I have a few thoughts. First, I don't think it's unusual to be attracted to gay men. Many of them are absolutely gorgeous! For so long, gay men we're so much better at making themselves physically attractive that when straight guys caught on they had to invent a word for it - the good old metrosexual - and came up with a tv show (Queer Eye) so that straight guys could get help from the gay guys. How could you help being attracted to a guy who's in shape, has great hair, smells good, is well-plucked, etc.? Second, I don't know about your boyfriend, but I know a lot of guys who think there's nothing hotter than seeing two girls (as long as they're attractive) together - it's a staple of every porn film on the shelf! Okay, so most of them aren't real lesbians, but would your boyfriend think it was weird if he found a hot lesbian attractive? Would you think it was weird if he did? Hot is hot, regardless of the sexual orientation. Just becasue they aren't sexually attracted to you doesn't mean that you can't find them attractive. He should feel reassured knowing that a gay knight in shining armour isn't going to sweep you off your feet and take you away. Third, and finally, maybe he finds it a bit threatening. I mean if you're attraced to gay men AND you're attracted to him, maybe he's worried that you're attracted to him because there's something about him that reminds you of gay men. If that's the case, remind him that, aside from the having sex with other men thing, gay men have a reputation for being attractive, well-groomed, well-dresses, understanding, compassionate, etc.

You're attracted to men who are NOT HIM with qualities he apparently DOESN'T HAVE! That said, most women wouldn't blame you. There is a reason for the cliche 'All the great men are either married or gay'! Gay men tend to take better care of themselves and be more stylish (translation: more attractive). They tend to be less macho and sexist in how they relate to women (translation: more likeable). You want a 'metrosexual' -- all the above without him being GAY. Good luck!

If I were you, I wouldn't worry about it. Why is this a problem for your boyfriend? Is he homophobic? Or just jealous of the (emotional) competition? Or maybe your boyfriend's unsure how 'gay' some of these guys really are, and it's sexual competition he's worried about. I think some straight women like to hang out with gay men because they like the company of men or even flirting with men, but don't want to deal with straight men always trying to get them into bed. Perhaps some women use gay men as a substitute for straight men's attentions because they're afraid of sex or they don't feel attractive enough to get a 'real' boyfriend, but since you say you have a boyfriend, I doubt you have this problem.

A gay guy wouldn't try to steal you or even sleep with you. Most gay guys (especially younger ones) have a lot in common with straight females, so it's easy and very healthy to bond together. There's nothing wrong with that at all! Straight homophobe males will come up with a variety of reasons why any non-homo shouldn't like gays, but it boils down to insecurity and ignorance. Chances are that he feels he cannot compete for your attention with gay guys, so he's making you out to be the defective one. Unless you only get turned on by gay dudes sexually, there's no reasonable basis for his contempt.

Name : Paul30472, Gender : M, Race : Hispanic/Latino (may be any race), Age : 27, City : Austin, State : TX Country : United States, As a gay male, I can tell you that I have plenty of female friends. They feel attracted to me as really close friends, almost like siblings. It's because if they ever catch me looking at their chest, they know it's because I'm trying to read their t-shirt rather than get my jollies off. Compared to some of the straight guys I hang out with, I'm more empathetic to how females are feeling and I'm honestly supportive rather than trying to be the one they go out with after the hard break-up or whatever. On a side note, you think manufacturers would move the text away from a females chest area so women don't feel like slapping the heck out of someone every time a guy is attempting to read what whitty text their shirt holds. Truthfully, not everyone is staring at your chest.

Is it because they are safe, or do you percieve them as sensitive and more 'woman-like'? Friendships between gay men and women have the advantage of being strictly platonic, which attracts many women because of 'forbidden fruit' mentality - you want exactly what you can't have. However, if the issue is sensitivity and empathy, many straight and bisexual men are just as caring as gay men. Try figuring out why you like gay men first.
