This is a reason for which someone may be homophobic but it's not the only reason. Some people are taught to be homophobic by fundamentalist religious people (Westboro Baptist Church). They could have been taught to be homophobic by their parents or community. They could have been hitten on and then reacted with hate.
These are reasons for being homophobic but they are not justifications. It is wrong to be homophobic (or prejudice in any other ways) but the people who are homophobic generally didn't chose that either but were made that way by their society.
Also please do not attack me for defending homophobes (NB: I'm defending homophobes not homophobia nor homophobic actions) as I am bisexual and have experienced homophobic bullying myself and it's horrible.
'closet homosexuals'-now, would they actually BE homophobic, or do they just ACT homophobic as a form of cloaking their true identity? I mean, people do this kind of thing all the time, they outwardly act a certain way to distract others from the truth of what they're all about. But they're not TRULY what they act as, it's just a facade. I don't know that I'd call those people homophobic since they probably don't truly believe what they profess to.
Yes, some are actually homophobic in that they completely deny their own sexuality and supress it completely. But those that are merely hiding it from others yet know and accept that they are gay, I don't think they are actual homophobes.
haha I'm not gonna attack you man........everyone has their own opinions on certain subjects. I don't want to go as far to say "brainwashing" is the case, but in some situations that could be it.

some people are also homophobic because from childhood sexual abuse, like being sexually abused by another man
