Why are Japanese people homophobic?

Question:

As far as I know, same-sex relationships are not recognized by the government and flaunting your orientation openly is still a taboo in Japan. But the thing I do not understand is the reason. People of Abrahamic religions are against it worldwide. For example, people against same-sex relationships in the US are generally conservative Christians, and are so due to their religious beliefs. So, I can understand why they are against it, but what about Japanese people?

Answer:

Japanese people want everyone in their society to think and act the same way.

They don't like something or someone different. That's why.

As we have a phrase like "A nail which sticks out will get hammered back."
