My understanding is that "homophobic" means fear or hatred towards gays or lesbians.
I do not think most republicans think like that.
I don't have anything against gays or lesbians and would be voting democratic if I was an American however;
Do I agree with gays or lesbians getting married as in the same way as a man or woman: hmmm I'm not quite sure really and if I had to choose probably not, not in a Christian religious ceremony anyway. I doesn't quite make sense to me.
Do I agree with gay couples adopting children? Probably not, certainly not since it is damn hard for a hetero sexual couple to even be considered for adoption. It's almost akin to positive discrimination allowing people such as Elton John such an easy route to doing that. All celebrities I think seem to be able to almost "buy" children in fact. But I certainly don't think gay couples raising children is the most natural thing in the world.
I doubt this really makes me a complete homophobe more balanced I would have thought, but I'm sure many people will disagree.
