Why do gay men and straight women make such good friends?

[cheeseboyy]

all the gay guys I know have all female friends, why is this?

The reason is that gay men don't primarily befriend girls to get into their pants because their minds are not focused on that topic.

Gay men often understand women much better than "normal" men and women can act much more naturally with them since they will not have to fear any sexual implications. There is no misunderstanding, no hidden feelings, no sexualization and not objectification between a gay man and a woman.

That is how it should be with straight men but alas, it is unfortunately very seldom the case. Men will always try to change a platonic friendship into something else.

Of course, some women will also try that dirty trick.

Maybe, because you know they are not just your friend to get something from you, which makes it easier to trust them at the start.
More trust is always a good start for a good friendship. That being said I have more and better hetero male friends, than gay male friends.

Gay men are easier to get along with, generally speaking.

This is a good question. Maybe because they feel like it's easier to get on with women

[cheeseboyy]

because they are more like women themselves?

Not necessarily
