A question for the Gays
 

How many straight male friends do you have? And do you always feel comfortable if you meet a new group of people where there are straight guys?

I only have a couple of straight male friends. 3 to be exact that I’d class as a ‘friend’. And all of them I’ve only met through serving them at work and them being regulars lmao. I’m not particularly comfortable nor uncomfortable around straight guys they’re just the same as any other stranger you meet imo.

Daniel-X is one of the strangest cases I’ve ever come across mind. So gay he might as well be a girl but has a whole group of straight lad mates who he mostly prefers to the girlies!

Most of my friends are straight guys tbh

So I’m guessing you have a majority of female friends? So is that through choice or coincidence? :think:
:skull: what on earth

I’ve always had a decent mixture of female and male friends but my male friends have always been straight and I’ve always been comfortable with that tbh

Yeah about 90% are female lmao. I think a bit of both. I just get on with and have more in common with females and other gays.

Have lots of straight friends. No problems apart from occasional teasing.
Homophobes don't get to be my friends obvs.

What do you mean? Uncomfortable bc of potential homophobia or that you try to be discrete checking them out?

I don’t even get along with the straights on here besides Marsh and Marc and both of them might as well be part of the girlies!

Yeah the potential homophobia

I had straight friends in high school (but I went to an all boys school so didn’t have much chance) and after I left I didn’t really keep in contact with any of them.

My first couple of jobs in retail it was 90% female staff and it’s only in the past year where it’s been an even balance of men and women, I think cause I’ve been around women for so long now, it’s almost like I’m used to not being around men fnnfnfb

Had a few at uni, none now because I don't really see them

Guess the girls and gays win!

I think I’m asking cuz I met a couple of straight (rugby :eyes:) guys at the gym and I was just really surprised at how nice they were :joker:

I mostly get on with ppl with similar interests and sense of humour, who tend to be female or slightly feminine guys. My best best friend is a straight white guy tho, has mostly straight white guy friends and not many similar traits other than love for video games.


I’m uncomfortable meeting new people where I live in general tbh. It’s quite a rough area filled with a lot of nasty people. As a result people in big groups give me anxiety in general. All my close friends are from elsewhere. And the most homophobic people I’ve met in my life happened to be women lmao

Not the I’m a bit bi guy?

Got thre straight male friends who put up with me talking about my latests stories all the time, not uncomfortable at all. One did come out with me to a gay club and had to leave tho lol

I haven't been friends with him for about 4 years :skull: that one's a long story!

Ha harrowing coming out in the club loos to the sound of Pretty Green Eyes ended the friendship?

I used to be best friends with a hetty but he's an awful person so we don't talk now!

so I'm down to one straight male friend :p

I temped in a very macho office for a few years and it was hard work at times. But in the end rewarding. Tried answering all the questions which were many. Some were standoffish but majority wasn't hostile, just wanted to crack a joke sometimes. As I say, it was rewarding bc I was able to, erm, put them straight about gay stuff.

NOT 4 years.

I’m so old now :(

Over the wetherspoons table sis!
A scary prospect, 5 years since hearing about Germ's sugar daddies on call

Not the engagement

All the gayz (and in fact... people of all orientations) I know have a mix of friends. But then, I *am* a straight male so maybe the ones who don't have mixed groups of friends are avoiding me :omgno:.

But yeah: One of my oldest & best friends is gay and it's never been any sort of an issue. But then, I knew him for years before he came out (although it was not a surprise) and also I'm not exactly a "lad" :hehe:. That said, another of our friends from school was a classic "lad's lad waaayyyy" and the two of them were basically bezzies from about age 18 - 22. Not seen him for years though, he went off the rails a bit :umm2:.

AAHHHHH when that HIV poz guy proposed to germyle live on call
