Fear that gay people will become as promiscuous as the Mormons reputedly are, thus shutting down the sanctity of the entire institution of marriage, the latter being strongly tied to religious reasoning (though religion itself should not be to blame; people of all walks support the Faith and none should be disrespected for it)
Also fear that your friend might actually be happier kicking it with some sweet, awesome guy instead of saying smack about that one girl whom your group of friends talks about as if she were a slut. Goodness forbid your friend should be happier being in love with a man instead of trying to get in her pants.
Don't hate. Remember the Civil Rights Movement? Remember the struggles blacks went through so they wouldn't be disrespected anymore in public? This is the exact same thing. Remember the discrimination post-911 that Muslims went through in the US? Was that just? No. Just because "fag", "nigga", and "a-rab" are popularized terms, doesn't make them right.

"Dude, I told my little bro not to be a fag, and he told me I had a case of hemophobia."

A word developed for the purpose of deflecting people's dislike and/or disapproval of homosexual behavior and/or practice. It is merely an attempt to overshadow any rational and respectable arguments against homosexuality.
Man A: I disapprove of homosexuality because I truly believe it's nothing short of lust mingled with anxiousness and confusion. I believe homosexuals have a strong sexual desire that they have trouble containing and expressing. When this desire is paired with anxiousness, it is expressed in unnatural manners. Such as same-gender sex.
Man B: I agree, but I also believe homosexuality can be a psychological reaction. Such as women suppressing their natural desire for men as a response to an abusive relationship. Or men suppressing their natural desire for women as a response to an emasculating trauma.
Man C: Whatever, you dudes are just homophobes.
Man A & B: Why?
Man C: Just, whatever. You have homophobia. That's why.

Every one knows Homo in Latin means "one" and Phobia means "fear of" in Latin, thus a homophobia obviously means the dreaded fear of the number one.
