A decade or so ago (I think), someone started a message board that was dedicated to anyone asking any question no matter how seemingly insensitive, weird, etc. (not that I'm saying your question is), and hopefully people on both sides would take it seriously - asking real questions and not trolling and then honestly trying to answer them.

The best answer I saw was to think of the heterosexual couples you've seen. Some of them are laid back (both members). Some may have men that strut around all macho-like. Sometimes the men are more outgoing; sometimes the women. One of them might be serious; one more flighty, etc. Different people are attracted to different things. Probably the couple you saw were just being themselves. Just like some men or women may be attracted to a more flamboyant member of the opposite sex, so are the members of same-sex couples.
