What I said about my friends is that they might have brought it up in conversation, not to amuse themselves at my boyfriends expense, but because they would not have thought he would care about this. Maybe it should be common sense to them not to discuss things like this, but a lot of my friends are of a different mindset where something like this isn't a huge deal, and a lot of my friends are gay, which may have something to do with it as well. If they were to be amusing themselves at anyones expense, it would have been mine. I'm sure your friends know details about your past that you'd rather not have your significant other know, and I know I'm not the only one who has had friends reveal things to the people I've dated that I would prefer not be revealed.
And no, I do not really hang out with, and certainly do not have my boyfriend hang out with, the people involved.
