16. it seems to me

that whenever you have a group that is stigmatized, it develops commonalities, shared traits, partially from banding together, partially from shared experiences shaping things similiarly, and all groups are at least subtlely affected by overall societal stereotypes/expectations.

All of that together could lead to a significant fraction of homosexuals exhibiting traits that some could pick up and identify without being able to quantify why all of the time.
