Despite the meaning and derivation of the word,
homophobia as it is used in American pop-culture at the present means someone who is not tolerant of a homosexual lifestyle. If someone makes a politically incorrect joke about a "gay guy" he is homophobic, if someone commits a hate crime toward a gay or lesbian individual they are homophobic. Does that mean they have a fear of these people... I would suggest it is slightly different then a traditional "phobia".
thats my oppinion
I may be wrong
