I don't see how it's even possible to "not agree with someone being gay". It's like saying you don't agree with the sun shining or the grass growing. If someone's gay, they're gay; not really anyone else's business or concern.
Homophobia is just a word created to define a general 'opposition' or dislike of gays.
If taken absolutely literally it doesn't even mean a fear of gay people, it would mean something like a fear of 'same things'. 'Homo' in homosexual is Greek (go figure), not Latin, as in 'homo sapien', where it means 'man'.
Like everyone else in this thread, and Jason Statham, I am also not the gay.
