As noted, its a small sample size, and even in that sample size the homophobic participants exhibited “arousal” to all sexual stimuli.
I don’t think that makes someone gay.
You also have to consider the subset of self described homophobes who would consent to having a device strapped to their genitalia while they are shown gay porn…
They may not be a representative of the larger group.
wierdly how you dont think homophobic people are not gay themselves, you do realize how many people have sham marriages/relationships because they are secretely gay. if you go to any platform where gay people of experiences coming out, many of them had relationships with straight people to appear straight.
This study kind of illustrates it may be true. It’s not a huge sample size, but its difficult to deny there is at least a significant correlation.
I only need to open Grindr at a Republican convention to know for sure. Also, good luck with the servers not crashing.
That’s not what the study says??
I don’t have access to the full text, but it certainly doesn’t state most homophobes display attraction to gay porn.
It says there is a correlation. If 5% of the population is gay and 10% of homophobes are gay, then homophobia is correlated with being gay.
But stating most homophobes are gay would require evidence that >50% are gay, not just that there exists a correlation.

The key factor is that only the homophobes experienced arousal when shown gay porn.
Also, a small sample size doesn’t instantly invalidate a study.
The key factor is that it neither answers nor proves the claim. Linking it shows a failure to read even the abstract.

This is a strawman, and not what I claimed at all. Please read my comments more carefully if you wish to understand what I am saying.
