If we had real homophobic ments on this fom, that's another issue, but nothg like that here. Spa Flow wrote:As far as sayg I'm sually or more homophobic bee I ask the qutn, I say, you are ad wrong.

I didn't say that you or anyone else was sually homophobic. I'm sayg makg a difference between of one pop star agast another based their sexualy is sually homophobic. I don't re if you're homophobic or not and you probably aren't.

CHRIS LOWELL’S WIFE, NET WORTH, HEIGHT, GIRLIEND. IS HE GAY?

If somebody asked me if I was Gay I'd say no, no problem, If they asked me if I was straight then I'd say y, no problem. Very strange attu's that I don't unrstand, maybe that's why we still have a problem wh homophobia is certa walk's of life!
