Gill, don't let it bother you--a large number of artists who have actually made their mark on the world have featured male beauty in their work, either because they are gay and that's what appeals to them, or because they simply are able to appreciate the beauty of the male form. It's a sad aspect of human nature, and our society, that we haven't yet learned to deal with human diversity, but fortunately there are many people, including art critics, art historians, and gallerists, who "get it."
