![“[talking about word "homophobia":] I myself don´t like "gays" - and let me stress that I don't consider that word a synonym for "homosexual" - in the same way that I don't like Communists and Feminists as advocates of a harmful and stupid ideology. But have no fear of them.” quote by Rafal A. Ziemkiewicz](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/525/rafal-a-ziemkiewicz-78523_communist_talking-about-word-homophobia-i-myself-d_2053792.jpg)
