Of urse, some intify as straight but are realy closeted bisexuals or gays by sexual orientatn—perhaps likely to e out at a later age (if ever).
Neverthels, evince suggts that feme-prentg gay men are still disadvantaged pared to gay men who prent a more tradnally mascule way.

This associatn between masculy and stat endowment has plex implitns for gay men, given the prevailg stereotype that they are more feme pared to heterosexual men (Ke & Dx, 1987; Lippa, 2000; Mchell & Ellis, 2011; Sanchez et al., 2009) Men and the Feme StereotypeSuch a stereotype reflects, to some extent, average differenc genr-typily between gay and heterosexual men. Gay men monstrate signifintly more tert tradnally feme hobbi and occupatns than heterosexual men (Bailey et al., 2016; Lippa, 2000; Lippa & Connelly, 1990). As a rult, gay men often ternalise negative beliefs about male femy (‘femmephobia’), and behavurally femise, to some extent, to avoid negative treatment.
