What still baffles me is the total and complete ignorance about it and basic understanding of human biology. How many people think that homosexuality is a choice. I am heterosexual and I did not spend some days while I was a prepubescent teen looking at porn or whatever and then going "mh, let's say that for now I like girls, not sure, maybe I'm gonna change my mind". Liking girls was the most natural thing for me.
At the same time, if a person is attracted by a person of the same sex, that's not a choice or an act or rebellion, it's what they are and feel. It's mind boggling how people still don't get it. I don't even remember how I learnt about gay people - at a certain time I realized and accepted that some people liked people of the same sex. How people can fixate so hard on something is disheartening to say the least.
Just yesterday I saw an online episode of an italian journalist that has in depths reportages about towns, first I watched the episode of my town, and then one about London. He touched upon a number of subjects and persons and one of them was Alan Turing, and once again I was reminded of how this genius, father of the modern computers as we know them, cracked the Enigma code and helped to win World War II. Estimates are that he saved England two years of war, and 14 millions of lives. What was his reward? chemical castration because he was homosexual, which led him to commit suicide. It's infuriating every time I think of that.
I would like to deprive homophobic people of all the contributions of gay people to the world. Forbid them to listen to music made by gay people, to read books written by them, to watch movies where gay people worked. Even take away their computers because Alan Turing is basically one of the fathers of modern informatic system. Force them to live without any contribution, be it political, social, scientific or artistic, from gay people, see how it goes.
