Homophobia can get downright silly. Silly is such a lighthearted word for something as disgusting as homophobia, but it's true. I know of some guys who won't even wipe their butt well because they think it's gay to touch themselves there. I'm not saying you need to paint a rainbow on your face and march at Pride festival, but not wiping seems like a bit much, doesn't it?
In this case we see the president of Russia, Vladmir Putin. He's a known homophobe so clearly he wouldn't want his bobsledding team to be behind each other. Everyone knows that being behind another man makes you gay. *rolls eyes*. I would love to see how a bobsled like that does, though. I'm thinking it ends in a crash, which could be cool. Bobsledding could be the new Nascar.
