Homophobia may be an instance of the so called ''behavioral immune system'', referring to behavioral adaptations such as ''disgust'' for avoiding infectious disease.<ref>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6562335/</ref><ref>https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/pdf/10.1098/rstb.2010.0117</ref> As evidenced in the [[#Statistics|statistics]] section, the excessively promiscuous, fast LH lifestyle of some male homosexuals is a major vector for sexually transmitted infectious diseases, especially since most androphile men are in fact bisexuals, meaning they potentially spread disease ob through heterosexual activity. That may explain why people of either sex may have disgust adaptations against male homosexuals and also why this disgust is higher in fast LH ecologies such as Africa and South Asia. | Homophobia may be an instance of the so called ''behavioral immune system'', referring to behavioral adaptations such as ''disgust'' for avoiding infectious disease.<ref>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6562335/</ref><ref>https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/pdf/10.1098/rstb.2010.0117</ref> As evidenced in the [[#Statistics|statistics]] section, the excessively promiscuous, fast LH lifestyle of some male homosexuals is a major vector for sexually transmitted infectious diseases, especially since most androphile men are in fact bisexuals, meaning they potentially spread disease ob through heterosexual activity.
