15. They are largely the same
but there is one pretty big difference. It is far easier to pass as straight for the typical gay than it is to pass as white for the typical black. Thus it is both more tempting for gays to do so and harder for them not to do so (we have to tell people we are gay or else we are assumed to be straight).
