They keep using that word... “Phobia”.

I do not thin’ it means what they thin’ it means.

What is the proper word that means “disgust”?

The latin for disgust is “taedium” or “tedium”. Or you could also use “revulsio” (revulsion).

I looked it up *(at latinwordlist.com), and the Latin word for ‘disgust’ is “Tedium” or “Taedium”.

So....’homotedium’?

I’ve decided I like “homonausea”. If you come up with a better one please PM me.

I certainly don’t fear homosexuals. My neighbors are two homosexual guys, and they’re nice guys. Helpful, polite neighbors. I neither fear them nor do they make me sick.

But they don’t kiss each other in public, don’t engage in sexual or any other touching I’ve seen, and don’t stick it in my face figuratively and certainly don’t flaunt.

It’s easy to treat them as pleasant good neighbors because I don’t have to think about their other activities - or “approve” or “celebrate” them.
