@blablarg18 You put it brilliantly. I would add that there are a LOT more gay people than is assumed by society. One can be gay, but not actually be sexually involved with a man.
I will not confuse the issue by giving specific examples, but there are quite a lot of men out there who prefer the company of men and jack off thinking of men. I would even suggest that most men have at least fantasized about having sex with a male or are at least very curious. I remember a famous comedian talking about straight porn movies, and got the men in the audience to roar with approval when asked if they liked seeing a nice cock in porn videos.
