Homophobes have big "Stop having fun!" Energy.

There are 3 types of people in this world when it comes to gender and sexual identity

Homophobes(and other equivalents)

People in the LGBT community

Straight people

Homophobes are literally gay people in denial! Straight people would just go on with their day

Can we really stop with the "homophobes are gay in denial"

Yes, there's an amount of self hating gays out there, but to say every homophobe out there is gay is fucking stupid

Homophobic men were more aroused than straight men when shown gay porn.

It doesn’t mean all homophobes are gay (even straight men were turned on by gay porn) but it does beg the question: why do homophobes get a bigger boner over gay porn than straight men?

I'd say there's two groups of primary homophobes: People who are themselves gay, and people with overactive disgust circuitry -- "If I (personally) am disgusted then it's wrong for everyone". The third group would be people simply following social impulse but that's also the case for the gay ones, doubling down on homophobia to make sure they're still accepted, thereby driving the whole thing in the first place.

I'm on break at work, so I don't really have to to get past the abstract but.

Only the homophobic men showed an increase in penile erection to male homosexual stimuli.

I feel like it's a big assumption to conclude homosexual desire from this. Like sure, I can understand why you would, but I've definitely gotten erections from stimulus I didn't find sexually arousing, especially if they illicited some other strong response.

Pre-transituon I used to get rage-boners, sad-boners even disgust-boners. Estrogen has mostly eradicated unexpected erections for me, but that isn't really a factor here.

What. I get horny boners, and night boners. During puberty I got random boners. It might be that trans brains don't (always) come with the control circuitry that the external hardware expects and it's getting confused, it certainly doesn't sound like ordinary cismale boner patterns.

Can confirm, I'm straight and I don't give a shit who other people are interested in
