Fun fact: People with certain proclivities often cannot conceive of other people not sharing those proclivities. In this case, a serial sexual assaulter and rapist assumes that all men are prone to the same behavior. This is a prime example of what is commonly known as a “self-report.”

I read Enders Game as a kid without knowing the author was a cultist and assumed he was attempting to be homoerotic with the shower fight scene.

I think you're pretty homophobic if you think my orientation could be a hilarious self report. And pretty patronizing if you think I wouldn't have noticed if it was about naked young women wrestling to death in the showers instead.
