I mean, don't they have dictionaries?

I believe it is called lexicaphobia--the fear of having sex with your own words...<g>

Talking of homophobes. I was listening to a doctor on the radio yesterday. He said that in an experiment where men were shown pictures of homosexual men in, let's say, amorous positions, the people who said they were homophobes had an increase in measurable sexual excitement i.e. increased blood flow to the penis. So, that points to homophobia being a result of repressed homosexual feelings. Just my 2 cents for this morning :-)
