May I ask what you exactly mean with your reference to homophobia? I'm genuinely curious bc I think I haven't encountered this argument yet

People are not afraid of homosexs, but people are afraid of radiation. Some people dislike homosexs of course.

We don't call people who dislike nazis or communists for naziphobes or communiphobes.

Oh okay! So you have objections against the phobia part bc you don't think it's about fear.

Yes. Just use words normally: people who dislike gays I call "anti-gay". Never met anyone who was afraid of gays.

History of the term has 'fear of being seen as gay' and 'fear of contagion', probably because of the disgust emotion. I think those exist.

Yes, makes more sense for that meaning.
