Hypothesize that, even though egregiously politically incorrect, a heterosexual human will prefer a homophobic mate, all other things being equal. This could be tested by some clever psychology experiment that reveals how people behave when political correctness is not a factor.
It might explain the paradoxical nature of gay bashing. The subconscious evolutionary mechanism could be homophobia signals heterosexuality and so the mate is more likely to remain faithful: 50% of the population is eliminated as people the mate might stray to. A successful actual act of gay bashing signals being physically stronger than someone of the same sex.
