I don't know about that. I mean there are gender-nonconforming gay people of both sexes who tend to have gender-nonconforming voice inflections and manners of speaking that are at least in part a product of hanging around mostly with the other sex, but there are also lots of more gender-conforming gay people of both sexes who don't have those kinds of aspects to them. The latter can often successfully pass for straight (perhaps intentionally, to avoid the stigma attached to being gay). You probably have met more gender-conforming gay people before than you realize and just haven't been able to identify their orientation because you rely on stereotypes for that, as though every gay person cross-dresses and so forth.
