Skaters have always been super inclusive to everyone but scooters. The queer skaters aren’t something new to be gawked at, they’ve always been here.

Agreed, skaters have been outcasts since the old days. When you're already shunned by society, you're not very likely to shun people different from you in turn. Its the same situation in the punk rock scene.
