"The authors investigated the role of homosexual arousal in
exclusively heterosexual men who admitted negative affect
toward homosexual individuals.

"Participants consisted of a group of homophobic men (n = 35)
and a group of non-homophobic men (n = 29); they were assigned
to groups on the basis of their scores on the Index of Homophobia
(WW Hudson & WA Ricketts, 1980).

"The men were exposed to sexually explicit erotic stimuli
consisting of heterosexual, male homosexual, and lesbian
videotapes, and changes in penile circumference were monitored.
They also completed an Aggression Questionnaire (AH. Buss &
M Perry, 1992).

"Both groups exhibited increases in penile circumference to the
heterosexual and female homosexual videos. Only the homophobic
men showed an increase in penile erection to male homosexual
stimuli. The groups did not differ in aggression.

"Homophobia is apparently associated with homosexual arousal
that the homophobic individual is either unaware of or denies."

"Latent homosexuality can be defined as homosexual arousal which
the individual is either unaware of or denies. Psychoanalysts
use the concept of repressed or latent homosexuality to explain
the emotional malaise and irrational attitudes displayed by some
individuals who feel guilty about their erotic interests and
struggle to deny and repress homosexual impulses. When placed
in a situation that threatens to excite their own unwanted
homosexual thoughts, they overreact with panic or anger.

"Anxiety about homosexuality typically does not occur in
individuals who are same-sex oriented, but it usually involves
individuals who are ostensibly heterosexual and have difficulty
integrating their homosexual feelings or activity."
