Most noteworthy for me is the fact that more Americans think that porn (52%) and homosexuality (39%) are wrong than spanking children (23%) and being ultra wealthy (18%).

Actually, it's the other way around. Gayness (the sexuality) doesn't cause homophobia. Being homophobic causes you to have a fetish for gay stuff. These homophobic politicians being caught on grindr aren't actually gay, they weren't born gay. The fact that they see sex with men as wrong caused them to want it. They're in it for the taboo.

That sounds too specific IMHO. I would say they're born gay, but the people they surround themselves with say "gay is bad", so they're ashamed to come out. And to not be "caught" they fight it very loudly, so everyone can see how not gay the, are. Because only super straight guys fight the bad evil gays.

Fuck a dude just because it's forbidden? Unless you're somehow into guys, this would still be pretty meh.

All sex is pretty meh for conservatives. At least the men they fuck are having fun. It's more pleasurable to fuck someone who likes your cock than someone who's disgusted by your existence like their wives are.
