Our society devalues femininity to the point men are mocked for taking on feminine roles and behaviors, so of course you're going to see far fewer guys -- especially those who are straight or in the closet -- acting in a feminine way.
FTR, the only crossdressing guy I've ever known was straight.
Excellent commentary with regards to gendered emulations in our contemporary society and their intersection with gender identity, sexual orientation, and sexuality. It's one of a million reasons I'm an outspoken feminist.
Also, Ellie ([MENTION=809]Felicitates[/MENTION]') visual comment above is perfect. I just want to screenshot the body of that post and push it through social media and print channels a million times over.
