“I don't call it queerphobia, just like I don't call it transphobia or Islamophobia. To call anti-queer bigotry or anti-trans hatred or anti-Muslim racism a phobia is to grant that kind of ugliness some measure of validity by implying that there is something to be afraid of. A phobia is a phobia because there is an irrational degree of fear behind it, which presupposes that there is something to fear, and, there, the person with the phobia deserves a degree of compassion and understanding. I don't stand for that. Call it what it is: hate. Hate that leads to and calls for violence. Hate that has consequences for people, for real human beings and their lives.”
