First of all, I agree with just about everything you said. So I only quoted the part that I disagree on -- that the argument I made holds little water.

I think you are overestimating the percentage of obnoxious gay people. It's easy to get biased data here, because it's easier to classify a person being particularly queeny and obnoxious as gay than it is to classify someone normal doing something normal as gay. So when you notice that a person is gay, they are more likely to be obnoxious and queeny than a percentage over the actual population would indicate.

Secondly, I think that a certain portion of the population is just inherently obnoxious, regardless of sexual orientation. And it just so happens that obnoxious gay people have learned they can get attention by playing up the whole gay queen thing. But there are also a lot of non-obnoxious gay people that don't do this, because it's not inherent in them to be obnoxious.
