Contrary to popular belief, the actual meaning of the term homophobe is a man who don't fancy the idea of having sex with another man.
That's perfectly normal, heterosexuals are born with it. To make it simple: omophobe=heterosexual.
It's commonly misused to label people who refuse to join gay parades.
It's also misused to describe bigots who persecute gays for their sexual beliefs.
A normal homophobe (heterosexual) doesn't hate gay people, he just doesn't want to be one of them.
