2) They are ashamed and/or embarrassed by their sexually (this is whar i meant by internalized homophobia)
I read the coversation to be about people being different in their displays of affection when they are in situations where they could be judged for their sexuality.
Does this make more sense?

It makes more sense. I still think there are more than two explanations for that particular response, even if it's out of character for them in other places.
But I do see what you are saying now.
