You have no idea of what it's like to be worried about reprisals when it comes to being open about your sexuality, you have no clue what it feels like to not want to get close to a partner in public because it could end up resulting in violence from other people.

It's just a word for you because you've never experienced the fear of not being part of the majority. Try to have more empathy for people who aren't as lucky as you are because you will never experience abuse like that.

It's a good day, people! Queen Chuff has declared that Homophobia isn't a thing! Gay people aren't targetted at all any more! Russia no longer has a problem with them! Gay Rights are now enforced all over the globe! It's no longer illegal to be gay in places where it was half an hour ago! The Shooting at Pulse Nightclub didn't happen because Queen Chuff of Equality over here has told us all that Homophobia no longer exists!

He has made quite a few tweets actually with the word 'gay' being used in a negative context.

I cannot stand when casual homophobia is accepted in the form of 'banter' between 'lads'.

Let's wait and see if he calls somebody in the house a '******'.

I reckon if the producers had to go through every contestants social media before they went in then they'd struggle to find any housemates.

This always annoys me too. Like when Trump defended the "grab them by the pussy" remark as 'locker room talk'
