Wow, thats a big brush you must have there to tar each an every one of us with!
It sounds to me like you have met the wrong kind of people, and maybe you need to look inwardly on that matter as its often the case that people who always meet a certain type of person, be it friends or partners, usually are doing so through some subconscious choice.
I will agree that there are many gay men who act in the ways you describe, however its far from all of them, or the 99.9% you mention and I think if this were compared with a real sample of straight men there would be parity.
How can you conclude that gay men have grown up lacking male figures in their life? I am sure there are those who have had little male influence, and those who have grown up with a house full of males.
Gay men lie without remorse? Really? I know so many people who while growing up and coming to terms with their sexuality were in pieces due to the fact they had to hide the truth from their loved ones until they were able to share with them.
On the surface your post appears to be either a thinly disguised anti-gay posting, or the result of some inner annoyance at meeting the wrong guys. Or is this more a behavioural science project? It is dangerous to generalise about any group of people unless there is clear evidence to demonstrate your theory rather than relying on a string of theories and assumptions, largely based on (it seems) ones own personal experiences.
In conclusion, there are good and bad people in all groups/categories/classifications (or whatever term you prefer) and it would be more beneficial to work out the reasons for the differences than to generalise.
