It runs deeper. It may be a cultivated remnant from our stone age ancestry where procreating for the survival of the tribe was the foremost necessity. I can imagine that homophobia has it's origins there. But just as with everything else from the stone- or bronze age, we should be above such lines of thought by now. Well, bigotry tells us differently.
In the stone age, having babies wasn't the problem. Keeping the babies fed was.
