A gay friend of mine told me that's it's always the hardcore homophobes who are doing it "on the down-low." Thinking about it more, he's probably right. There's certainly enough anecdotal evidence in the news to back him up, like the preacher caught with a male prostitute recently. This bully is probably very concerned that he has gay tendencies himself and, to hide his insecurity on the matter, he lashes out at others. In my opinion, you can't win with people like this. You just have to ignore them and go about your life being grateful that you don't have that same sort of baggage to carry around. I'd just make it a point to avoid any confrontation with him and go about your business.
