No, but there's a lot of overlap between gender norms and sexuality, so with that and the fact that it came from Katie Hopkins I'm entirely open to the idea that it is homophobic.

It could be used in a homophobic way, but in this instance no.

So what if Perez behaves feminine? Every guy has something feminine about them (being on a BB Forum for all of us guys is the perfect example) and I'm pretty sure that every woman has something more masculine about them? There's nothing wrong in that, and only narrow minded people like Katie Hopkins can agree with her on that imo.

I think she considered his failings as a human being to outweigh the irrelevant issue of his sexuality. Being gay does not make you right or a good person or even define a person, it is a small part of the whole.

Of course not,I don't see why it's even an issue,so many overly sensitive people thinking people are having a pop at them,it's laughable,all it means is be strong and stop being childish,it's a compliment to men ,if anything.

Absolutely not, there is no correlation between the two, it's dumb to assume otherwise.
