Also where do these gay stereotypes come from - is it all part of some exclusive membership criteria?

gay stereotypes come from non-gays. A gay person would know that these stereotypes are limited to time and place as they are just human like you and I.

no. you don't have to be happy all the time....reguardless of your gayness or nongayness....you have moods just like other people....& your mood will tell you how to feel.
the "happy" idea comes from the original meaning of the word....
Gay....ment Happy or joyful...until it was attatched to the homosexuals...in the late 70's-early 80's
give Webster a gander & see the actual meaning.
As for the other stereotypes....TV has alot to do with it.

The stereotypes come from preconceived notions in people's minds. Every group of any sort has them.

of course not, no one is happy ALL the time. you can blame tv/movies produced by homophobes and people who just don't know a damn thing for all the stereotypes

I'm gay and I would rather die than go shopping.
And talking in lisps is annoying.
