Liking HSM wouldn't be conforming to a "horrible gay stereotype" - I know which stereotype you're referring to (an unpleasant one as it makes gay men seem stupid and intelligent ones think they have to act stupid), but I also know loads of intelligent and interesting 20-something gay men who love HSM just as they love pop music and trashy TV and musicals and so on. Just because they like something which fits into a negative stereotype about them doesn't mean they didn't choose freely to like it.
