However, on an individual level, I think the average 'phobe sees homosexuality and bisexuality as something "sick" and "abnormal" and therefore, disgusting and evil. It's a prejudice entwined with an inculcated "gut" reaction.

There's not often a reflexive thought about patriarchy or ownership of another human being. Rather, its pure habit driven hate and discomfort.

The macroscopic perspective comes into play politically, institutionally, and in more collective level reactions.
