Series 2, Episode 21

Today the boys have another special guest Federico Barbarossa who is hoping to make a documentary on Homophobia especially in the popular seaside town of Brighton England.

Using his personal experiences Federico is hoping to pitch his documentary to mainstream TV here in the UK, having already recorded many interviews with friends, special guest and local business owners.

We address today Homophobia in Brighton and generally in our communities and are surprised how this seems to be on the increase mainly down to social media.

What is the official definition of homophobia?

The homophobia definition is the fear, hatred, discomfort with, or mistrust of people who are lesbian, gay, or bisexual.

Homophobia, like most phobias, is distinguished by an irrational fear of gay people or gay behavior. Gays have fought long and hard for the rights we have had recognised under our Constitution...but make no mistake about it.... homophobia and anti-gay attitudes are alive and well across our land and around the world.

Coined by George Weinberg, a psychologist, in the 1960s, the term homophobia is a blend of (1) the word homosexual, itself a mix of neo-classical morphemes, and (2) phobia from the Greek φόβος, phóbos, meaning "fear", "morbid fear" or "aversion". Weinberg is credited as the first person to have used the term in speech.
