Heterophobia

Revision as of 14:18, 8 December 2022 by imported>Coldcreation (In 2010, in response to suicides amongst gay adolescents, an Ally Week was held at St. Charles North High School in St. Charles, Illinois. On the first day of this Ally Week, though, three students arrived wearing "Straight Pride" t-shirts. The back of these t-shirts displayed "Leviticus 20:13", a verse stating that men who perform homosexual acts should be put to death.)

Heterophobia is the fear, dislike, hatred or prejudice against anyone that is defined as having heterosexual tendencies. It can range from contempt to outright physical contact or potentially even murder from people who oppose their sexual orientation.

While very few instances of heterophobia have been documented due to it not being as widespread as other forms of bigotry, it does still exist among a few people, most of whom adhere to some form of radical feminism that believes lesbians are superior to straight people (as can be seen in the image on the right).
