Any evidence in his manifesto that he ever ever liked boys??
If you read between the lines, then you can find plenty of stuff, but nothing damning.
My take is that he had an undue fear of attractive women. He was unable to go up to and introduce himself to attractive women. Somehow he thought that by dressing nice and driving around in a nice car that women would just come up and introduce themselves to him, but that seldom happens even for the most supposedly desirable "alpha" males that he hated.
The fact that he spent most of his time with other boys was that he wanted his innocent childhood to last as long as possible. He was comfortable around boys, but not in a sexual way. He had as much hatred for boys as girls. He hated the popular boys because they got all the hot chicks. He hated the unpopular boys because they were losers who weren't surrounded by hot chicks.
Basically he was bats**t crazy!

I read the manifesto and my conclusion is the writings are more like a script for a movie. It is as if he wants to have a film of his life created after his death. So it is difficult to say if he had homosexual leanings. His mannerisms were certainly befitting a homosexual.
Maybe research into those named in the manifesto could lead to answers.
I heard a portion of his video, and the Gaydar went to 11.
Putting together some bits of info from the manifesto:
1. Father has male "roommate"
2. Father likes taking pictures of women's butts (but maybe he would have preferred to have taken pictures of men's butts?)
3. Mother was so upset about her marriage to the father that she never considered getting married again.
4. Father's second wife wore pants in the family and the killer resented his father's wussiness and deferral to his stepmom.
If the father was in reality homosexual, and if homosexuality is inheritable, then maybe the killer is a homo.
But that's a whole lotta speculating.
