There are a lot of gay poker players, why is this shocking?

Actually, funny story: I was at the Borg about two months ago and sat at a new 1/2 NL table. The first guy to sit down was wearing a very classy T-shirt that said "He is gay" with an arrow pointing to his left. Players were avoiding sitting to his left.
I thought about sitting next to him because (1) it seemed oddly appropriate and (2) it was the 6 seat, and I prefer the 5/6 seats. However, it felt weird to me to sit where a sign announced that I'm gay, even though I am. So I put my chips down at the 2 seat and went to the bathroom.
I came back and my chips had been moved to... the Gay seat. Apparently someone had already locked up the 2 seat and I hadn't noticed. Or maybe the floor just knew.
I thought about pointing out to the guy that his shirt could be taken to mean "A gay guy has position on me," but I decided against it.
