How is it possible for gay guys to find a man extremely attractive, yet the ladies largely view him as invisible?

Getting hit on by gay guys is generally out of one’s control. However, I shut that nonsense down ASAP. Never got far enough into a conversation that the subject of Cornholes would appear.
The gay guy who asked me about my cornhole was a gay guy I used to run into a lot.

Here's how it went with him (and how it's gone with certain other gay guys for that matter):

-He expressed interest in me
-I broke the news I'm straight
-He didn't believe I'm straight (and/or he insisted he could turn me)...therefore he continued coming onto me every time I ran into him

This one specific gay guy went the extra mile and asked about my cornhole (no other gay guy has gone that far).

In a nutshell, you can see I attempt to shut it down (but the gays don't take my shut down seriously)

@Hamurabimbi To add onto what I said on my last post, I just remembered a time when I told cornhole guy "If only the ladies wanted me this badly"

He told me I don't need a woman; I only need him.

Well then it's clear that you're an attractive pillowbiter, but most women don't want a submissive man, unless they want to act out their frustration corn-holing you with a strap-on.



Gay men, on the other hand, don't need a strap-on.
What an unfortunate scenario I'm in.

If I act submissive, the ladies don't want me because I'm not manly enough.

Yet if I act dominant, the ladies don't want me either (When an autist acts dominant, it comes across as creepy/dangerous; not sexy)

Get with a Zoomer girl. They’re into pegging.

That is interesting, because generally, I like women and lesbians and bisexual women like women too.

That's insane. That is like the worst thing that could happen to anyone and I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. There is no worst feeling than being treated like an object by another guy. Only with a woman that's welcome.

In all seriousness, I much prefer the sexually aggressive behavior from gay guys over the awkwardness (and feelings of idiocy/inadequacy) that comes from crossing paths with a woman I got turned down by.

I say that as a man who's experienced both. Crossing paths with a woman I got turned down by is a thousand times worse than getting objectified by gay guys.

At least these gay guys are complimenting me. Rejection, on the other hand, is an insult.
 

Tell her a little about yourself, but not too much. Maintain some mystery. Give her something to think about and wonder about when she's at home.

You prefer really attention from gay guys?

I've crossed paths with women that I've been turned down by and don't get how you are blowing it up like it is really that bad. She is still a woman and you are being true to yourself and who you like, no matter how she is with you.

I guess I went to an all boys high school, you went to a coed high school. You never experienced being in an environment when you only had mainly guys around I guess for four years during your most formative years. @MatureDJ also went to an all boys High School.

Are you bi-curious? I can't wrap my head around how a straight guy who likes women would like complements from gay guys unless some part of him was a little bi-curious? It means on some level you are comfortable with other guys seeing you on a sexual level. To each their own I guess if that is the case. Rejection means you shoot your shot and it didn't stick. Everyone gets rejected. It means the one who breaks the ice/dry-spell, all the more rewarding.

Good feedback.

One thing that stood out in particular was the idea that I'm more comfortable around gay guys than around straight gals.

Since I have zero fear whatsoever of getting rejected by a gay man (seeing as I have no interest in a date or romp with a man), I'm understandably more comfortable around gay guys.

For that matter, I know a decent amount of gay guys. Perhaps I could seek feedback from a gay guy on why exactly he thinks I trigger so many gaydars.
It sounds like you’ve made an interesting observation about your comfort levels in social situations! It’s great that you feel at ease around gay men; often, the lack of romantic tension can create a more relaxed atmosphere.

As for why you might trigger "gaydars," it could be a combination of factors like your mannerisms, style, or simply the way you interact with people. Seeking feedback from your gay friends could provide valuable insights. They might see things from a different perspective and help you understand how you present yourself. Plus, it could lead to some fun and enlightening conversations! Just remember, everyone has their unique vibe, and that’s what makes social interactions interesting.

Most people don't have to 'act' one way or the other.
You are submissive and effeminate that's why you are pursued by gay tops.
You're not dominant and not very good at pretending to be manly, so whenever you act that way, it looks awkward.

I think you should just got the gay way. You'll be in demand, not many rejections, you don't have to act dominant, and you don't have to worry about getting pregnant from all the jizz pumped into your corn hole.

And I don't think it matters much to you who gives you attention, as long as you get some.

This thread was a long time coming ( no pun intended).

@AmsterdamAssassin It sounds like GoodMan32 is expressing frustration with his experiences in dating and attraction, feeling caught between the expectations of being dominant and the reality of how he presents himself. He seems to prefer the attention he receives from gay men, finding it more affirming than the rejection he faces from women. Ultimately, he suggests that embracing his appeal in the gay community might lead to a more positive experience, as it could offer validation without the pressure of conforming to traditional gender roles.

@GoodMan32 It sounds like you've found yourself in quite the conundrum! It's like being stuck between a rock and a hard place, except the rock is a gym bro and the hard place is a fabulous gay bar.

But hey, if you prefer the sexually aggressive vibes from the gay guys, maybe it's time to embrace your inner diva! Who needs the awkwardness of a rejected date when you could be strutting your stuff on the dance floor, getting compliments and maybe even a few cheeky winks?

And let’s be honest, the only thing you’ll be getting from those gay guys is a whole lot of attention and maybe a ****tail or two. Plus, no worries about pregnancy—just a fabulous night out and some unforgettable memories (and possibly some glitter in unexpected places).

So why not dive into the fabulous world of gay dating? You might just find that you’re the hottest ticket in town, and who knows, you might even enjoy the ride!

Thanks for the mansplaining.
