My perception is that that applies as well to pedophilia in the outside world.

That is incorrect. Pedophiles are predomantly men mollesting girls.

It would be hard to think of any reason why pedophilia as such should be so prevalent among priests as such.

If a priest is horny and his circumstances don't allow him an outlet, he will seek out opportunities the provide the most accessibility and confidentiality. That would be 1)other priests and 2) alter boys. I don't presume to know how one comes to "be gay," but horny, repressed men will take what they can get, be that fellow priests, fellow prisoners, sheep, or children. A priest can hardly get it on with Pamela Lee. I doubt this is so much about "being gay."
