Girls, Why does it seem like far more girls are LGBTQ friendly than boys?

It just seems like a far larger amount of women are LGBTQ, or open to it, or friendly with it.. etc
than men?

Even a lot of girls I know who are "Straight" tend to be very open minded with experimentation
to a degree, that if a man were to have done the same they would consider him gay

  • Women are more open minded, creative, and fluid. Women are known to being more personal, open, and vulnerable with each other. Men are raised to hide emotions, be “the man”, etc. They’re more strict in their futures, they go to college, follow a plan, pursue a reliable strict manly career. Women do the same thing, but more often they go and pursue careers in the arts. So women are just raised in a way they think it’s more ok to experiment than men. A study I saw once was about this company. They brought in a group of accepting straight men, and a group of homophobic men. They showed both these groups gay porn, the accepting group wasn’t turned on, but they were ok with the porn, they accept gay couples. The group that was homophobic was the group physically turned on, denied it, and said gay sex is weird. So men who are raised with the strict “be the man” mindset are actually the ones who desire to experiment more, but feel a need to deny it.

    • So you would say its equally distributed between men and women... bisexual.. homosexuality.. etc the main difference is the acceptance and cultural norms?

  • Maybe there's more pressure on men to be "straight" or "manly" and that kind of thing I don't know. You know like all time when someone says something and has to put "no homo" at the end because god forbid someone wasn't sure you were straight.

  • Women are cooperatively minded and men are competitively minded.
    Ironically, this instinct is based in the pseudo-polygynist mating style of the human race. Hundreds of years ago, the ratio of women to men was consistently hovering around 3:2. So, some women had to share or remain single for thousands of years. We get along with each other pretty well, and women are generally more aesthetic than men.
    On the other hand, when sharing became a cultural thing, women would begin to gather around the best males and leave the worst ones alone. Men had to actively compete to keep and gain mates, which resulted in a kind of a North-North magnet repulsion to each other. Surprisingly, men have the best mental health when their male associations are rather shallow.
    TL;DR: Men dislike being close with other men, women like being close with other women.

  • Maybe coz girls are more open going

  • some guys might not know there feelings yet

  • Nope. A lot of women who claim to be bisexual fake it and are really straight and don’t know what being bisexual means, that’s why it seems that way but it’s not. (This does not include ALL bisexual women)

    • So its more equal then?

  • Because it was socially acceptable to be with girls or have threesome with girls or any of those things. Then it is with the boys. It’s look that is negative is there are two males in the room then it could be seen as a train rand on or gang bang. Not a sexual liberating moment for a woman

  • I am homophobic and Transphobic so not all girls but based on my experience it is virtual signalling they're more likely to confirm to society standard I guess brainwashed? and for brownie points
