Homophobia, Hetero-phobia, Tolerance-phobia
A few days ago, the government of Mexico's Capital City, approved a city-local law that approved gay marriage.
This government have previously recognized the union in life of gay couples via a legal term called "sociedad de convivencia" but that give less rights.
Immediately after the approval of the law, there were tons of reactions, but the majority were against it. Mostly based on beliefs, religious pressure, stereotypes and baseless fears the controversy grow, and soon moved from critics, to a plain attack. It has become the answer guided by homophobia.
And that attack caused that many LGBT groups decided to respond to the so called attack, the problem was that in most of them the defense was so similar on the attacks, with lacks of arguments, and more in a position of "if you dont agree then you are wrong", and from there moved into intolerance to all those that were not with them. It became a case of hetero-phobia.
It seems even hen a few people try to give a few steps on the right path, the problem in Mexico is still, that almost everyone looks at anyone that is different as being wrong, it is now an age of phobia for tolerance.
