Whether by accident or design the issue is left open. The ambiguity allows for a more inclusive interpretation than the traditional view.
If only I was there. If Jesus and Paul were celibate gays, if they were light in the loafers, rather sandals, limp-wristed, and speaking with a lisp, I would have spotted it the minute I looked at them. I learned that gift from gay brothers in the local church.

But I wasn't there, and neither were any of us. All we've got is a skimpy record.

But we do have : Luk 17:34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed
