Whats A Brazillion Weave

Homophobia in Facebook

this afternoon to join my Facebook account I see in the new panel of my contacts a link to a group entitled "No to homosexuality" and a request to report to it. At first I thought I was reading "No to homophobia", and it seemed normal, but after a sharp focus with polishing the lens and I noticed that the monitor was a group of denunciation of homosexuality and not homophobia. Unfinished believe it much, I visited the link in question to see if it was a joke or something, and if it is a joke, participants are some cracks, because they seem really homophobic. Many users have reported network and site administrators to the group in question, and as I assume (I hope) that will cease to exist soon, I made a screenshot of wall, where you can read it clear both the statement of intent as some comments. I also invite Facebook users to read this and have not yet done so to report too.


Cases like this seem to show how homosexuality is still not entirely accepted in some places, though I hope not naively, that the group is a minority homophobic. I imagine that these people are quite intolerant, have little open-mindedness, perhaps a low cultural level and / or personal problems that they move to displace or project their own fears and insecurities about the gay community. However, there are curious and famous cases such as homophobic the lecturer at the University of Alicante , whose video has been circulating enough for the network, and I'm not sure how to fit. I find it equally odd that a doctor dedicated to homeopathy .
