Why are people homophobic? | What's Behind Prejudice? Episode 2 | BBC Ideas 

@@natehtf5760 because they love eachother

Why are people Aletheiaphobic? I can't imagine giving a talk using a word, that I didn't understand the meaning thereof. Using the word phobic is a mockery of mental health, pejorative, and inaccurate.

Stop linking "racism" to a lifestyle choice. It simply not accurate.

@@dehydratedcactus9033 I've always thought of myself as a sensible and rational person, and in a world where most people are like sheep and many are governed more by emotion than logic a lot of people don't "get" someone like me for lack of better words.

could anyone please explain why I'm homophobic... because being homophobic is goddamn irritating

@@akid9390 I don't know, but suspect it's from years of being socialized to believe it's wrong, especially if you have a religious background. What to do about it? You can start right here on RU-vid. I suggest the video TEDX Talks homosexuality.

This makes me furious and sad. I'm sorry. Please don't let them win. Keep holding hands.

@Ruby Heart what is your age

@Earthrealm well, let's do the same with straights, dont go around holding hands with your partner because it attracts attention and gives off too much heteronormativity. start hiding yourselves so that lgbtq people dont get offended. this is BASICALLY what you just said

Im really sorry about what has happened to you. keep holding hands. its not their business as to what your love life is and if they think that it is their business, then they're the bad guys

You're lucky you are still alive because some Homophobes go as far as killing gay people What's more sickening is that News reporting's on Murders of Gay people in the comments praise the murderer And they say we have a "Mental Illness"

Sadly, people don't seem to get that.

@@thingsareconstantlyhappeni9811 Right...

Agreed, fully.

@Amin Yashed and how is that?

if you claim to be anything but heterosexual you are bad.

It is indeed disappointing and surprising. Many people can’t critically think for themselves, and stick to these rather… outdated and ignorant beliefs. People can be educated overtime, and especially as more people come out as apart of the LGBTQ community, they will be forced to interact with them. It’s just shocking cause, people apart of the LGBTQ+ community are just normal people. Normal people with jobs, businesses, and even families.

Sinners!

@@alanholm77 Karens!

It’s lovely to see a nice person outside of the lgbt community being reasonable.

@@SquamataReptile i think after a bit of research. i’m starting to understand the mind of the bigots. most homophobes are also transphobic and even racist. some even ableist. the reason for this which i believe is that they don’t like oppression. but in a bad way. they see an oppressed group getting special treatment and get jealous, because they’re jealous, they feel the need to be bad. e.g. lgbt (oppresses group) has parades every yeah for a month (equity to boost them/the “special treatment”), then straight people (non oppressed group) see said oppressed group and become jealous because they are not getting parades. “when’s straight parade gonna be a thing”. but some take it to the next step and actually start to really hate lgbt. same for any oppressed group. “when’s white history month, why do black people even need a month”. that’s just how i think it is. i’m not 100% sure. some of it could be through how they were raised. some of it is because they have a traditional mindset and because of that, they don’t understand what’s natural and what’s not

​@SquamataReptile I'm also a straight male. Homosexual relationships are natural and should be treated equally as straight relationships, same with marriages. I feel like the biggest reason lots of people are homophobic isn't even mentioned in this video, and that is religion

@@joey.99 exactly. but also cos heterosexuality is so forced onto us by society. it’s made “the norm” so when people don’t see “the norm” they think it’s “differen” and “weird”

Legit every prejudice, racism, sexism, homophobia, it’s all in the sacred book

@Ruby Heart k

Exactly it’s like u have to be absolute trash for people to like u. I haven’t been bullied but, I have seen it happen to other people. Luckily I live in the U.S and a lot of people around my town aren’t very homophobic or at least won’t attack u for it. I know a lot of gay people. it’s still terrible to see so many people who act like being homophobic gives them power to hurt others. I just finished a show on Netflix where two women ended up together. It was called “Jurassic camp” that’s just the short version of the name. And I looked up the scenes between them and saw so many homophobic comments saying it was gross. While there was a lot of good to it still sucked to see ppl haven’t grown up a little and learned some respect. They don’t have to love but, at least respect it especially when it doesn’t harm them.

homophobia is genetic for me

@@bobosu5823 Well that shows how your parents are💀

They do wanna be gay fool Ur a disgrace to teenagers

@Amin Yashed can you give me a reason?

@Amin Yashed on why gay marriage shouldnt happen?

@Amin Yashed Marriage is used to show the love you feel for that person and that you are going to the stage of marrying them doesn't have to do anything with homosexuality

@Amin Yashed I'm a Christian, but I'm gay. I've read the Bible many times. God, wants us to be free and make our own choices. Being gay however is not a choice, BUT marriage doesn't necessarily have to be between a man and a woman, thats why in some countries gay marriage is allowed. Also, marriage is the union of you and the person you love, no matter the gender no matter the sexuality. I'm sure God doesn't differ us from any other human being. Because we're human, no matter our identified gender or sexualitym also about the population we are litteraly so many people on the earth like what

@Com D Uh... nope. A loving, consensual relationship between two adults will never bother me.

Thanks, it's hard to find a discussion about this, seriously

I think most people are open minded, they're just lead by a vocal minority who reinforce those whack views. Am I wrong on this?

This comment is definitely the best answer to this. It also gives answers to why racism and xenophobia exists as well. Early humanity was about survival and sticking together as a tribe. Anything foreign to humans have always scared them, which is a defense mechanism for survival. There’s still a lot of work to be made, but I’m still glad to say humanity has gotten better compared to what shows throughout history.

You are 100% correct, but it should be noted that phobias and homophobia are not the same. Homophobia, despite its name, is not an actual phobia. I suppose it could be, theoretically, where an individual genuinely has an intense anxious fear of gay people that requires professional therapeutic help to overcome, but such a thing is rare, and I’ve personally never heard of it. Homophobia typically refers to the irrational dislike or hatred of gay people, as the suffix “-phobia” can mean either an irrational dislike or hate; or a mental condition in which one has an intense, irrational fear of something (e.g., claustrophobia).

@@immortalsun Exactly a lot of people choose to be homophobic. Not everyone but, a lot of people. While I will say the lgbt population has greatly increased recently. And a lot of them are younger so maybe things will eventually change. Maybe not completely but, I hope people can feel no shame in who they are one day.

Just a curious question sorry if it make you uncomfortable but what happened?

@@subhabaskaran1849 when society sees that you don't fit in the system, they discriminate you. If it was not for my family support I would probably freak out . Besides that, you have to be a woman to understand what I am saying. I overcame. All the hard time was important for me to grow. Thank you.

@@mariah2516 I'm male and have no trouble understanding you. I recall by far the stupidest thing I ever heard, back in 1991, namely that our Western society is individualistic. I know that because I'm individualistic and because of it have been seen as weird, a misfit. I don't do the things I'm "supposed" to do. For example, never married because I never found that someone I absolutely couldn't live without, I've never been interested in status and conspicuous consumption, have a wide range of interests outside the "normal" interests a guy should have like sports, and so on. A classic example would be in my early forties, I had 2 guys I worked with ask me what someone my age was doing skydiving. I still don't know what my age has to do with how I'm affected by gravity and aerodynamics. In summary, if anyone here thinks we live in an individualistic society, could I sell you some premium priced shares in Nortel Networks, Enron, Eastman Kodak, Bre-X Mining, Bramalea Inc. or Sears Canada?

@@Abitibidoug I don't understand about shares...sorry...but at that time I had to accept I was alone without his father. Not that I wanted, but life put me in that situation. So, instead of being sad I made it great. Having a baby without a father was not my intention.

@@subhabaskaran1849 my baby father left me when I was 3 month pregnant.That was 28 years ago. It was sad but I overcame.

i think this is also because straight men are pressured to be "manly" as in rude, homophobic and sexist as well - to make obscene jokes about women and just be horrible people in general. Gay guys are accepting of it and they respect women a lot more than straight guys do, and that's what most girls want, a sense of safety. Most gay men also tend to work on their appearance a lot so that checks out too.

Look, I'm a christian too, but I don't believe that homosexuality is a sin either. If you search deep down where it says it's a sin(and sorry for my bad english bible names, I'm brazilian, I do not speak english that well), you'll find people saying things such as romans passage, taken out of context of the ral meaning that was orgy, corintius, translating the words arsenekoitai(rapist) and malakoi (male slut) as both being homosexuals. They use leviticus and genesis from sodom and gomorra, both old testament and from an era witch cristians don't take advice, even sodom and gomorra taking out of context the many zoophilia happening there. I mean, there's just a ton more to uncover and if you really wanna did down it's gonna be a long ride

No one needs to be forgiven for being gay. It’s not a sin. This statement is not doing gay people any favors. You’re just saying once again that we’re wrong for being ourselves. That we’ll be punished and deserve pity. I pity you and christians like you need to rethink sun and align its meaning with something that isn’t love. Gay people love each other. Not a sin.

@@snowwyzenn do something

It's not about religion. It's that your body subconsciously thinks reproduction is it's ultimate goal. Your road to adulthood is full of hormonal changes made to make you attractive to the **opposite** gender and to reproduce. It's a meaningless never-ending cycle. Why do you think the activity that gives you the most dopamine is s** or mast******ng? Because your body is rewarding you for achieving your goal. Ensuring the specie's survival. Passing on your DNA. As we grow old we lose most of our child making abilities and slowly turn into disposable trash. Then die. That's it. That's the cycle of life. Birth, Reproduction, Death. Being unable to make children in this type of life makes you technically disabled. You know. You won't convince people with Autism they are normal. They cannot communicate with the outside. What's outside their heads. You won't go and convince them they are normal. Sure you won't kill them either, but you'll still recognize that something is wrong with them. Not being able to pass on your genes is basically failing the ultimate point of life. Puberty is a whole phase for preparing you for that. Why do you think that your body dies after being unable to reproduce ?

@@greshengaines7099 dopamine is used to reward you for doing the thing.

It happened to me the same but luckily I stopped being homophobic 4 years ago.

@Democrats Hate America I never said it meant someone who attacks gay people, I know full well it can be just a mild dislike of gay people. As a paleo-conservative I disagree with your points on it being a mental illness. There is nothing inherently detrimental about them playing on sports teams, that one literally I don’t understand one bit. The others I understand why you and other very educated and sophisticated people around the world have concerns over although I would disagree with you on most of what you raised. I don’t think a law abiding individual, who simply tells his/her boss the truth when they’re asked do you have a wife/husband etc that they’re not straight, deserves to be fired. As for certain professions like school teachers, they’ve been allowed to be teachers for decades now I think if they were disproportionately inclined to abuse kids in a school setting then we would’ve heard about it somehow. More often you hear about a woman teacher in her 20s/30s getting in-appropriately getting involved with a teenage student. Adoption I will give you that one, a lot of gay people are highly left wing and degenerate and anti-tradition so I think adoption is one we need more data. I don’t believe that you can turn someone gay though, it’s a cross that no one chooses to burden. As for marriage, again I’m quite undecided, to me there’s convincing arguments from both sides. In my opinion if a liberal “Christian in name only” church wants to marry a gay couple why is it so bad. Surely if you’re a committed Christian you’ll know it’s not real in the eyes of God or your church. Would a genuine Christian recognise a secular marriage as a real marriage, or a divorced couple marrying for that matter? I don’t think they would so I would just treat the whole gay marriage thing the same way. As someone who is a paleo-con, very anti-abortion, divorce, public displays of improper dress, excessive use of bad language in most conversations, and is mildly Catholic and gay I agree with most of what you say. I despise the majority of gay people who talk about it all the time, make it very public and go on degenerate “pride” parades.

@I Hate Democrats 1. If LEADING SCIENTISTS say that homosexuality isn’t a disease, then they’re probably right. Same thing with the earth being round and vaccines not causing autism. Why do people believe that sort of stuff? Because it is backed up by facts and evidence. What do you have to support your case? “them dang libtards bribed ‘em docs to tell ‘‘em being gay isn’t a diesease”. Secondly, I do not like mayonnaise. Do I HAVE to eat it? No. Can other people eat it? As long as they never show their preference in public because that shit disgusts me. You see how stupid that is? Because YOU don’t like something, people have to hide? This is why all you Christians have a bad rep. Cuz y’all hate for no reason and then call everyone a libtard and such when you lose an argument. 😬😬😬

Nope,had to say this but I disagree with you, even if one were to be an agnostic or an atheist,one would think about what's the best for a social order and it's social cohesion, isn't it discrimination that whomsoever doesn't approve of homosexual behaviour is branded as a homophobic with a sublime message that those who have an anti LGBT stance are ignorant and uneducated, I mean their portrayal is very poor in the liberal media. Let's assume if being a homosexual totally normal and like an everyday thing, what's stopping people to parade a march for incestous relationship as long as these people match under the umbrella of liberty, freedom and democracy ( btw I am a fan of all these things), Cause people citing that homosexuality is ok and natural cause animals also do that, this same logic can be used in the support for incest and pedophilic acts.I don't hate anyone, I just wish to get people have a thorough introspective approach to destructive form of liberalism,where disagreeing is not an option unless you think and act within the status quo.

I think your opinion is wrong. Most anti-gays nowadays are reactionary, not religious. They react to the actions and movements of LGBT organisations, and their most common gripe seems to be with what LGBT people are doing to the culture. The gays got even more hate thrown their way when the government started getting creative with their definition of "hate speech", leading to controversy like the reform of Section 5 (UK). This is a practical issue, not a religious one - citizens simply don't like being locked up just to appease pressure groups, believe it or not. A lot of the hate they get today is the fault of their "champions" interfering with other people's lives, and is nothing to do with religion.

@Beatrixx. Cé wtf.... honey you got it twisted... when I was a kid stright people tried making me straight so many times...

Well, how about we find out what causes homosexuality, and delete that from humanity entirely. I think that would solve our homophobia issue. Racism will probably get resolved as there is more intermingling of different races. Sexism isn't getting any better until feminists start acting appropriately and constructively, not being the PC Police that they currently are. I'm confused in regards to your comment on religion, do you seriously believe that all of the major world religions are bad, or are you upset about religious discrimination between different groups. If you're upset about religious discrimination, then that will not be resolved until those who are currently discriminating against other religions stop discriminating against each other religions, and learn to love. I am a Sikh, and for centuries, our people have been oppressed by religious extremists, primarily muslims, and we have absolutely no issue with muslims, just extremist muslims who force his/her beliefs on us.

homophobia can be genetic.

@@bobosu5823 it's not genetic although it shows what kind of people you're surrounded with

da hail- you think gayness is genetic?@@bobosu5823

Which reminds me, I'm working on a paper about homophobia. Do you know any sources I can use, for reasons why people are homophobic? Religion is _all_ I got. What if the homophobe isn't religious? Then what can possibly make them condemn gay people? I need information on their point of view.

@@johnrainsman6650 What i know, are these things: a) A male homophobe could've grown up hearing one, or both of his parents, or uncles, or an aunt saying homophobic slurs, or homophobic sentences. This caused the homophobe to have more fear in talking to a male, they believe might be gay. The homophobe is a little more likely to talk to a lesbian, but not for a while in public, or certain others might assume he is openly bisexual to the lesbian. If she were bisexual, he would care less how others would view him. 2) Straight girls of color, are more afraid to daydream about a male kissing a male. So, if they are more acquainted with a boy, who they assume is gay, one or more of the girls is more likely to call him a *aggot, when they think they can get away with it.

@@johnrainsman6650 Yet, there is one video about homophobia in public school history. It is on RU-vid, & is called, Indoctrination: A History of Homophobia in Schools. Ciao.

Well actually, I mean the _very_ reason a person becomes homophobic. I can't understand their condemnation even in the slightest. A person is gay, my response: "Yeah. So?"

@@johnrainsman6650 Oh sorry, i just saw your response. I'm from America, & despite that folks have a varied view as to how someone becomes homophobic, here's how i have noticed as to how homophobia gets in root into certain folks: 1) Some folks are afraid that their nieces, or future children or nephews are more likely to have some type of bad situation, with a pedophile. 2) In the South a few boys, no matter what ethnicity, are taught a few lies, about gay and bi men. Certain folks make their boys stay away from openly gay men, or men who might've had a bi past. The main thing is, some straight people, & even some straight children allow their imagination, kinda run wild, assuming that gay folks, & suspected gay folks might wanna be pedophiles, or try to persuade certain family members, or certain folks to do gay acts. Ciao.

a phobia can also be an irrational dislike or aversion to something, not just a crippling fear.

Ever heard of xenophobia?

@@user-mo7cd9jd8v lie

​@Beatrixx. Cé ​ @Beatrixx. Cé Then the use of "ophobic" is incorrect. It is a "Mental health slur" It is offensive, I call for the media, and the gay community to stop using the mental slur "o-phobic" which is loosely attached to everything now. Practice what you preach.

Thank you for being rational, have a great life :D

I like what you stated, but I think it’s important to fight against those who think this is moral issue. One’s sexual orientation has nothing to do with morals; it is neither moral or immoral. I wouldn’t want to sit by and allow bigots to hold such ridiculous “opinions”. And our sexuality isn’t a matter of opinion, either.

simply put, it's just who you love happens to be the same gender as you ┐(￣ー￣)┌

And I disgust you the most

The gays aren't even affecting you in anyway possible

You don't even know what phobia means lmao

When you have people literally advocating for homosexuality to become illegal, homosexual ppl to not be shown on tv, and businesses to be able to discriminate against homosexuals you realize it is in fact a fear. Homophobes arent necessarily scared of gay people, they’re scared of society becoming less and less hateful of them.

Finally, some intellectual contributions to the discussion in the comments.

I'm gonna have to kindly disagree with your opinions, please delete this comment for it has messed up my mental health, and I will press charges.

sus

People try defy reilgion but if its so stupid then why do most people of the world believe in it and why are we based off of it without religion this world would be fucked up dont say religious people are bad they make the good in the world and when a bad person like the king of saudi arabia people think hes muslim but hes not they are people with satan who think they are religious Religion makes the good in the world without it we would have greedy people ruling the world like we already do because of athiesm billionaires The bad people with a religion just think they have a religion you don’t understand

@@BingQiLing. there is no such thing as a good or bad person.. Everyone is capable of doing good or bad.. You seem to be suffering from religious Stockholm syndrome!!

@@BingQiLing. Religion have been the cause for stealing, pillaging, genocide, and a multitude of other despicable atrocities, many still being committed by extremist groups today. The most peaceful nations in the world are some of the least religious, interesting correlation.

Your gonna be fighting for eternity then.

Idk Atheist Stalin criminalized homosexuality in Soviet Russia

America and western europe is f uck ed up

You can find that between literally any debate of clashing ideals ever, I'm sorry ignorance was fought with more ignorance

yeah but homosexuality does make sense in an evolutionary sense, as those who can't reproduce would still be contributing to those that can - and in some way could actually improve the likelihood of children surviving who then go on to reproduce

Being gay isn't a physical trait. Also, how many people are hating on sterile people?

its pervert against decent

lol no one gives a shit

So can I be phobic to your religion?

Muhammad Rizkillah nowhere does it say in evolution that advantage explains everything. If anything it posits the variety of life is what’s required for a rich experience.

@mr dangerous you're comparing early human development to modern society, we could all be gay and still have children with modern science. So that is invalid

There is a ted talk on the evolutionary advantage of homosexuality. It's for the survival of the family. If the mother is stressed its suppose to trigger something in her uterus and influence the male liking gene when the fetus is in the womb because she cant have another son and feed his family or something lol. And homsexual males would also be able to support the family...

@mr dangerous true, but maybe controlling overpopulation and having adoptive parents ready might be good in some cases.
