A couple of those are speculated, I think.

Gays are just like straights, they're people. It's really irritating when someone looks at you differently just because you love someone. >.>

You cannot appreciate Shakespeare until you've read his works in the original Klingon...

DaVinci was arrested for sodomy.
Shakespear wrote about his homosexual experiances in sonnets.

So did Alexander, but back in those times, having a lover of the same sex wasnt chastized and was actually considered a higher social status.

Yup, even in Japan that was prominent. Men would have their formal wife, usually for the sake of creating children and raising them, but having a mistress or subordinate for sex was quite common. Pretty much everywhere in the world that happened.
