It should be possible for a gay to be visible and easily recognisable because there ought not be any stigma attached to it. One ought not fear repercussions, from the judgement of the man on the street to the judgement of the law, for being visibly and obviously gay. There's a reason we have big, noisy, vibrant pride parades: visibility is key to acceptance.
It's also important to the reclamation of negative perceptions. Not unlike the black reclamation of the N-word to the non-pejorative "nigga", the age-old 'kinaidos' stereotype of the effete man has been reclaimed by the gay community, as have words like "queer" and "faggot". By reappropriating a negative perception and turning it into an intragroup positive perception, we disempower it of its pejorative usage.
Furthermore, you say yourself that you hate having to bullshit to make it in the real world - if someone wants to dress and behave outlandishly and that's who they feel they are, why should they have to bullshit their way through life?
