I think it went the other way around, didn't it? At least the first accusations came out, and he used the occasion to say "I didn't do that! But now that I'm talking about this stuff, by the way I'm gay."
It wasn't a great look, because it came across that he tried to deflect the accusations by coming out as gay.
True enough, and he caught hell for the timing of that announcement. There's also the issue of there just being such a different culture of what's "acceptable" in Hollywood. I think it's great that it finally came to light and those activities were at least tempered somewhat, but I also remember reading a lot of claims a decade ago and just thinking to myself that this is something you're claiming 'everyone' in Hollywood is doing, but you chose to specifically target this one actor? The "me too" train was real, and a lot of people were going after big name actors, so I got burnt out on the whole thing and just stopped paying any attention to it.
