It really seems to me that a portion of gay men identify more with women than with straight men, so see attacks on masculinity, and the derision of male traits, as a 'good' thing; it's as if the feminist mentality which encourages women to see themselves as self-righteous victims (and therefore incapable of any wrong doing) has similarly inspired gay men to perceive themselves this way. That's certainly been my experience whilst discussing these issues so far - the gays always back up the feminists.
