I'm kind of the opposite, too, like jadine -- it's because I'm a fairly tidy person that I notice and get frustrated by messy roommates.
I have a really gruesome theory about anti-homosexuality (I thought I'd told you about it.) I think many men think of themselves as potential rapists and meeting someone who is homosexual makes them feel like potential rape victims instead, hence the furious, violent anger directed against male homosexuality that is not directed against female homosexuality. (there are many, many, many other factors but this is one I haven't seen discussed elsewhere.)
