I love being hit on by gay men. I can actually tell it’s happening.

You've been savagely attacked by an internet monster.

Compliments!

[–] deltapi@lemmy.world 29 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Right?! This right here.

I was once yelled at by a friend of a girl for "ignoring her advances." I kid you not, the "advances" consisted of her walking up to me at a party, saying "hey, aren't you in my math class?" (To which I answered in the affirmative) and "well, um, I guess I'll see you there Monday!"

How the fuck was I supposed to know that was an attempt at flirting?

The older gay guy at work? "You're gorgeous. Ever consider dating a man?"

As a mostly straight dude who does not score high on conventional physical attractiveness I encourage absolutely everyone independent of their gender to hit on me. Being told/signaled that I am attractive is always welcome.

Just don't blatantly ignore boundaries like physical touch without explicit consent. That too applies completely independent of gender.

Man if I ever get comments on my appearance it goes to my head and I cant think straight for days.

Thankfully that's only happened like twice.

Temporarily homosexual?

You too remember when that girl told you that you had good, healthy finger nails in 2012?

[–] DillyDaily@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Pretty sure I still catch myself smiling over the girl in highschool 18 years ago that said she was jealous because I had really long and pretty eyelashes.

I'm sure you're aware but I think it needs to be said more; but I think that most women would love to pay men compliments on their appearance, but unfortunately, it sometimes leads to weird, obsessive, totally inappropriate behaviour from said men and so that scares a lot of women off.

We, as a society, should try to discourage men from reading too much into a purely platonic compliment so that women feel more free to give men compliments without fear of super awkward and/or scary situations.

I used to provide security for a club that held a lot of queer dance parties. It's pretty flattering to be hit on by gay guys. They'll give you honest compliments that most women won't.

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 42 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They'll give you ~~honest~~ compliments that most women won't.

;_;

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

wait, are you saying women don't give you complements or that gays don't give honest ones?

I'm a straight dude, and I would be Don Juan if as many women found me attractive as gay dudes have.

I've only been hit on once by gay men and it was a case of mistaken identity. It was at a halloween party in 2004 and I was dressed as an Abu Ghraib detainee from Iraq, mostly naked wearing just a black hood, a dog collar and leash around my neck, and skin colored underwear with a stuffed dog attached as if it was biting my crotch. Nobody really got the costume - they just assumed it was some sort of fetish thing.

I went to a gay bar with my gay friends from work last week. I had 5 compliments on my beard. It felt so good.

[–] TheOctonaut@mander.xyz 24 points 1 month ago

How is your wife doing by the way

[–] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 49 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Had one recent tenant straight up tell me within the first few days of renting, for absolutely no reason whatsoever, "I hate faggots".

I just stared at him and replied, "You're just mad because they don't hit on you"

He was also recently removed from the property.

He was barely 19, and just started university.

Good luck in life, bro.

Aubrey Plaza femboy confirmed????

[–] flamingo_pinyata@sopuli.xyz 31 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Often I wish I was attracted to men. Gay guys seem to find me attractive, unlike (both straight and gay) women

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 31 points 1 month ago (1 children)

To be fair, gay women don't find men attractive in general.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

And the men who do attract us tend to really hate the features that cause that

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh hey, I see you’ve met the guy who keeps aggressively refusing to take my friends’ nos for an answer

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

How did yall get my picture?

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Just cuz someone's blind doesn't mean they are willing to date the ugliest ogre.

[–] Remotedeck@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 month ago

Idk his eyes are pretty striking

[–] kibiz0r@midwest.social 8 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Should I give that show another try?

I remember really enjoying it when it was first airing, but I fell off cuz my living situation got all messed up and I think it’s one of those where I’d have to start over from S1E1.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

What's this from? It's revolting.

[–] CrazyLikeGollum@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I think it's Legion; a series based on an X-Men character named Legion, who is Charles Xavier's neglected schizophrenic son, but because of licensing issues they couldn't include most X-Men characters and as a result they created a story that doesn't really feel like any other superhero thing and is instead very weird and very trippy.

I haven't watched it since it's original run and don't remember much more than that, but I remember liking it quite a bit. I might rewatch it soon.

The struggle of being straight women..

The odds are good but the goods are odd.

[–] sirico@feddit.uk 6 points 1 month ago

I lack the confidence to say thanks, but your wasting your time or is it more I might say yes.

[–] MissJinx@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago
