lurichan I think it's more likely that people accept homosexuality who identify themselves as goths, but I don't think it's really talked about all that much. Not in a "oh that's taboo to talk about" sort of way, just more of a casual indifference to sexual orientation. It just doesn't seem to be all that big of a deal.
From my experiences with the subculture, it does seem to be this way. There is a heavy emphasis on self expression, and a sort of indifference twoards sexual orientation. I have met a couple homophobic goths, but they seem to be rare.
One thing which may have helped to form this indifference is the stor of andrygonus tone that the subculture takes on. Gender doesn't seem as large of an issue as it does in mainstream society. Guys in dresses, and girls with very short, or even partially shaven hair, are all pretty normal within the culture. This seeming indifference to gender may cross over into the realm of sexuality as well, so that many goths are indifferent to the issue.
As far as art goes, I honestly don't know why there is so little mention of homosexuality in gothic art, literature, and music. It is understandabel why older gothic literature, such as Poe and Stoker, does not speak of homosexuality, but I do not know why modern gothic literature averts the topic.
