2x2 chart, the top panels are labeled “Knows they’re homophic”, the bottom panels are labeled “Doesn’t know they’re homophobic”, the left panels are labeled “Doesn’t care” and the right panels are labeled “Cares”. The top-left panel says “[There is no record of this comment]”, the top-right panel says “Gay people make me uncomfortable and I should work on that”, the bottom-left panel says “HOW IS THAT HOMOPHOBIC?!” and the bottom-right panel says “That’s homophobic? I’m sorry, I’ll do better next time!”

(btw is there a better way to word that transcript?)

Was talking about homophobia with someone yesterday and saw this chart in my mind and I thought u guys would like it :3 I know this applies to many things outside of sexuality/gender/etc and even outside of hate so maybe I should have made it more general :p But whatevs, feel free to edit and repost, it’s just lines and text X3

  • tru dat :< but I actually was friends with one of the upper-right type and he was such a great guy! :D He even dated a trans woman (before u ask, not me X3) and they broke up just cuz they were simply not campatible, he always refered to her as a woman and wasn’t ashamed to say he had a relationship with a trans girl :3

      It sort of sounds like he was more like lower right, unless you weren’t using ‘gay people’ as a general euphemism for people who are LGBT+, in which case, I guess your friend might fit.

      • yeye I said in the post’s text that this aplies to many other things :p My friend’s main problem was that men acting or dressing femininely made him super uncomfortable which includes some gay people but he also used to struggle trying to see a trans woman as a woman, so it’s great that he improved on that aspect :3
