Well it's due to the fact that they've looked past the sexuality of this new member and wonder why for some people that is the only quality they see. I'm sure they get offended because they know the manner of man this person is however most only see, "traits'.

They are probably bothered by the fact that people allow stereotypes to shape and govern their thoughts.

I hope that answered your question. If you have any follow up questions please let me know.
