Continents is a human made construct that's later rationalized with tectonic plates and other criteria. Basically, people around the Mediterranean Sea divided the Mediterranean Coast into 3 parts and later extended this concept.
If still not sure if you're saying this is a homophobic joke or a joke about homophobia. If I understand you correctly, the joke is that the gays are so stupid, they didn't realize they want a same sex partner until the light ball told them?
