I certainly don't, but I am aware of the stereotype However, it would be a fallacious thing to suggest of all "gay men" (Even if it was/is largely true).
Being male, white, single, and heterosexual grants you certain advantages as well as disadvantages... just as being an unknown sex of green-skinned alien with a complex mating system and 'bizarre' sexual attractions gives you both advantages and disadvantages. Whilst there are some members of the society that will spite you because of your status as a gay man... there are others who will applaud you for it. Whilst there are some to whom you are invisible if you are a white man... there are others who hate your guts because of their history with 'white men'.
With more land and population, an empire will be more productive... with more land and population, an empire will also be more vulnerable. There are costs associated with these "social privileges" that some here aren't seeing. There are benefits to these "social privileges" that others here are overlooking.

Ne'er truer words spoken
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
