By Lee Yun-yueh 李昀岳“Rainbow crossers” are playing with their own most feared idea: the fluidity of gender and sexual orientation. A homosexual person could of course also become a homophobe. There is no question that the rainbow crossers’ arguments and behavior are homophobic: They fear the lives of homosexual people and their own lives as homosexual individuals, and they also fear their desire for people of the same sex. And what do rainbow crossers think about bisexual people? When rainbow crossers say that it is better to be heterosexual than homosexual, they are using society’s deepest, but also gentlest and perhaps most sincere disgust of homosexual people, draped in a cloak of kindness.
