I've always suspected that "gay bashing" is usually done by men who were victimized by homosexuals as children and harbor a deep outrage because of it. They know that they have to suppress their rage because unlike an adult woman who has been raped or an adult gay who has been attacked, no one cares about them (unless their rapist was a Catholic priest), but sometimes the rage boils over and they take it out on the nearest gay man.

Not all child victims of gay rape will turn gay; some will turn angry. As more and more gay men are given access to children, not only will the number of gay men grow, but also the number of angry men who want to hurt gays. I suspect that some day this latter group will reach a critical level.
