This has been known for a long time, but now there is proof.

It is commonly true that those most opposed to gay rights, are those with
repressed homosexual urges. Well, surprise, surprise, there is scientific
proof that is exactly the case.
An an article in Scientific American shows that of two groups of
self-reported heterosexual males (one being homophobic and one
non-homophobic), the homophobic group showed a good deal of sexual reponse
on a penile plethysmograph that measured their sexual stimulation to three
different kinds of pornography.
By the way, the homophobic and non-homophobic criteria were based on
answers to a questionnaire. The pornography was male/female, lesbian and
male/male. The non-homophobic and homophobic were both stimulated strongly
by the first two groups, but the non-homophobic were only slightly
stimulated according to the meters, by the gay male porn.
Well, the homophobic group was though, pretty excited by the gay male
pornography. In fact, 80% of the homophobic group showed a moderate to
definite response to this pornograpy v. 34% for the non-homophobic group.
That is an overwhelming difference in reaction between the two groups.
In a second study, homophobic males in a type of game, delivered longer and
more intense shocks to individuals they believed were gay males v the shock
that non-homophobic males gave to gay males. Both homophobic and
non-homophobic males delivered the same type and range of shocks to what
they believed were heterosexual males.
There was of course, no actual males, gay or not, being shocked. This was
after viewing gay pornography. Obviously the gay pornography set off anger
and emotional trauma in the repressed, homophobic males.
