There are plenty of Republican gay men. Some factors that come into play are whether they've been successful enough in their own careers to have a Mitt Romney attitude toward ”the 47%," if they're from or live in areas where Republicanism is dominant (like Dallas), if they're Ayn Rand fanboys. They didn't consider gay rights as a voting issue because they felt it didn't make a difference which party was in charge (easier to say when Obama opposed gay marriage) or they have enough money to feel insulated from any difficulties in being gay.
Many keep quiet about their politics because they don't want to have to deal with pointless arguments.
