It exists yeah, as it's prejudice, but I find the whole concept of it just insulting. I'll let you know why with personal insight of a real life homosexual:

Today I was affectionate in public with someone I'm seeing and someone politely shouted "GAYBOYS" out of their moving car (I'd also like to state at this point whenever I've been affectionate with a male in public more than 50% of the time someone will comment).

I had to share a hostel room with 5 people who were talking about why so many gay people have AIDS including such delightful comments as "All those gay guys were in the clinic with their boyfriends, made me feel uncomfortable." and "It's a big deal for poofs though the HIV innit."

When I came back from a guys house the next morning I was greeted with "Was he gentle with you?" as if I was less of a human being as the room laughed. They didn't know I was gay until after they said this so that was awkward but kinda funny to see them try cover themselves and failing miserably ("I couldn't tell because you're not high pitched and annoying as ****" was a personal favourite.)

When talking to a friends girlfriend she said "I could tell you were gay because you walk like you've taken it up the ass."

You know how long all of that has happened in? 3 days. In one of the gayest cities in the world.

Every day we experience prejudice for who we are. Heterosexuals will very rarely get any hatred or even microaggresions thrown towards them because they are the majority. They will always feel comfortable holding hands with their partner wherever they are, they can marry anywhere in the world, they don't face the death penalty for who they are in certain countries. I don't let my sexuality define me, but I always feel like if I say my piece about how I feel I'm just another whiney fag who feels sorry for myself. If I don't speak up then I'm letting other people win. It's oppressive and something people in the majority don't have to deal with generally speaking.

TL;DR, it exists but it's just insulting to actually take it seriously.
