Some argue that some or most people who are homophobic have repressed their own homosexuality, but this argument is somewhat controversial. In 1996, a controlled study of 64 heterosexual men (half claimed to be homophobic by experience and self-reported orientation) at the University of Georgia found that men who were found to be homophobic (as measured by the Index of Homophobia)[31] were considerably more likely to experience more erectile responses when exposed to homoerotic images than non-homophobic men.[32]

Now, I think this argument is clarified by the result of the study. In other words, homophobes get hot while watching homoerotic activities and thus they unconsciously desire it but repress it for several, severe reasons. Period.
