The term "homophobia" is a derogatory term that is sometimes used to describe an aversion to homosexuality. The suffix "phobia" suggests an irrational fear. It is used by gay rights groups to suggest that all opposition to homosexuality is irrational and hateful.[1] Phobias in general are treatable, [2] and some groups say that this phobia, too, is treatable.
