I'm saying that boys go through a stage in their lives where a knot in a tree stump will give them a woody. Those intense urges which ultimately is to stimulate to ejaculation can be satisfied in unhealthy avenues. Those unhealthy avenues can become deeply ingrained habits. How often can we trace a rapists or pedophiles behaviour to that vulnerable age? Often we find there has been sexual abuse against them but, certainly not always. That intense desire to orgasm appears to be enough motivation for some.
There has been less research on enviromental conditioning than there has on a possible genetic link. Niether one should be thrown out before the facts are in.
Unfortunately there is a great amount of political pressure to accept the notion that homosexuality is genetically predisposed. I doubt you will find much interest in conducting research in that area.
