What translation says that the centurion's servant was gay? I've never heard this before

translations of both Matthew and Luke use the greek term pais where you typically see servant in modern translations. Pais in greek was often used to refer to a younger gay lover in greek and roman cultures.
Here is a pretty solid article about the translation
