Currently it's

Discrimination against gay men, sometimes called gayphobia, is a form of homophobic prejudice, hatred, or bias specifically directed toward gay men, male homosexuality, or men who are perceived to be gay.

That's suboptimal because discrimination is not the same thing as "prejudice, hatred, or bias". The one involves actions, while the other three involve thoughts or sentiments. I can't think of any good alternatives, though. Gay men, or men who are perceived to be gay, may experience homophobic prejudice or discrimination...? Discrimination or prejudice against gay men, or men who are perceived to be gay, is sometimes called gayphobia...? Discrimination against gay men, or men who are perceived to be gay, may be motivated by homophobic prejudice, hatred, or bias...? gnu57 00:44, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
