Which doesn't mean it flat-out doesn't exist, violence isn't the only form of homophobia either. But yeah, this isn't really the thread for this topic to be dredged up again.

It is the topic though. This is a prime example of how homophobia very much exists, whereas heterophobia very much does not.

It's relevant to this. You can't just wave your finger and tell me no.

I don't think this is really the thread to talk about it- maybe go to the original thread if you wish to continue the discussion.

This is absolutely disgusting though, and it's totally sickening to think that people still exist who hold these prejudices, and not only that, wish to hurt others based solely on this. It's 2015, not 1965. Hopefully him and his friend are OK.

Josh, Tom is right - It is NOT relevant to this.

The attack on Mark was discrimination, if heterophobia exists it would come under prejudice.
