Do you often think that people who make gay jokes are uncomfortable with their own sexuality and therefore probably gay?
Yes. Some people are homophobic and uncomfortable with gay people because they are either suppressing their own sexuality or are insecure about their own masculinity. A University of Georgia study has shown that some homophobic men behave that way because they are sexually aroused by other men. A Cornell University study found that men who are homophobic are overcompensating due to their own insecurities about their own masculinity.
