"Apparently when I was attacked in Boston it was a 'gay bashing' (which is kind of ironic seeing as I'm straight)," said Moby.
"I've asked this question before, but what in the world do people find so offensive about homosexuality-
"Why can't we all just agree to let adults enjoy sex and love in whatever consensual way they see fit-"
Moby also compared homophobia to racism and anti-semitism, asking, "Why are homophobia and misogyny (hatred of women as a cultural group) so much more culturally acceptable than racism and anti-Semitism-
"So many people turn a blind or encouraging eye to homophobia and misogyny while decrying the evils of racism and anti-Semitism," he added.
"To hate a black person because of their ethnicity is just as offensive as hating a woman for her gender and is just as offensive as hating a gay person for their sexual orientation.
Disgusting prejudice is disgusting prejudice is disgusting prejudice."
