Study: Homophobic individuals more likely to be closet homosexuals.

Can't say these results are surprising:

Homophobes Might Be Secretly Attracted To People Of The Same Sex - International Business Times

Researchers found that homophobic people are actually attracted to the same sex. They claim that these individuals risk losing the love and approval of their parents if they admit to same sex attractions, so many people deny or repress that part of them.

"In a predominately heterosexual society, 'know thyself' can be a challenge for many gay individuals. But in controlling and homophobic homes, embracing a minority sexual orientation can be terrifying," said Weinstein.

The research also sheds light on high profile cases in which anti-gay public figures are caught engaging in same-sex sexual acts. The authors write that this dynamic of inner conflict may be reflected in such examples as Ted Haggard, the evangelical preacher who opposed gay marriage but was exposed in a gay sex scandal in 2006, and Glenn Murphy, Jr, former chairman of the Young Republican National Federation and vocal opponent of gay marriage, who was accused of sexually assaulting a 22-year-old man in 2007.

"This study shows that if you are feeling that kind of visceral reaction to an out-group, ask yourself, 'Why?'" says William Ryan, professor at the University of California in Santa Barbara. "Those intense emotions should serve as a call to self-reflection."

Discuss.

What about people who take time out of their day to not only read about this study, but start a thread about the study?

Look in a mirror lately?

Not at all. I fail to see any importance in either the results or the idiocy of spending money to study something so irrelevant. It ranks up there with the govt spending money to study shrimp on a treadmill. All the money that's wasted on this kind of nonsense could feed or cloth a lot of poor children or help find a cure for some disease.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Apparently, some people felt it was in fact important enough to warrant a study.

Probably, I would guess, the same people that are being denied basic individual rights partially as a result of said homophobia.

And since there are quite a few studies that were done to garner data that would support... The Defense of Marriage Act, for example, it would only be logical to do a study examining the motives of the people that want to put DOMA in place.

So you feel that the people supposedly being suppressed can conduct a survey that could possibly benefit them in some way and you openly accept the results? Not only that you have expressed your desire to utilize these results as a weapon against your opposition if the disagree with you.

Got it....... Unsubscribed

Since Joe hates Mormons and Jews, does this mean he wants to be a Later Day Semitic? Or does it mean he wants to have a threesome with a Jewish girl and a Mormon girl?

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Had a couple Jewish girls, no Mormons... yet.

Having several friends who are being denied their basic human rights is in fact an excellent motivator to speak out on the subject.

I'm sure anyone can agree with that.

If you feel that this makes me more likely to be gay, I'm really not troubled by it in the least.

I'm quite comfortable with my masculinity, and so if my lovely wife, so, go ahead, feel free.

I presented said study, and await evidence to the contrary.

That is not the same as "accepting the results".

I have evidence that points in one direction, and no evidence to contradict it.

Thus, the thread.

Not good or bad, just trying to figure out the rules.

Homophobia is entirely political because it's been made political from centuries of oppression of homosexuals through political channels. Even today, it remains a big problem.

Bull shit. It's health and lifestyle.

Not to mention this article is nothing more than a homo hack piece asuming those who don't think homos are all warm and fuzzy must be closet homos themselves. What a total load of horse shit. The old SWITCHEROO.... "if you don't like homos, then you must be one"... stupid beyond comprehension. The lengths to which the homo community won't go through to silence anyone who voices opposition to their perversion. It's just as disgusting as their illness.

The irony of it all is they want to convince people that there is nothing wrong with homosexual behavior while at the same time using homosexuality as a derrogatory term against their opponents. Their means and ends totally contradict. Quite frankly I dont think they really care about "equality" for homosexuals. It's just another weapon they can use to divide and attack people.

Personally, I dont think calling people gay is a very effect insult because I dont think it's insulting. They can accuse me of such behavior all day, but if it's not true, why on earth would I let it upset me? And if it was true, why would I take it as an insult?

Either way, they end up wasting their time with childish antics. Says much more about what they think than what I do.

That is exactly it. If they can't beat you down while your hetero, then by damn they'll turn the tables and call you HOMO ... even though they've been advocating homosexuality is a GOOD thing, now YOU are supposed to be ASHAMED? ...

It's a fucking joke. I guess some people just have no sense of diginity or conscience. They don't know and they don't care just how STUPID they look to other people. Typical liberals.

And you people say my threads are stupid. LOL

I do not see the connection myself.......................................those that dislike gay Americans may do so for many reasons, all WRONG.

I don't believe that people who disagree with a bunch of perverts are wrong.

That's entirely untrue.

Since some of the most prominent political figures on the right (i.e. Rick Santorum) clearly hate homosexuality in general, and base future policy decisions on their hatred of homosexuality, it is clearly a political issue.



Besides some personal bullshit, do you have any scientific data that contradicts the claims made in this study?

Because, if you don't, then you are clearly talking out of your ass.

LOL, what study? You mean this homosexual hack piece. You cannot possibly think that it holds anything of value.

This "Study" is a lie and pursue to besmear all those who are against Sodomy.

I agree, the study seems dubious to me as well. Clearly anyone who's obsessed with what consenting adults do in the privacy of their own bedroom has major issues, but not necessarily homosexuality. They are probably massively anal though, that is probably what confused the researchers. They wanted to stick things in their asses, just not necessarily someone else's dick. You know, you for instance. I doubt you're gay, just an anal busy body who has to have an opinion on things that have nothing to do with you, which would be fine except for your insistence on telling us your opinion we don't care about.

Certainly not, but your comparison is flawed.

In this situation, Joe is a Jew, in a society where a good percentage of the population hates Jews, (let's say Nazi Germany) and Joe was pretending NOT to be a Jew so he could fit in.

Only, in this case, Joe's own parents also hate Jews.

Yes, you caught us Pale Rider.

We are obviously trying to make people ashamed that they are homosexual.

It has nothing to do with all that hypocrisy.

Oh, well, I guess that's it, my fellow gay-bashers.... Better throw in the towel... We've been outted.

Which is possibly why, according to the study, the poster was so eager to write this:

The rest of the post is quite funny.

Bigfoot is a flaming faggot. He watches gay porn by night and goes gay bashing by day. He obviously was one of the people the study was referring to.

That was the lead in to the joke. I was sounding like I agreed with them, then didn't.
