I find gay men attractive as a straight guy

I don’t know if this sounds weird but i have always felt more comfortable around queer men. especially as someone who’s always been a nonconformist and follows his own beat.

I was kinda judged a lot for not being traditionally masculine like most of the other boys growing up. they were all straight (or acted like they were) and very homophobic so they would treat me and the few openly queer guys terribly when i was in middle/high school. But during that moment i was in the alt scene and we were more open minded than other groups.

i made friends with the queer kids and they accepted me with open arms, especially the guys. i never stopped being myself and i still like femininity so even now people assume i’m some flavor of gay and i’ve been hit on a lot by guys compared to girls. and honestly it’s nice how they feel comfortable enough to approach me and i find their openness and lack of pretence refreshing. most of them also know how to take care of themselves, have a sense of style, and are just a joy to be around. my girlfriend finds it amusing especially when i get flustered by one of them 😅 Idk i just find their energy very attractive.
