I don't dissagree that fathers and male influence is important in the life of young boys.

But I am very skeptical about the claims that homeschooled children have less male influence than public schooled kids. I doubt that there is any link between homeschooling and homosexuality.

He makes that claim and then bashes homeschooling to support the claim. At a time when the establishment has declared war on homeschooling. I want to see studies backing a claim like this, before I accept it as true.

Where does he make such claims? I think that you may have misunderstood some of his statements.

Dr. Nicolosi did not claim that home-schooled children have less male influence than public schooled kids. As a matter of fact, he said in his experience, their fathers are more involved than other fathers. He did not say that there is any link between homeschooling and homosexuality. He did not bash home-schooling. Why would you want to see studies backing a claim like this, if you can't even read this?
