I'll say it straight up. Mexican culture in general has always been very homophobic. This is a pretty common example of it. You can insult a mans wife or kids or even his mother and play it off as a joke and everyone will laugh but when you call an older mexican "gay" it's go time. They don't play with that type of comment. Which is stupid and sad in my opinion but that is how it always has been.
