Why Do So Many Gay Guys Act Like Women, But They're Attracted To MEN?

I don't get it at all. Gay guys are supposed to like other GUYS, so why do so many of them act feminine, use high pitched voices, like makeup/fashion etc? Wouldn't they act more masculine, since they're attracted to masculine men?

  • There's nothing wrong with any man enjoying and/or incorporating any traditionally feminine interests or skills into his own life. There are many expressions of gender and there's no line in the sand for who can do or be interested in what. I had a bf that really enjoyed knitting. There was zero chance of me telling him his hobby was for GIRLS and ask him to stop. I can't even comprehend how disrespectful that would have been! let other people decide who and what they're interested in and see them as individuals instead of a collection of gender appropriate behaviors.

    • Sure, but why do they act that way when they're attracted to men?

    • Being a man has nothing to do with what someone is interested in. Gender expression isn't just blue and pink.

  • Gender identity and sexual orientation are two different things. Sometimes they overlap, but not always. There are transgendered men (penis-having people with brain wiring more common to a female) who end up in lesbian relationships, for example.

  • Why would THEY need to act the same way as the people they're attracted to? I'm into dudes, does that men I should act more manly?

    • No, but they are men, so you would think they'd rather acting more masculine!

    • For what purpose?

    • Because since they're both male, you would think they would act really guyish together, like how guy friends do with each other.

  • I think it's because they're trying to attract men so they act the way women would to accomplish that. I think it's fucking hilarious tbh

    • That's an interesting POV! LOL, it is really strange.

  • Women like men, they don't act masculine to attract them.

  • Some gay guys are gay because they feel like their gender is wrong and want to be a woman, so they do what they can to look as much as they can as that ideal picture of themself.

  • I don't think it's so much
    "Act like women" but more so "Act in a particular way that resembles how a woman acts"
    Cos well woman don't have proprietorship over it I don't think lol

  • gay guys have the same mindset with str8 girls... no?

  • Too much estrogen not so much testosterone.

  • They act like women because they want to fill the women's role in their gay relationship. And they have less testosterone circulating.
