The whole premise of the show is that it is supposed to be about a group of oddball weirdos that don't really fit in, so I assuming they are playing up his character and exaggerating it.

What's "acting gay?". Being gay means you're attracted to men...that's it. Lots of straight guys act a little feminine. It's not 1948, standards of masculinity have changed.
