Here is the next problem:
This test doesn't work the way people think. Years ago a very tiny little test like this was done by some University in the USA. Gay rights propaganda people claimed:
- those who were most against homosexuality were the most aroused. This spread all over the internet with the angle being that you could use it to shame anyone who disagreed with homosexuality.

I think what you mean is homophobic people. Drop the euphemisms.

Anyways,
Shortly thereafter (but rarely mentioned) some physiologists corrected the 'interpretation' by explaining it is a well-known response during moments of fear and fright to have a fast surge of blood to the penis.
This is not 'getting aroused' or anything to do with it.
[So, in fact, it would be expected that someone who is quite offended (which would be almost all men who are not desensitized) to register a 'inflation'.

Who were these 'physiologists'? I assume you're referring to the experiment at the University of Georgia in the 1990's? Actually, the researchers fully acknowledged in their report the connection between anxiety and erection of the penis. I doubt they needed a 'physiologist' to 'explain' this to them.
Take a look for yourself.
