How come One Direction's lyrics were changed not to be gay but Cher's weren't?

  Because they don't want these kids to go, so don't want to get any stick that they can avoid.

  Cher's aren't necessarily romantic though, it could just be like saying to a best friend "there's no one like you".

  Because the X Factor can safely infer that a female is a lesbian but can't infer that a male is gay.

  Because by singing "Make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world" - it is inferring they are all FEMALE, not gay!
