The difference now is the stigma is less. People (overall) are more willing to open and have much less damaging and unneeded shame about sexuality.

This is probably a cultural trait to some extent.

At least a couple of my college buddies who were pretty much involved with our frequent gay underground activities at college openly admitted that they were going to get married and have children, and all, simply because they did not want to live their lives in fear, or be seen as freaks of some kind.

You may see them as weaker guys, more prone to conformism and compliance, too. Big part of the attraction for them was the idea that they would never leave the mainstream if they married, had children, and that somehow, the society would take care of them. They were going to land some sort of an good, ole AT&T job, hang on it, while enjoying their leisurely lives

Hardly anything of that planning on the side or personal benefits materialized... But that's another story.
