Summary: | Affiche van een sensibiliseringscampagne tegen homofobie, uitgegeven in 1999 door Terrence Higgins Trust en Community HIV and AIDS Prevention Strategy (CHAPS).
Tekst: “My son is homophobic, but I hope it’s just a phase.” Homophobia is prejudice or discrimination against lesbians or gay men.
Most of us react with horror at the extreme cases like the bombing of a gay pub in London, but homophobia is around us every day: jokes, discrimination, insults, even refusing to accept that gay people exist. But they do exist, and it's rarely a phase. Most famiIies have a gay story to tell. What about yours? lf not, then imagine one of your own children turns out to be gay. Think, for a moment, how you would react? Would you still laugh at those anti-gay jokes if they were directed at your son or daughter?
Reject a gay son or daughter and you can end up losing them forever. Fortunately many families are strong enough to face up to issues like this and remain firmly intact. lt can often make them stronger. Remember gay or straight, young people need your love and support. They also need your guidance. Through your everyday behaviour, show them that homophobia - like other forms of prejudice - is fundamentally wrong.
lt's prejudice that's queer.
