re: What to do: college roommate is gay

Because people shouldn't be forced to live in a condition they're not comfortable in.

Really? What if he was uncomfortable because the roommate was black? That would be venturing dangerously back towards segregation.

As for the OP, tell your homophobic son two things:

First, life is not always going to cater to his likes and dislikes and one of the best skills he will ever learn is to be able to make the best of an uncomfortable situation.

Second, gay men attract straight women like an Alabama Wal-Mart attracks rednecks. Women always want what the can't have, and a gay man provides connection but leaves them hanging for the D. If your son becomes his wingman, he could be in a position to slay loads of poon.
