I think you'd have to include what I affectionately call the "beepy euro-fag" genre. A lot of the gay club scene moved towards house, trance and techno in the 90s (before I get flamed I know there were many gay clubs representing deeper sounds), and there seems to be some crossover in attendance between straight and gay dance clubs, but it would seem to me that many people, straight or gay, started out listening to the New Order, DM, Erasure, Anything Box, etc sound on the radio or 120 minutes, then moved into trance, or house from there via remixes and clubbing (francois K and Marc Kinchen anyone???), sometimes leading to a discovery of techno.
