If these men do not like women or constantly boast that men are more attractive and superior, then why they hell are they concealing their same-sex attraction and get on with heterosexual relations? It only makes these men really dishonest and hypocritical.
Can anyone shed light to me on what is it that makes men tick about women?
This is absurd.
Males (both heterosexual and homosexual) are misogynistic and sexist because they have been taught that they are superior beings. There is a meta message in most human cultures that seeps into males as young as 3 - 4 that females are "less than" they are. There is a huge message in most media that women are placed on this earth for men's USE. (A rampant problem in Abrahamic religions but definitely not limited to them.) The diminishment of female value has no connection with attraction. Heterosexual males all over the planet can see attractiveness in this "thing" that exists for their use. This does not mean that most heterosexual males are nauseated when making out with a women and hiding gay porn and enjoying it in secret. That's ridiculous.
Homosexual males are also quite prone to misogyny -- partly for the reasons that you seem to be implying. I have met a lot of gay males who truly believe that the male form and intellect are superior, and snidely refer to women as "fish" or "breeders".
If you are a male and having trouble understanding "what makes men tick about women" - - well, we'll happily welcome another gay man to the forum. You'll be in good company.
