Its because our culture prides being masculine, especially for men. Any man who does anything to compromise that masculinity is seen as a waste. Thats why some straight men feel threatened when a gay is around. They worry we might influence them.
I think everyone, even gay people, go through a phase of hating everything "gay". Its just how society socialises us. It took me years to stop hating myself for being gay. Painful period in my life

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
