@ Torpid - remember that your own eyes, and the interpretations of behaviours seen through them, are subject to your own mental set; which is in turn subject to the influences of the media, your social groupings, ingrained sense of nationality, gender, sexuality, etc, etc.
So, you could be projecting your idea of the world (including possible misconceptions) onto the world around you eg. you only 'notice' people-that-way-inclined in certain social settings, or decide that someone is that-way-inclined because they fail to fit in the convenient boxes you use to categorize people.
And it has been said many times before that it takes a person-that-way-inclined to know a person-that-way-inclined :p
