That's where some people just get ignorant..."wearing makeup" can apply to many situations. Just as "breast implants" range from corrective surgery to the cartoonish crfap that some women do to their bodies. In this case we specifically have a young man who..was a gay eighth-grader who used to come to school in makeup, high heels and earrings. Far beyond the "wear makeup" that you guys are trying to present. And from this characterization, that's not "gay" as I understand it, sounds more like transgendered to me. From what I gather, gay men are still men, they just like other men. Wearing high heels and makeup isn't part of the deal.
