BTW, this is not the only time this study has been done.
The result is always the same.
Homophobes are closeted, or at least in violent denial about their homosexual urges.
You have to ask, why would one CARE what another does and feels when it has no affect on them?
The answer is simple, they are affected because they are attracted.
It is the only answer we now know.

Psychoanalytic theory holds that homophobia --the fear, anxiety, anger, discomfort and aversion that some ostensibly heterosexual people hold for gay individuals -- is the result of repressed homosexual urges that the person is either unaware of or denies. A study appearing in the August issue of the Journal of Abnormal Psychology, published by the American Psychological Association (APA), provides new empirical evidence that is consistent with that theory.
