Definitions and meanings of "Homophiles"
What do we mean by homophiles?
A homosexual, a gay man or lesbian, one who has a sexual or romantic preference for persons of the same gender; used to emphasize love over sex.
A person who romanticizes or fetishizes homosexual relationship/couples/or romances. The person doesn't necessarily have to be homosexual themselves, on the contrary they tend to be heterosexuals that enjoy relationships between people of the opposite gender. Urban Dictionary
One who is obsessed with gaydom and is the complete antithesis of a homophobic person. Origin: In biology, the suffix "philic" is used to describe attraction. For instance, something that is hydrophilic is attracted to water (while something that is hydrophobic is repelled by water.) Urban Dictionary
A heterosexual person who has an obsessive fascination with all things homosexual. Urban Dictionary
Homophile is a word widely used by those with same-sex attraction while the term homosexual was still used by psychiatrists and other mental health professionals in the diagnosis of these attractions as a mental disorder. It was widely held by the homophile community that the term homosexual over emphasized the physical aspects of a same-sex relationship and that homophile, -phile coming from the Greek word for love, drew a more accurate picture by having the emphasis on the emotional aspects of such a relationship. With the DSM no longer considering homosexuality as a disorder and the popularization of the word pedophile (meaning one who has sexual attraction to children), the term homosexual has become far more commonly used where the term homophile is rarely, if ever, used at all. Well known homophile groups include Harry Hay's "The Mattachine Society" for gay men and the unaffiliated "Daughters of Bilitis" for lesbians. Urban Dictionary
A heterosexual who has an attraction to homosexuals. Urban Dictionary
Someone who bends over backwards to advance any gay agenda item or position, no matter how outlandish. Someone with an unnatural attraction to all things "Gay" Urban Dictionary
Just like a homophobe is a straight person who hates, dislikes, or is afraid of homosexuals, a homophile is a straight person who loves homosexuals and would fight for their rights. Sometimes these straight people may be confused with homosexuals since they participate in gay pride events and sometimes even attack homophobes. Depending on the person who uses it, a homophile may be an annoying ultra liberal who complains for gays. Or it may simply be a regular person who does not have anything against gays. Normally its the first one since no body likes to be called a homophobe, and nobody likes to be called a homophile. Homophobes and homophiles can be both be assholes, as one group hates a group of people just for being gay. The other group hares a group of people who simply do not want to be gay. Urban Dictionary
An asshole who believes that human beings were meant to be homosexual, that nature intented it that way, and spends his/her time kissing homosexual's asses on message boards. Urban Dictionary
When a man likes men but isn't gay. Urban Dictionary
A homosexual person with an obsession with looking at gay pornography. Homophiles are generally very over-sexual and make it very apparent that they're gay. From Norwegian "Homofile" meaning "gay". Urban Dictionary
