Pretty often lately I'm finding homophobia raising it's ugly head and this is not a head I like to see raised.
"I've no problem with gays themselves but I don't like what they do" is heard often; even in polite company.
Yeats' line "how do you tell the dancer from the dance?" come to mind.
But for some reason, that borders on the visceral, what gets to me most is the simple remark "what they do is unhygienic"
