No, what you did was call posters 'closet queens' to humiliate and belittle them. As you very well know, 'closet queen' is an abusive epithet for homosexuals who are fearful of making their private preferences public. It is a hateful epithet and the way you used it of it made that quite clear to your targets and to other readers. You certainly did not intend it as compliment to gays did you? It is because people like you bully and name call that gays fear public disclosure.
You apparently do not have the sensitivity, grace or goodwill to apologise properly and fully to gays and instead you are casting around for a diversion. I pity you for your prejudice.
