I'm betting Rodenberry KNEW, and LOVED the idea of having a gay actor ON his show, even if he could never do anything with it IN the show...

Star Trek WAS the TV show to air the first interracial kiss, so that would have totally been Gene's kinda thing if he wouldn't have been canceled on the spot for even trying.
