As a bi man, I would definitely like to know. It just depends why I'm going out in the first place. There are times when I'm not in the mood for being hit on(by dudes/women/anyone). Now all gay bars are not like this, but in some of them just showing up can be an invitation for flirting in my experience. So yeah, some nights I might want to avoid places like that. I'm not sure how that's homophobic. It seems unreasonable to assume someone is a homophobe because they might not want to go to a gay pub. I'm an atheist. I have nothing against Christians, most of them are great people I've found. But I would feel weird going to a church service. I'm not a part of that culture. I could see a straight person feeling the same way about gay/lesbian bars.

Why aren't bars marked as being explicitly heterosexual then? For all the same reasons. It's not the marking of it being homophobic, it's more that it was explicitly mentioned; a heterosexual person is more likely to be offended by a gay club than a gay person being offended by a heterosexual one and that's the truth of the matter, imo. And unfortunately, for many if not most women, the idea of "not feeling like being hit on" doesn't really seem to apply to any heterosexual bar/club either.
