Its a tough one, because whilst thats clearly a homophobic view I do not think that necessarily means the person themselves is homophobic. For example..my grandma was against gay marriage as she was stupidly religious (to the point where she would stress for days if we didn't say prayers before bedtime and such) and used the 'adam and eve' crap to justify it. But she had no problem with gay people in general and she ****ing loved my best mate who was gay, and flamboyantly so and he made no secret and literally told everyone on first meeting. So I would be uncomfortable calling her homophobic despite her clearly having a homophobic opinion on one matter, if that makes sense?

Of course Colleen could have also showed other sides of homophobia that I am not aware of...
This is true.Many people aren't pro gay marriage but have no problem with gays at all.Depends on your views on what marriage is more than anything else I suppose.
