Really? Do you mean that one can stick it on or peel it off at will?
I think you should contact Stonewall immediately, they would be very interested to see your evidence for this remarkable statement.
Perhaps you meant to say that he might be bi-sexual?
Depends what you think 'gay' means. Is it just about who you do it with? In which case is it possible to be celibate and gay? Or is gay about lifestyle?

Here's a surprising piece of data.... 90% of men in adulthood have had (or think about having) sexual contact with another man. Does that make them gay? If they are in a 'stable' heterosxual relationship, surely they are not gay, they just enjoy occasional variety? DON'T tell me they are just in denial. They choose to be straight in all but the occasional 'divergence'. Current social mores make this illicit, but that is of course a social construct (might be termed a 'label')
