that. As long as you aren't disrespecting anybody for being a part of the community, I couldn't give a dang darn diddly shit. 2 reply

There's no neutral position when it comes to human rights. The LGBT community isn't some football club you support, you are either for or against LGBT rights. Simple as that. 2 reply

If you are fine with people being gay and coming out, and you don't mind hanging out with them or being friends with them, why don't you support them? Also what is it that you don't support? Them being public about it? LGBT marriages? LGBT adoption? Sex change? Crossdressing? LGBT is not just about being gay or straight, the spectrum is a mile wide...... reply

I think they're is no in-between. Either you support the LGBTQ+ community, either you're against it. You can't be neutral. Imagine saying "I don't support black people. I'm okay with them but I don't support them." That would be racist. It's the same for LGBTQ+. 1 reply

bureau of investigaytion ✦ 06 05,2021

"if i dont support the lgbt community" is a vague word choice. is there any underlying reason for that aside from being "neutral?" im asking this bc two of my friends have the same views as u and it turns out they were homophobic. the reason why they wanna stay neutral and cant fully support our community is bc of their slight aversion & uneasiness...... reply

this is honestly how most people are, its usually because you aren't used to it. Personally as long as you aren't committing hate crimes, and acting homophobic, staying neutral is fine for me, just try your best to change your mindset reply

Yeah sounds like you have some homophobia into you, just because you're neutral with people being gay doesn't mean that you're not a homophobe reply

it's similar to how you can't "respectfully disagree" with someone being a person of color. it's not their choice. you either support them or you don't. unfortunately there's not really an in-between. 2 reply
