This, a lot of times, is what I've seen as an "issue." A straight fraternity man (for example) thinks that if a member is gay, that the gay member is going to hit on or make a move on him. This freaks him out, so he doesn't want to allow an openly gay member into the group.
The irony is that with the percentage of people in this world who are gay, if there are even 10-15 members in a chapter, chances are, at least one of them is gay, whether the chapter knows it or not.
It's like the Boy Scouts now accepting gay members.. as if there were none before...
