What year are you in? Should they even be on Tinder if they're still in school? (or is this like college/uni stuff)

I don't think homophobia is ever acceptable, jut like racism isn't, sexism isn't etc. However it is quite common for gay people to pretend to be homophobic before they actually come out in order to deflect attention away from people realising they actually are gay. I guess it's just an insecurity issue that only goes away once you accept who you are.
