I went to a small enough school where labels didn't exist. However, if anyone had been out as gay, I have no doubt that label would have been used. There were jocks, band members, smart people, gamers, and all the rest of the tribes you could think of, but everyone mixed with each other so much that no one was placed into just one group and no one was pressured to just stay with their preceived group. I believe that experience broaden my social skills; because, I feel comfortable talking and interacting with people from all walks of life because of it.
