Again it just shows a level of predudice. If you or anyone who IS* against homosexuality wanna use this as an excuse for calling gays 'screaming queens' then thats their predudice. Personally I can allow for the fact that people will find something 'small' offensive and still allow for people to fight the 'bigger' issues without fear of it being lessened.

(I've capped 'IS' just incase you think I'm assuming YOUR against homosexuality, which I dont).
