i bet on a friend (lets call him elton) of mine being gay. i posted the money and get 3:1 if elton ever comes out of the closet. if he never does, the person i bet with forever keeps the money. elton seems homophobic way more than most people (although he has tempered it now that im around). he goes out of his way to be anti-gay like refusing to be a unicorn in a video game for no clear apparent reason. thats not real homophobia but there has to be some internalized gay resistance going on IMO, which is congruent with the study in the OP. i hope its true because it will result in me shipping some nice $$$
