I am just telling you what I heard not that I believed they would be and I didn't say SUPER fem but I think many envisioned more soft features. I think the fact the females are beautiful people assumed the males would have to be too and the idea of being a smaller segregated group that wasn't truly understood resonated with the LGTB. (Maybe it has something to do all women living together and all men living together only getting together to reproduce.) The community didn't assume the race was full of gays but we related to them and could have projected a rejection of them as a rejection of us.

You may argue being gay has nothing to do with male viera but it was the first insult used to discredit them so it seems like everyone sees a connection on both sides.
