Hollywood's stereotype of men prancing around being girls with fashion tips is NOT how all gay men are.
There are many gay men out there who prefer the rough-tough look vs the metrosexual look.
I remember doing a report for human sexuality on an article titled "hot leather on a saturday night". It turned out to be one man's experiences in a rough gay bar. Men in loafers and drag weren't even allowed in. You had to be dressed like rough men.
Another good example: John Barrowman from Doctor Who / Torchwood. He's openly gay but he was turned down for a role on Will & Grace because he was told he wasn't "gay enough". They hired a straight man instead because he fit the stereotype.
Is it normal that I'm gay but I don't like the stereotypical gay guy
