I agree with Filth on this one. I don't see how that even made sense or where that person's logic was. .-.
I dealt with a lot of homophobic bullshit in school as well. I don't deal with it as often anymore because of where I live now. It's horrible some of the things people can do and then some of the things they can do are downright stupid. The best thing you can do is just ignore them and not let them get to you.
