homofobi

Græsk: Sygelig eller politisk og religiøst begrundet angst, frygt, skræk og eller dermed foragt og intolerance over for homoseksualitet eller homofile.
Bifobi er irrationel frygt og intolerance overfor biseksuelle.
Homofobi har formodentlig eksisteret lige så længe der har været homoseksuelle.
Siden oldtiden har homofobi været kendt i de fra Mellemøsten baserede fundamentalistiske religioner og senere i vestens kolonialisme.
