Was watching this movie the other day and was thinking to myself,
yep theres gonna be some wanker saying this movie insults lesbians.
Firstly who cares
secondly she didn't slap him she gave a him a dirty look.
Thirdly just cause someones insulted at being called gay or lesbian doesn't mean their a homophobic, maybe their just proud of being straight as gays are of being who they are, so yeh i couldnt be bothered going on
Karma police arrest this girl!

To me, homopPHOBIA in this movie would have been something like "You a lesbian? get out of my cab!"
She was probably in too much pain to snap back at him
Come to think of it MOM (Olympia Dukakis's Character)made a crack about lesbians: When told that Mollie was artifically incem., she says "This is the act of a woman who is very ugly or a lesbian this is not the act of a beautiful, intelligent girl who could have anyone she wants!"
I am surprised, OP didn't catch that.

Someone else put up a post about this movie trying to push a pro-life agenda and now we're talking about homophobia. Why are some people determined to believe there has be some hidden political agenda being pushed in every Hollywood movie? The entertainment industry is supposed to exist for the purpose of ENTERTAINMENT, not to be a role model. If people really look to movie characters and Hollywood types to be examples of good moral character and judgment, that's not what I call very smart.

There usually a political agenda associated with all forms of entertainment. It's no accident that movies that are, say, pro-gay or anti-religion, get special consideration and lots of backing in advertisement revenue. Hollywood does have an agenda and they push it hard, and subliminally, might I add. The intelligent are always wary, my friend. ALWAYS WARY

Heehee, I don't think she slapped him, she just made a (very funny) horrified face. I got the feeling that she was more appalled at the unkind word "Lesbo" than the idea of being considered one.

Just because a female gets pregnant without actually having sex (IVF-which, as a devout Catholic I believe is immoral), does NOT mean Molly is a lesbian.
I would've throttled him but good!
True it would've been better if she had sex with a husband (male). -

My sister is in the LGBT community and she thought the line was funny.
The point is that it was an inappropriate question to ask a complete stranger, not that assuming she was a lesbian was a negative issue. -

Because straight people consider it insulting to be perceived as gay. Why is that so hard to understand? Nothing homophobic about that. Would a black or white person who are mistaken for the other race be considered racist if they got insulted?
