encountering homophobes
I was recently called by a gay friend a "fag stag" or someone who is straight that has loads of gay friends. fair enough. i probably do, but i don't think of it like that.
however, a recent email from one of those people that's more than a colleague but not a friend seemed to suggest that they are against homosexuality. don't ask how it came up... but it just did. anyway.
how do you deal with it, assuming you are okay with homosexuality... do you just ignore it? or confront it?
