THE GAY BERLER: ACTIVELY PASSIVE

One of Pl's pots 1 Corthians 6:9 is that when a person to salvatn, time the Holy Spir leads one away om such ss as adultery, homosexualy, and other ss unto te repentance (a full and plete gift) and acknowledgg of the tth (2 Tim. Although many gay men and lbians are aware of their orientatn om their earlit sexual thoughts, a sizeable mory do not disver their orientatn until later life, perhaps a failg marriage and wh the rponsibili of parenthood.

Perhaps as many as a third of gay men choose not to practise perative anal sex on a regular basis, 1 and the tradnal divisn of gay men to “active” and “passive” is not born out by experience—most gay men who do have anal sex will play eher role.

It is therefore eful for a doctor to be forearmed wh a basic vobulary of gay sex, although many men and women who perform the activi will lack the words to scribe them, and few people of any orientatn are likely to have all the activi their personal behavural repertoire.

GAY MALE SEXUALY

Attribute gayns to choice, acrdg to a 2015 Pew Rearch Center report (see also Sheldon, Pfeffer, Jayaratne, Feldbm, & Petty, 2007), we wonred how heterosexual men might rpond to dividuals who have been victimized on the basis of sexual preferenc that they may nsir dilemmas are possible here: heterosexual men might choose to librate their passn ways that align wh the prevailg heterosexual norm, for stance, by exprsg rced ncern (even passivy) toward gay victims of hate crime. G., latent gayns) by exprsg hostily toward gay dividuals (Weste et al., 2012) suggts that, for heterosexual men, exprsg the oppose passnate feelgs for gay victims of a hate crime might ll their pliance to the heterosexual norm to qutn.

Two classic psychologil mols offer petg explanatns on how bystanr reactns uld fluence heterosexual men’s passivy or passnate reactns toward gay victims of hate crime: the bystanr mol (Darley & Latané, 1968) and the social loafg mol (Rgelmann, 1913) Bystanr MolThere is by now a nsens that bystanrs’ reactn to an emergency n terme whether others are passive or passnate toward the victims (Fischer et al., 2011).

Hence, heterosexual men should be motivated to avoid a nt to their social reputatn by beg passnate toward gay victims, pecially when bystanrs are siarly passnate (see Hopks et al., 2007 for a siar discsn on reputatn-duced helpg).

On the other hand, a passively passnate bystanr should reassure heterosexual men that a passive orientatn toward gay victims is not abnormal and therefore nnot be misattributed to prejudice (see Fasoli, Hegarty, Maas, & Anton, 2018). E., passivy) heterosexual men’s orientatn toward gay victims when bystanrs are siarly passive, but a facilatory effect on their passn when bystanrs are passnate, is possible to generate the oppose set of predictns om the social loafg this (Rgelmann, 1913).

Specifilly, we reasoned that heterosexual men who are not particularly worried about how they may e across to others should be eer to librate their passn agast the level of support that gay victims are already receivg. Our aim here was to tablish two foundatnal assumptns: (1) that ncerns about latent gayns and bigotry are pecially visible among heterosexual men (at least relative to heterosexual women) and (2) that an creased salience of social evaluatn accentuat heterosexual men’s ncerns over how they might be viewed by others.
