"They like to touch each other's weiners"

totally a kid thing. It's natural curiosity and exploration - does NOT lead to molestation or homosexuality. If one kid is being touched against his WILL - that's a whole nother ballgame. But it sounds more like a "I'll show you mine if you show me yours..." Start associating shame and that's more when the trouble starts. Have frank conversations about "if it makes you feel uncomfortable, go talk to an adult - teacher, principal, whoever". But otherwise it's a completely innocent thing (from what you describe).
