Be truthful!

No, but I could kind of undersand it happening.

Many gay men are more willing to talk about emotions, or just be emotional, and some women really value that and can be attracted to it.

LOL good post... Before I was super saavy about the ways of the world as I am now (hahaha)... I had some gay friends, (guys) and didn't always know right away that they were, sure, some of them were effin' hot - of course I had a crush.
Now though? I've still got a couple of gay friends, one is very good looking but he's gay, I know it, he knows it, we are friends. I never did develop a crush. I usually can spot a gay guy about a mile away. **Disclaimer, I do not mean this in an offensive manner. I just have a few gay friends and always have so I'm very aware.

No. "It" is just not there when you look in the eyes. A couple friends came out to me first and even back in the day before it was "out" I just felt like we were friends.

I'm not aware of any man that I was attracted to having been gay, but I think it's possible to be attracted to someone regardless of their sexual orientation. I don't think initial attraction can be helped, so I'm not quite sure how to answer your poll. I guess I fit in with "Not that I know of - I'm not homophobic"?

I work with a gay man and his husband works for another local business. I've told both of them on multiple occasions that I have crushes on them, although it's mostly in jest They're ridiculously good looking and absolute sweethearts! They've both told me that if they were straight, they would 'totally get up in my business' (their words, not mine!) so I figure that's as good as it's gonna get.
