I've only seen one episode, so I don't have too much of an opinion. But yeah, that whole dynamic is so common in shows with canon gay couples (one more "masculine" and one more "stereotypical queen") and it's really starting to bug. For the messages it sends AND for the lack of creativity.

Yeah, I hate that message as well. That in any couple, even gay couples, one MUST be the man and one MUST be a woman, even if it is a man acting like a woman or a woman acting like a man in lesbian couples.

Why can't they just both be two masculine joes who happen to be gay? They exist in real life.

Murphy said the couple is based on him and his husband, so that's probably how they are in real life.

The only canon couple I know of that doesn't adhere to this stereotype is Jack and Ianto from Torchwood. Can anyone rec more?
