I could definitely see that. Their obsession with the idea that kids are being 'groomed' to be gay suggests they think it's a choice. Makes one wonder if they are dealing with internalized uncertainty and cognitive dissonance about their personal choice

Kids really are being groomed by adults into having homosexual thoughts and homosexual arousal. But it's not the gay adults who are doing it, it's the homophobic adults. Homophobia causes homoeroticism as a fetish.

I wouldn't take that article too seriously. It's not citing any sources directly, and the sources regarding penile plesthysmography were not terribly solid studies, IIRC. Medium is a glorified blog site, much like Elephant Journal.
