I have nothing against gay rights. But whenever I hear this word I cringe. It's such a hackneyed attempt to borrow the authority of Greek without playing by Greek's rules. Surely there are better words: say miserotia if you desperately need the Greek roots, or just go elsewhere.
If you're not describing an irrational fear of uniformity, you shouldn't be using this word.

Miserotia wouldn't be equivalent to homophobia, they mean two different things

Are you trying to tell ME that an arbitrary sign can't change its meaning trought time and that everybody is using it wrong but you?

>change its meaning trought time
Normally I would be fine with a word changing its meaning, that's how language works. But we don't use ancient Greek prefixes and suffixes for their malleability.
