The Irony of Hetero-Phobia

I've seen it too many times before, and now I see it on TV. Hetero-phobia. It's a good thing that it is on TV, because the reality is that it does exist. TV is only portraying reality, but as real as it is, it is still ugly, and backwards. And makes me wanna cringe. Homosexuality, Gay, Lesbian, Bi-Sexual, Queer, Trans lifestyles are alternatives lifestyles, yes, still. The underdog, but the liberated underdog. Supposedly. The lifestyle the shirks the bible and tradition, and traditional roles for women and men, and in so many ways is such a brave lifestyle. Because there is still so much homophobia. Same-sexed couples cannot walk down the street holding hands, without there always being the fear of backlash, of hate. We all know this too well. But yet when straight people, whom we automatically expect to be homophobic, come in the presence of a homosexual individual whom we automatically expect to be more accepting and kinder because of being supposedly liberated, it's like this phenomenon of human nature occurs, the liberated nature of the homosexual person disappears, this person feels compelled to remind the hetero of the phobia they the homo has experienced, and an urge to blatantly flail and promote the alternative lifestyle, reminding the straight person of the liberation they are missing. It's true, in many ways the homosexual experiences a lot of the freedoms the heteros cannot, freedom from society's rules, whereas the hetero has freedoms the homosexual does not, marriage, walking down the street holding hands without the fear of fear. The heterosexual does not need to flaunt the freedom that everyone knows is theirs, whereas the homosexual has so much joy he/she wants to share with the rest of the world, but it comes across as hetero-phobia.

When in reality:
where is the liberation in the hetero-phobia?

The homosexual has had to learn to live with discrimination. Discrimination is suffering, depleting self esteem, the ego takes over and lashes out: hetero-phobia. Anger at the hetero-sexual world, where most homosexuals feel many heterosexuals are living a lie. If they would just come out, homophobia would slowly become erased. Eradicated into the past. Slowly. But, I am here to remind that hetero-phobia is not necesarily the answer. Befriend the opponent, join forces and unite, forget your self esteem, your ego and educate don't eliminate. That's my 2 cents for the day.
