Boneheads aren't skins. They may look similar, but then so do mods and casuals, but it's an entirely different area of fashion - punk/oi based rather than anything related to the origins.
As for the rest - Trad and SHARP aren't different. SHARP was always a home for the traditional skin, but the SHARP badge was appropriated (legitimately) by a lot of third wave bands. If SHARP had been around in 79, then The Specials would have been a SHARP affiliated band too... you could argue that the 2-Tone scene was the roots of SHARP quite easily.
Homoskins... not a skinhead thing as such, more a fetish thing in the same way as leather boys are too. They're out there, some are involved on the traditional skinhead scene, but sexuality is unrelated to music tastes or fashion.
On a similar note to that about SHARP/trad, you've not included any reference to the skinhead revival of the late 70s/early 80s. There are a lot of skins around who prefer the 2-Tone and later ska sound, and these are generally anti-racist too.
'Generally' is a big word though, and I'd suspect there are as many racists in all parts of skinhead as there are in the wider world, but who just like the 'sound'.
