The term “safe space” originates in LGBT communities and designates a place where homophobia isn’t tolerated.

The argument usually goes that safe spaces keep people from encountering ideas they disagree with, that they have an infantilizing and silencing effect.

I respond that when gay people are so sheltered that they have no idea what homophobia is, well, then I’ll admit that maybe things have gone a bit too far.

In the meantime, gay people not experiencing enough homophobia is not really striking me as a pressing social issue.
