As BTD mentioned above, I look forward to the day when this is a non-issue. I am a believer that if I want change in the world, that change has to being with me. I am just living my life as I choose to. My choice is that a person's sexuality has no bearing on other parts of their life.
I strive for the same on other aspects (color, religion, etc.). I wish I was there, but one thing at a time (after all,
Everyone's a Little Bit Racist).

What about the possibility that she was dressing to look elegant as a woman? Nothing more, nothing less.
I don't dress to look good as a straight man* - I dress to look good as a man**. I may not always succeed, but making a statement about what my sexuality is does not have any impact on my choice.
* Arguments about my sexuality aside
