Have you actually met a male who feared being raped, outside of someone 
prison bound?

I'm assuming the first 3 are somewhat serious but why would #1) fear of 
being one; make one feel threatened? What is so threatening about an 
attraction towards someone of the same sex?

Maybe homophobes don't feel threatened? Maybe homophobe is the wrong 
word. Those who dislike queers may not fear or feel threatened by them. 
They may hate for another reason. Do all racists dislike "others" 
because they feel threatened? Some do but I don't think that explains 
all and I think the assumption that queer haters feel threatened may be 
incorrect for a great number of people.

What happened to #6)?
