text: I think you've snuck an extra question in there! :) First, yes, it is just as possible for a homosexual to be homophobic as it is for a hetrosexual to be homophobic... just sadder. Second, no, I don't think Ms. O'Donnell was justified in saying that Ms. Ripa's comment made her homophobic. I think it had nothing to do with his percieved orientation and everything to do with the fact that he is male and who knows where his hands had been and whether or not he had washed them recently? If someone put their hand over my open mouth and I hadn't personally seen them sanitize their hands within the past 30 seconds... I'd be upset too and I don't care what their orientation is!
