It’s based on who you experience as perpetrators of homophobic attacks. I’m bi myself and have plenty non straight friends. The numbers of homophobic attacks by Arabs and Turks dwarfs those by others. This is from our own personal painful experience.

The last time I had to run from a group of Arabs on a weekend night was two months ago.

This isn’t new, but has been a trend for years.
