Homophobic? Maybe You’re Gay

Every -phobia has a -philia, though the word "homophobia" was made up about 30 years ago or so, maybe they weren't thinking about the Homophile. I'd prefer to use standard english as to avoid confusion. What's wrong with somebody just saying whether or not they like or don't like sodomites, and skip all this newly infused terminology. And it wouldn't be depriving the SPLC of their love for attacking the intolerant. In this case their target would be those intolerant of sodomy --clear, simple and biblical.
