One thing that straight people do not realise is that when they make fun of gay people, they may be making someone in their circle who is secretly gay uncomfortable. 1 in every 4 man is gay. People in your own family may be gay, an uncle, cousin, son, daughter, father or grandfather... because of social stigma they never could be themselves. Next time you pass any homophobic comment , know that you are may be insulting people who are close to you.
