I thought Tower's catch 22 was dead on, by the way...

Right, he didn't say anything about that, but i've gathered that some of the prejudice and violence and hate came from people who were secretly gay and didn't want to be. I mean, that's just common knowledge. Also, that kind of fear makes sense to me, was my point. I mean, not "sense" as in it's right, but, a reason that would make someone SO anti gay. But I really don't understand other people's fear, people that aren't secretly gay...as in, what are they so threatened by, you know? Like, they're not gay, and someone else is. So what? I just don't understand how people who aren't "threatened" in any way care so much...
