We almost never actually see the “gay space communism” aspect of the Star Trek universe. The stories are mostly set on military vessels exploring space outside the Federation. Their supposedly superior society is only alluded to occasionally in dialogue.
In DS9 you see it through the eyes of a Military family, an it seemed like you were free to do anything you wanted. Generally this meant a hobbie, like growing actual crops and cooking foods from your own cultures like the Siskos
