Some of the worst offenders of oppressing minorities were closeted minorities themselves. A lot of notoriously homophobic leaders turned out to be gay. It's like they're trying to overcompensate to be accepted in the group they want to fit in. Human psychology of fitting in your surrounding social group is a weird thing.

She's also really homophobic, and anyone whos been a 17 year old lesbian knows and felt a little worried and possibly had an awkwardly consummated crush on the local exactly that bitch. Mine grew the fuck up though.
