But that young men, in the absence of young woman, would flip the switch out of loneliness and become homosexuals, and that was bad for the state because ewww.

I don't think you can flip the switch, that's propaganda. Guys would just remain single or get brides from other countries like Russia or SE Asia.
On the flip side I think the one-child policy has empowered women (those that did not get chucked down a well). Girls who are the only child of a family are treated like boys were traditionally and given power to work and make the future family decisions (ie. run the family business).
