Juju's hypothesis that people know a bit more about themselves than can be learned from objective observation of their behavior is fuzzy logic, although he might be less likely to realize this than others. ;)

I agree with the quoted material. However, we're specifically talking about how dave feels about homosexuals, and what specific meaning he ascribes to certain words. Those aren't abilities, it's how he feels. We can nearly always be certain of how we feel about certain issues (even if that feeling is indifference).
