@auhsojsa, you aren’t the first person, nor will you be the last, who has had something like this happened to them as a child. The only reason you and your friend were the victims is because you were young, innocent, easily manipulated/tricked and too little to fight back.
It didn’t have anything to do with the teens being gay and they picked little boys as their sexual victims because they were attracted to other males. I say that because having sex with children is inappropriate and mentally healthy adults have a innate knowledge of this fact. These guys were not mentally healthy. If they were gay, they’d be having sex with each other or other consenting males they were attracted to. Not little children who they had to trick.
I’ve met quite a few people who had a sexual experience when they were too young to understand what was happening. Sometimes it was just kids experimenting out of curiousity. Sometimes, like in your case, it was because older people who knew it was wrong, did it to get their jollies for whatever reason, and selected young victims who they could trick and manipulate. They gave you candy to trick you into letting them do something they knew was wrong.
Who knows, maybe those older boys were sexually abused when they were younger and were mirroring what had been done to them. Regardless, it was wrong. It was not a homosexual act. Even if it turns out that those teens were gay, it wasn’t a homosexual act. If it had been teenaged girls who were the abusers, it wouldn’t mean that it was a heterosexual act. Right? It was sexual abuse against children by people who were mentally sick.
