Of all the prejudices out there it seams that homophobia is the most tolerated, Why is that?
If somebody makes fun of any racial group or a person's religion they will catch loads of flak.
But it seams that making fun of homosexuals is rather accepted with the possible exception of the gay and lesbian community and liberals.
Prejudice of most kinds (except against criminals) is completely uncalled for in my opinion.
However I do find myself to be slightly homophobic (in the literal sense, I support gay rights and feel they should not be discriminated against.) and am ashamed of my homophobia.
