It is indeed a common heterosexual prejudice, that unfortunately quite a
few hay people have internalised. But my experience tells me that only
androgyneously looking men ever fall for other androgyneously looking men
(and not all of them do). Now, it doesn't mean that all gay people fall for
uber-masculine men either (although the "macho man" is quite a fantasy
among many gay people). It just means that the spectrum of preferences for
gay men is as big as for anybody else. I've met gay men who preferred Asian
guys, others who had a thing for beefy men, others who prefer muscled,
dark-skinned guys (I myself find Brasilian men often very attractive, but
not when they have too much muscle :))) . I'm actually pretty conventional
with my tastes :)) ). The best friend of my partner falls only for Turkish
guys, etc... And that's only the few gay people I've met long enough to
have a conversation with (no double-entendre meant here ;)))) ). If the
small sample of gay men I have met already have so much variety in their
tastes, what about if we take all gay men in the world!!! :)))

You need a straight mind to invent a twisted conlang.
