Can guys think other guys are hot?

Question

Can a perfectly straight guy (such as myself) think other guys are hot (e. g. zac efron, scott eastwood, and various other nameless poster models for hollister, American eagle, aeropostale etc.) in the same way girls think other girls are hot? In general beautiful people, but I am totally straight. Is that weird?

Attraction is what society has bestowed upon us..! It's man go man or woman to woman doesn't matter.. But society has imposed upon us a lot of things.. Attraction bias is one of them.. For me it doesn't matter whether a guy is straight or gay.. A guy is a guy and a girl is a girl.. Nothing else.. It depends totally upon him/her on howhe/she chooses to be. Period.

That makes sense. What most like is going on is you've learned from women's opinions and society what traits are attractive for a guy or which kinds of looks or faces are attractive. If you were to actually feel sexually attracted to them, I think at that point you would be gay or bi sexual. No it's not weird.

@BertMacklinFBI don't get me started bro.

I don't see it weird at all, but the choice of wording maybe a concern. What I meant by it is a guy wouldn't call another guy hot, he would call him handsome, (the exact same for girls) you would call another girl pretty or gorgeous. It's normal to find the exact same gender physically attractive though.

THANK YOUU! Finally a guy that will admit this!!! Why is it so hard for a guy to say this? BRAVO! This is not weird at all! I hate those dudes who all they say is "fag" and "gay" to anything like thatttt. Those dudes are indeed attractive! Why is it such a big deal these days?

I think some girls are hot but I'm not attracted to them. That's the difference.
Any guy who says he can't recognize attractiveness in another guy is straight up lying. Cause according to him he wouldn't know whether jonah hill was more appealing than channing Tatum.

all my straight guy friends have a "gay top 5". guys like ryan gosling who, if they suddenly went gay, would TOTALLY be their type. It's not really about sexual attraction as wishing they could really be that good looking and cool.

rjroy3 · Answer

It's a concept that needs to be defined.

I can tell if another guy is hot. Not because I find him sexually attractive, but I look at him and know, "ok, girls would find this guy physically attractive". That's how it's different.

I also wouldn't call another guy hot lol. To him or anyone else. You say, "yea, that's an attractive guy" as in he attracts women.

RedThread · Answer

Absolutely man. Men can find other men attractive just like women can with women. It doesn't make you gay or bi unless you're attracted to men sexually lol

There have been times that I wish I was gay or the very least bi.. One of my friends is gay and he's so sweet, funny, smart, and attentive so I sometimes think to myself "if I was gay I think we would make a fantastic couple" lmao

When I have a 'man crush' it is more I want to be that person, like I think they are classically handsome and good guys, so women likely go crazy for them. I even had a professor once and I could just tell he was a good looking guy and of course all my female friends liked him haha

cinderelli · Answer

sure.. better term would be good looking.. but hot is fine too.. nothing wrong with it.. I don't get when guys think they have to say '' no homo'' every time they compliment another guy.. lol..

Anonymous · Answer

Yeah, it is just being honest. Guys who can't are in denial and feel like their masculinity is threatened...

You can find them hot without being attracted to them. There are even girls I find hot but I am not attracted to.

Plus, who the FUCK doesn't think Leo Dicaprio isn't hot?

Jxpxtxr · Answer

I guess as long as you don't feel a definite attraction towards someone of the same sex you're still heterosexual, no matter what you think of them, right?

ZionOrtov · Answer

No it's not weird, and it's okay, it's apart of the human mind, to be able to evaluate the health of person's body and genetic composition through what we perceive to be, and often wrongly so, as beauty.

teawrecks · Answer

Not without at least fifty "no homo" 's thrown in to justify their straightness.

nakedalligator · Answer

I can recognize when another man displays attractive features. Yes. I wouldn't call them hot though.

EgyptianNergerts · Answer

That's fine, girls do it to girls all the time. I have plenty of girl crushes too :) Christy Mac for example

Accipiter · Answer

I think most straight men can identify handsome looking men when they see them. And just because you think another guy is handsome, that doesn't mean you're attracted to him.

Kudu420blazer · Answer

That's totally fine- just because you say they are good looking doesn't mean you are attracted to them.

Beta455 · Answer

Yes, they can. However, guy's standard of beauty for their own gender is much different than their opposite gender's standard.

tl656 · Answer

I personal don't but I don't see way guys can't do that. Girls do that with other girls all the time.

pezzonovante88 · Answer

Sure, I can. I don't want to have sex with them or anything, but I can usually tell if a guy is "hot" or good-looking. But then again, everybody has their own preferences and opinions about what constitutes "hot" and "good-looking".

ConsultantIsBack · Answer

Totally, im straight but I recognize a good looking man. Most of my gym buddies are also aesthetic too.

Humping_Tornadoes · Answer

It's fairly easy to recognize a good looking dude on TV, but not in person. I've seen girls going crazy for some guys at work for example, and I'm like, really? I never get it.

slatyb · Answer

Yes. Straight girls think other girls are hot, so why not?

roxyreigns · Answer

it's perfectly normal, you're just aware that "huh, that guy's hot" and it's just whatever

Lolomon · Answer

Like in a non sexual way? Yea, doesn't make you gay or bisexual.

Sailormoonprincess · Answer

Lol of course they can think they're good looking , but hot? That's just weird

Eternallylucky · Answer

I did hear my boss saying that [name inserted] is a handsome guy.

Anonymous · Answer

No it's not. It's totally fine in fact I find it annoying when people deny how good looking a person is.

annoyymouse · Answer

Of course you can. To recognize someone is attractive and to be attracted to someone are two different things.

Other_Tommy_Wiseau · Answer

you have to be extremely good looking like cam newton or ryan gosling, no homo... but i guess you can as long as you use the term "no homo".

Skadouchebag · Answer

That's perfectly normal. Just because you find someone attractive doesn't mean you're actually attractED to them.

orphan · Answer

i'm straight and i can determine if another guy is good looking in an objective manner. am i attracted to them? No.

93stepsawayfromhome · Answer

Yes. If they're straight they won't be attracted but you can still think someone you're not attracted to is good-looking. (Using "perfectly straight" sounds kind of homophobic, by the way.)

Yanoa_Yanza · Answer

I'm straight and I can say that another guy is good looking, without being attracted to that guy

AlwaysBelieving · Answer

Good looking, yes I can. Would I think the guy is hot? Not at all. I think the term "hot" is for someone you found attractive and are attracted to.

dudeman · Answer

i can't really i can tell when i dont want to fight them but thats about it.

jacquesvol · Answer

I can only judge that by hearing girls' reactions about them.

Evil_romantic · Answer

Yeah a lot of strait girls go down on other chicks too, but no nothing wrong with knowing another guy is attractive.

Anonymous · Answer

Only if you hashtag NoHomo within 5 seconds of the comment. Otherwise you're labeled gay.

coolbreeze2 · Answer

hot might be the wrong word, handsome or attractive yes

BruceJender · Answer

Yeah of course... what makes you gay is if you want to shag them.

chrisbigman · Answer

Hot? No. Attractive? Sure. Hot to me seems a little too much. I'm straight, by the way.

Anonymous · Answer

No, you can't. A straight guy can acknowledge another man as being handsome, thats fine. But calling a guy hot or attractive? Gay

Anonymous · Answer

You homo! Lol jk. No, anyone can appreciate and understand the attractiveness of same sex people without being attracted to them.

Anonymous · Answer

Yeah - there's a difference in telling if someone is good looking versus them being attractive.

Anonymous · Answer

Yes of course we can. Homophobes have problems with it maybe but not me.
