Final Answer :
Kelly would explain it through the fragmentation corollary that suggests that apparently inconsistent constructs may be subsumed under a superordinate construct.* Author's note: This does not imply that gay men are not real men but rather reflects the common stereotype that "real men" are heterosexual.
