Chronicle of Higher Education: How queer theory turned its back on gay men:

Gay [white] men have been the special targets of some queer theorists’ most characteristic resentments, made to bear the symbolic burden of the ills of capitalism, racism, imperialism, etc. to other member groups within an imagined coalition of sexual minorities.

Even as they face, as they historically have faced, particularly intense challenges of homophobic violence, discrimination, and sexual health, gay men are made to appear as living emblems of privilege and dubious political action -- just as they had earlier in the discourses of the communist left and nationalist right. The academic field dedicated to overcoming our vast inheritance of homophobia ironically perpetuates it.
