<p>Hi, I'm a straight guy. I was just watching "Sex in the City" and it seems that the girls always seem to like gay guys. I've also noticed that among my friends, girls always seem to hang around the gay guy.</p>
<p>Do you like gay guys? If so, why? And, if gay guys stayed the way they were (ie same personality), but were straight instead, would you like them like you would like "regular" straight guys?</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>And I'm making broad generalizations...use the gay people from "The Birdcage" as an example, especially the "mother" gay guy (forgot the actor's name).</p>
<p>well...I dunno what The Birdcage is..i'm from europe
anyhow...i have several gay friends and i do like them a lot. compared to straight guys..they are less cocky and egoistic. gay guys seem to care more about my problems..it's easier to talk to them and they are really supportive..
and oh yeah...i can do girl stuff with them..which is really funny. gay guys always want to discuss the way other men look, talk about clothes etc..
yeah, i definitely would like them if they were straight...</p>
<p>hey, I've noticed that too. (I'm a straight guy)</p>
<p>i like gay guys because, like strelca17 said,they dont mind doing girl stuff with me. They like the same things i like, such as guys and shopping. I would hang out with them if they were straight because they dont make a big deal about doing girl stuff with me.</p>
<p>duhh obviously u notice it..its kind of hard not to. if you've watched tv you should notice it.</p>
<p>I see the gays at my school hanging out with more girls than most football jocks.. I guess the girls don't mind cuz they are not going to hit on them or w/e</p>
<p>Well, if the gay guys were straight but had the same mannerisms (ie "liked to do girl things") would you girls still be attracted to them (not ONLY as friends)</p>
<p>Gay guys have two things going for them:</p>
<p>1) No chance of sex, as with a straight guy
2) No competition, as with a girl</p>
<p>If a chick has too many friends that are gay guys, avoid her like the plauge, because they will not understand how important football season or March Madness really are, and they will get unrealistic expectations of how guys are supposed to be.</p>
<p>I want a gay guy for a friend may be someone like Will on Will and Grace. they are so much easier to talk to and they can give you relationship advices too. If that guy turn out to be straight then it wouldn't be the same, I probably would not go for him.</p>
<p>Well, personally, I have a lot of friends that are gay, and I think that they're awesome because:</p>
<p>a) they don't have that tension that straight guys have around girls. I mean, what IS IT about the whole trying-to-look-macho thing? Gay guys can just be like, whatevs, and it's cool that way.</p>
<p>b) they're not always questioning whether they'll look gay, because...well, they are. But I mean...straight guys tend to be really, really touchy about that, and it's just annoying sometimes.</p>
<p>c) contrary to what joev said, gay guys can do things straight guys do AS WELL as the things straight guys don't do. I ask my gay friends to explain football/baseball/basketball/the world cup to me alllllllll the time. So it's like a 2-in-1.</p>
<p>d) It's like having fun with a girl, but with a guy's perspective [in terms of shopping, etc etc]. Gay guys are AWESOME to go shopping with.</p>
<p>EDIT:</p>
<p>And about them being straight: yeah, if they were straight and STILL like this, I'd probably like them too, but I'd suspect that they were gay. Face it, there's no way straight guys are ever going to act like gay guys, because there's always that underlying "Does she think I'm gay? Is this dumb? Is she disgusted by me?" current of thought...you know, the whole 'guys and girls can't be friends' thing XP</p>
<p>They gay guys I've met (models) are so damn cocky... they have a serious superiority complex, they think they're better than straight guys at everything and just always have a really smug look on their face.</p>
<p>I've found that the gay guys I've hung out with create even more drama than the *****iest girls I know.</p>
<p>How important football and March Madness are? You mean, not at all?</p>

-straight guy.</p>
<p>yeahh a straight guy and a girl can be close friends. if u dont have any maybe they just dont like u.</p>
<p>stop hating on gay guys- they still get hugs :)</p>
<p>GreenDayFan are you a guy</p>
<p>A straight guy and a girl can be friends in the following situations:
1. The girl is ugly
2. They have been friends since childhood
3. Some other misc. reason</p>
<p>More often than not the guy will be friends with the girl but never a 'real'friend because if the girl is remotely attractive the guy would want to do the girl</p>
<p>controversial and chauvenist? yes, but its the truth</p>
<ol>
<li>one or both are romantically involved with someone else... esp. a friend of that friend...</li>
<li>because they both know they don't like one another...</li>
</ol>
<p>not everyone is completely shallow...</p>
<p>^ agreed...sheesh.</p>
