They could go to orgies sometimes just for the drugs and the snacks. That's how most gays make friends these days.

It's kind of crazy how it feels like no one is expecting platonic friendships between men.

When I go to text guy friends "how are you" or "what are you doing" the suggested emojis are hearts and kissy lips.

I don't even use those emojis asking people I'm dating how they're doing, it's kind of surreal.

I don't care who you like to fuck. Can you play Warhammer?

As a completely straight man myself I find the gays to give the best blowjobs.

Bro, the demographics don't matter. Just make friends with the people that you mutually enjoy the company of. If they're not a horrible person, then you should be friends. Expanding the demographics you're willing to accept as friends can only really expand how many people you have as friends. Unless some of your friends have some sort of hatred for some of your other friends.

Damn, weren't gay men just teaching us empathy last week thanks to Obama?

I can't wait to see what hetero deficiency the media drops in your lap to fix for us next week.

Thank you so much, and I'm sorry?

Honestly I just want friends. I don't care who you are, who you love, how you identify.

Why can't I find other people to sit around, drop acid, and argue about good music?

Living in San Francisco, if I met someone with no lgbtq+ friends I would probably steer clear of them.

As a straight, married man, sounds good to me.

I don't know what I expected.

People are lonely, everyone could do with a few good friends no matter their sexual orientation. Gay men are people and therefore have people problems, i don't think they have it better or worse in this regard. I personally haven't meet a gay man who has been that much different from other men, so i find this article very odd, or at least built on stereotypes (maybe just me?)

I have a long rant about the loneliness epidemic in me but ill spare everyone. main thing is this isn't as new thing, but that does lite to help and doesn't add value to the conversation.

How about a n NBC sitcom about a Republican racist asshole who moves to Seattle and makes a ton of friends only to find out they are all gay at the nude bike riding parade?

I had quite a few gay friends growing up. Was neither here nor there for me. They were my friends.

Are those damn fabulous bastards gonna help rebuild this broken car-centric society?

If I could get over the crippling anxiety of meeting new people, I'd be happy to hang out with anyone regardless of who they like.

what now gay men have to solve straight mens' problems too as if they don't have enough of their own caused by the very same group

I just made a gay friend from school and it’s honestly great. Were both gamers and he has a ton of cute girl friends that he has introduced me too lol

Straight men need to wash their assholes more and stop claiming cleaning their butts is gay. Might make more friends that way.

Maybe, but honestly I think they should really just focus on befriending good people that they get along with. Any given straight man may find that in a gay man, but plenty of others will find close friendships in people regardless of gender or orientation.

What the living fuck. My gay friends have always just been normal dudes that like to suck cock. Nothing special about them. They aren’t an enlightened emotionally available class of supermen. They like video games, weed, and sci-fi, that’s why we got along. Common interests, not some unacknowledged desire to broaden our horizons.

This article is 90s gay.

Straight men will do anything to avoid having non-surface-level connections with other straight men.

Wouldn't gay women as friends for straight men make more sense?

Probably more important to find people you vibe with and like doing the same things you do than to specifically seek out token characters from different demographics.

Also if you're excluding people from being your friend because they're gay, you don't deserve to have friends anyway.

If they don’t have enough friends, maybe the problem is them/their personality?

, many INSECURE straight men/ or "straight" are quite afraid of potentially gay men approaching, even staring in thier direction freaks them out. plus the insecure hypermasculine communites like, gym/bodybuilders are extra homophobic. on some yt videos people who follow some bodybuilders, they are so afraid that they wear masks so people cant potentially hit on them, someone called them out why they are wearing a mask, are they gay? and another comment tried defending them saying they dont want gay people thirsting over him.(you put yourself in public for viewing thats on you)

I am... mostly straight (heh), and I have had multiple gay dude friends who were just platonic friends.

Yes, absolutely this can work, why would anyone think otherwise?

Lotta straight guys could probably get some decent fashion and grooming tips, I know I did, hahaha!

Also, entirely serious, gay dudes can make some of the best wingmen ever for their staight buds.

You can just actually do this.

It's not like matter and antimatter. They don't destroy each other on contact.

It's always someone else's job to fix straight men's problems.

I have a very straight guy friend. his two best friends are a gay trans man and me a bi trans woman

I have far more straight than gay friends. I think it is purely because of my hobbies. I like cars, computers, and a bunch of these things that someone once decreed are "heteronormatively manly" and as a result, my friends happen to be straight.

I couldn't care less who they have sex with, because I don't choose friends based on what they do in bed.

"As long as they don't come on to me..."

🤮
