Honestly I do not think that is the case. I think most American's could care less what your sexuality is. I had to get dressed in a locker room where there were a couple of gay officers. Never a problem. I didn't even think twice about it. Maybe if someone is insecure about their sexuality it might be an issue. However I just do not see where this is an issue.

There's a bit of double standard, though.

"What did you do over the weekend?"
  1. "Took the girlfriend to that new cool restaurant": Small talk.
  2. "Took the boyfriend to that new cool restaurant": Advertisement of sexual habits.

False equivalency

The answers you listed are two answers to a question asked, and contrary to your assertion both indicate advertisement of sexual habits.

One is talking about their sexual preference as being heterosexual. One is talking about their sexual preference being homosexual. If this fictional person didn't want to advertise their preference they also could have just said: "Went to a new cool restaurant".

That's my point. To some, one would be perfectly acceptable in a locker room and one apparently wouldn't.

oh the gay guy, why did you say Hall of Famer

Don't worry, the woke will dispose of him like they disposed of Caitlyn/Bruce Jenner

Need to do some housekeeping with this...

HOF usually means Hall of Fame...that's incorrect.

He is a DE currently with the Raiders, and is the first openly gay NFL player.

Raiders DE becomes first active NFL player to come out as gay

He's HOF because he's a great republican.

It's not surprising. On the show Hard Knocks he was giving very detailed financial advice on a white board to other players.

He's very smart
