I'd say that's a common reason. Also, studies have shown that gay-bashing homophobes are often found to be latent homosexuals themselves. They overcompensate and attempt to hide it by attacking gays because they're terrified of their own feelings and being exposed. Prominent gay-bashers are sometimes found in 'difficult to explain' circumstances. Here are a few names that come to mind: Mark Foley, Ted Haggard, Larry Craig - and here's a good one: Troy King, Alabama's Attorney General as well as the chairman of John McCain's Alabama Leadership Team was reportedly caught by his wife in their bed with naturally another man: King, a conservative Republican Christian who has called homosexuality the 'downfall of society,' has been caught with his pants down literally in a gay sex scandal. King was reportedly nabbed having sex with a male assistant by his wife, Paige King, in the couple's own bed. http://tinyurl.com/6jsmv8 > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "do.rflex" <do.rflex@> wrote: > > > > > > > > In my years of working for Charlie he was occasionally asked why > > people are gay.
