I used to think my dad was homophobic, because while he was indifferent to "what other people do in their own bedrooms," he did insist that it was a fact that the vast majority of gay male relationships were not monogamous, and he could not respect that aspect of it. I argued furiously with him about this as a teenager, that he was buying into propaganda and anti-gay rhetoric.

And then I went to college and met a huge variety of gay men, keeping in touch with them over the years and being introduced to even more gay men through them... and found out he was actually right after all. I feel bad now, for being so sure my father was a hoodwinked fool.
