Men in general certainly think about sex quite a lot. Gay men are men. So they probably think about sex a lot. I'm leaving out the subject of lesbians right now because the pernicious myth you're asking about is usually applied to gay men in particular. We're supposed to be super promiscuous and incapable of forming strong emotional bonds. We're supposed to hop from partner to partner in gleeful abandon as we satisfy our carnal desires. No. Gay men, like other men who think about sex a lot, do form strong relationships and do settle down together as loving couples. In fact, that's been much of the point with respect to the gay marriage debate. Obviously. The myth does have roots in reality, though. Once upon a time when gay men were reviled and shamed for being who they were, forming real relationships was hard. Very hard. Young gay men often grew up scarred by society's rejection and by their own internalized homophobia. They often suffered from fear of intimacy. They often didn't love or value themselves, so forming a loving bond with another human being was extremely difficult. The thing is, this happened because of societal rejection?, not because of something inherent in gay men. I'm not saying this was ever universal, of course. I've known loving, dedicated gay couples all my life. I've also know plenty of emotionally scarred gay men. What's really cool for me to see today is how many emotionally healthy young gay men are out there. How many young couples. It's so much more rare these days to encounter gay men with intimacy issues. Of course, I should point out that the assumptions in your details, the false information that some people are spreading, represent an attempt to shame gay men, thereby actually making it harder for them to just be the loving people that they are apt to be.
