Stereotypes

There are many stereotypes surrounding the gay community for example, we like to dance or the sort of music we listen to.

In a few cases there are gay people who do fit the stereotype but there are also gay people who don't fit the stereotype. Why is it that everyone seems to think that if you are gay then you have to be the stereotype? and what is it that makes so many gay people actually fit certain aspects of the stereotype?

First of all I don't actually believe that being gay makes you like these things, being gay only makes you like members of the same sex, everything else, your personality and so on is just you.

However you may be influenced by other homosexuals that you know such as friends and family or homosexuals in the media most of whom do fit the stereotype.
