   Linda Evangelista all the way. I have always thought her to be the most beautiful, stunning, flawless face in fashion.

   Kate Winslet or Cate Blanchett- both so talented, unique, and interesting/quirky in interviews!

    Just explain to me: How can you be gay but have TWLEVE celebrities (forget all the women on a daily basis) that you’d go straight for? I mean really, what does GAY mean anyway? I don’t get why most straight guys are so secure about their sexuality yet so many gay guys are more towards the middle when it comes to sexuality.

    I love this:
    “I don’t get why most straight guys are so secure about their sexuality yet so many gay guys are more towards the middle when it comes to sexuality.”
    … i have NEVER heard anyone even TRY and make that argument before… have you seen what MOST (of course not all) straight guys look like when homos go at it on the big screen at a movie or on tv?… that’s not what anyone calls “secure” haha.
    Sugar, “go straight for” is an expression in the gay world so probably why you’re so charmingly befuddled here- none of us is giving up boys no way no how, but gorgeous angelina jolie wants to plop a kiss on us and aesthetically, we have to say yes: it’s scientific ;)

    so you’d enjoy making out with angelina jolie? you see, i don’t get the desire. i think hillary clinton is “fierce”, but i wouldn’t want to make out with her lol, despite the fact that she’s my idol. Of course I can appreciate if a woman is pretty, just like a straight guy can appreciate that Tom Brady is handsome, but I’d never want to make out or have sex with a woman. I think what I’m feeling is scientific, while what you’re feeling is you thinking that making out with a girl somehow makes you cool or hot, which is just sad. I think making out with guys is hot, thank you very much. Male-on-male sexuality can be hot and beautiful.

    OMG!
    You’re reading way too much into this post.
    You need to R-E-L-A-X for real.
    And of course you wouldn’t want to make out with hillary clinton, she’s not sexy! But throw in megan fox, on Angie, or demi lovato…HELLEAU! They are just hot! And again, the chances of this ACTUALLY happening are pretty much non existant, just take it for what it is. Have fun with it, or move along!

    September 22nd, 2009 at 11:42 am

    

    i hear people say things like “you’re reading into this too much” or “overthinking this” all the time- its time people started to think about what they say, and the implications of their words. I personally, on a sexual level, feel no more attracted to Megan Fox than I do Hillary Clinton, because I’M GAY. Of course from a straight man’s perspective I can see why they’d find Megan Fox more sexually attractive, but that’s not what matters to me. I have about as much of a desire to make out with Hillary as any woman out there (meaning ZERO desire).

    You use the words “hot” and “sexy”, and while normally I wouldn’t think when I’d hear a gay man using them that he’d be using them in the same way a straight guy does to talk about girls, but I guess you are. You may not have a chance with Megan, Angie, or Demi, but aren’t there other girls out there you may bump into who you find “hot” or “sexy”?

    I think this is a valid question.

    instead of dismissing my question, why not try to actually answer it? respond to my points, refute them if they’re not accurate.

19. Tommy D
    September 22nd, 2009 at 1:00 pm

    

    I don’t understand what your question is.
    Do i find women sexy? Yeah some women I find attractive. Do i get a hardon and want to nail them…no. Have I made out with chicks yes, is it gross, no. did i get turned on from it. Not really.

    Anything else?

20. Adam
    September 22nd, 2009 at 1:37 pm

    

    Ok, admittedly, I don’t like being dismissed either when I have what I feel is a valid point but I do get Tommy’s frustration here.
    Here’s our argument as far as I can explain it best:

    We are not out hunting in Hollywood for any of these women to make them our wives or “lays”.

    These are famous and gorgeous women (by all reasonable standards) who we not only find aesthetically pleasing but fun and interesting as well.

    For THOSE reasons we think it would be awesome to “go straight” and hang out with them as if they were our girlfriend… again, tommy’s not looking to wed and impregnate these ladies per se but we think they’re “just so awesome” we’d be “okay” pretending for long enough to make out with them that we’re straight.

    We LOVE being gay, and love our men… and TRUST me if we counterbalanced this with the 12 hottest men, we’d pick the hot guy hands down… because we’re GAY … BUT, in this article, for a brief 5 minutes it takes to read it, we suspend such conventions and imagine how fun it would be to feel what those Jolie lips are like up close.
    Yup, there are hotties on the street, but the aforementioned listed are women we can all recognize and respect for their work and for THAT we cherish them by saying they could “turn us for the night”… again, nobody’s converting full time.

    We DO realize what we say when we make remarks that seem flippant about our sexuality and the preferences that go along with them, but I challenge you that where YOU see straight men as “more secure” who could typically NEVER imagine kissing a guy, that we homos who would slip Megan Fox a little tongue at the drop of the hat KNOWING we’d return safely to the warm embrace of our hunky boyfriends after it was all done the actual “secure” ones.
    I don’t smoke, but if I even wanted to see what it was like and took one drag I don’t think i’d be upsetting the balance of nature or “denouncing” my non-smoker status. It’s that simple.

    But Tommy: OF COURSE I CAN FIND WOMEN AESTHETICALLY ATTRACTIVE. I can tell the difference between Angelina Jolie and Hillary Clinton. Personally however, I wouldn’t use the word attractive, because “attractive” means I’m attracted to women, which I’m not. I’d say that I can appreciate a woman’s beauty; I think anyone can appreciate someone who’s beautiful or handsome, regardless of their sexuality. There is a big difference though, and that’s what I’m trying to get at the core of. Do you find yourself attracted (sexually, because thats what it means) to these women? Do you check women out, for example, like straight guys do? What is the difference between the way you feel and the way a straight guy feels?

    I don’t get the whole “gay guys thinking it’s cool to make out with girls” phenomenon. I wish someone could explain it to me without immediately dismissing me by saying “you think too much”, because obviously there’s a reason they are doing it. Where is the self-respect and pride? As for what you said Adam, I may not be hunting in Hollywood for Ryan Phillippe, but that doesn’t mean that I’m not attracted to him! I think Hillary Clinton is one of the most amazing people on this planet; I think she’s interesting, intelligent and yes, cool, and seems like a very kind and sweet person. I feel just as attracted to her as I do Angelina Jolie or Megan Fox; They may be amazing people, but I’M GAY. Literally. Gay. No ifs or buts. I came out so I wouldn’t have to live in shame anymore, thinking that going out with a girl is the “cool” or “sexy” thing to do or think about. I got out of that mindset, I thought, by coming out, but the community’s just pushing it on me again.

    “Pretending”? I mean, what does that even mean? I just don’t get the temptation, that’s all. I doubt my straight guy friends honestly feel like they want to make out with 50 Cent, even though he is an idol of theirs. I see Hillary in the same way they see him; I idolize her and love her, but totally not in the sense that I’d want to make out with her or have sex with her, or “pretend” that I’m straight and that I’m with her. It seems like straight guys find it easier to distinguish between their feelings and establish the difference between the way they feel about their male idols and the way they feel about girls they are attracted to; For whatever reason, it seems like gay guys these days find it harder to distinguish their feelings and establish the difference, and have this tendency to “blur the lines” which I just don’t get.

    What this whole thing does of telling gay guys that there’s something sexy or hot about pretending to be straight is it sends the message that there’s something unhot or uncool or unsexy about exclusive male-on-male sexuality. It’s almost as if gays think being actually gay is boring or dull; I’m on the cusp of getting a job as a lead actor on a brand new tv show in the states in which I will play a lead gay character; Will gays turn the show off and dislike me as a character (and as a person as an openly gay actor) because I feel attracted to men and have no desire to pretend or try to be sexy or cool by acting any other way? It’s sad really. It’s pathetic. To me it seems like it comes down to shame and self-loathing, the idea that male-on-male sexuality can’t be hot or trendy. The thing is that it is; It’s beautiful. That’s a message that needs to be heard more, ESPECIALLY by gay men.

    I mean, “turn us for the night”? What a demeaning phrase, especially considering all the shit out there right now with right wing groups claiming homosexuality is a choice and gay teens being forced to endure “conversion therapy” because of something they can’t control; You MUST think about what you say before you say it. We as a community have not come far enough yet to the point where we can say and do what we want without reprecussions. This article is INSULTING and DEMEANING to me as a 17-year old proud gay boy (No, I’m not some 65-year old bitter old queen); It brings back the years that I spent living in the closet, feeling like I had to pretend to be someone I’m not.

    I mean Adam, just explain to me: If you find Megan Fox attractive and would make out with her at the drop of a hat, then what is the difference between the way you feel about her and the way you feel about a man you’re attracted to? Where do you draw the line?

24. Tommy D
    September 23rd, 2009 at 8:57 am

    

    Again you’re taking this wayyyy to seriously. believe me my friend you are not going to find anyone prouder of being a homo than I am. I can pretty much guarantee you that.

    I just don’t really understand why you’re writing a novel here, what are you tryign to prove? what would you like me to say because clearly you think this is way deeper than just some fluff piece.

25. jdm
    September 23rd, 2009 at 9:25 am

    

    I’m not accusing you of being self-loathing; I’m just saying that that is the way it makes me feel. I came out 3 years ago when I was 14 so I wouldn’t feel peer pressure anymore to pretend I’m something I’m not, so I wouldn’t have to constantly lie anymore in the presence of my straight friends about “which girls I find hot” or “which girls I’d like to bang”.

    It’s demeaning to me to see gay guys, after all the shit that gay guys have been put through throughout the years (having to pretend they’re straight and feeling like there’s something uncool or unsexy or untrendy about who they are and what they do) advocating those very same sentiments that have held us back for so many years, that have led to so many staying in the closet.

    This is a phenomenon that I’ve seen alot of lately, and it’s something that I find very disturbing and I’ve found hard to grapple with. I don’t think it’s hot, sexy, interesting or cool; To the contrary, I think it’s pathetic, and it’s sad that more young gays don’t share that sentiment.

    This article certainly may be a fluff piece, but the meaning behind it is deep. You can’t just take things at face value; Everything means something. You do what you do for a reason. How can you be proud of being gay when you think there’s something hot or cool to making out with a woman or pretending to be a woman’s boyfriend? Like I said, where is the self-respect and pride? Why do you consider that hot if you’re gay? Doesn’t being gay mean you want to be friends with women, but not kiss or fuck them?

26. jdm
    September 23rd, 2009 at 9:26 am

    

    I mean, are you even a homo Tommy? What distinguishes the feelings you have for Megan Fox, for example, and the feelings my straight friends have for her? They think she’s “fun and interesting” and want to make out and have sex with her too…

27. jdm
    September 23rd, 2009 at 9:32 am

    

    Do you think a man can be as “hot” or “sexy” as a woman?

28. Adam
    September 23rd, 2009 at 9:34 am

    

    Hahaha, and I thought I was arguing with some straight chick the whole time. Really, not even one of your gay friends can see our point of view here? I’m not sure I could find a gay friend of mine who would reject ours.. maybe different circles ;)

    I’m out Tommy. You can take up yelling at the wall if you want but my attempt to be explanatory and calm didn’t work.

    That’s very cool you’ve been out for… 1, 2 years now? But, as guys who have been doing this for a lot longer you begin to learn that the world isn’t all high school bullies and a constant need to defend your choices. Things get easier and more relaxed and you’ll even learn to laugh at yourself once in a while… i promise ;)
    For now, just know that you don’t need to spell it “womyn” to not be misogynistic; if you don’t wear an AIDS ribbon everywhere it doesn’t mean you don’t care; listening to Wagner doesn’t make you a nazi-supporter; and, kissing a girl doesn’t make you a self-loathing gay…
    Also, that’s the proper usage of a semi-colon by the way.

    Good luck being the next biggest gay actor- i’m sure you’ll… take off. All further complaints will have to go through tommy because I’ll just get mean :P And, how are you even posting right now…? Aren’t you in gym class or something? I don’t even mean that rudely… it really just doesn’t make sense to me ha.

    I never said anything about self loathing. You, my friend, have some SERIOUS deep issues you need to look at. I’ve been around way too long and done way too much to be answering to some 17 year old if he wants to read into something that REALLY was meant to be fun. No time, no desire. Join an activist group if you want, but really most of those groups just sit around with themselves and argue about why things are the way they are and nothing ever happens. Trust me, I’ve seen it.

    Kudos as well for coming out early, but I’m with Adam on this one. I understand high school was (is?) a really hard time for you, but you really don’t have to go there with us. You may not be a bitter old queen, but you sure are an angry young one and that my friend is not a good thing. If anything, you are just getting incredibly annoying. You can think of me whatever you want, I really don’t care and I’m sure Adam doesn’t either. I’m not about to get into a huge argument about what PRIDE is and what it means to me.

    Later kiddo.

    Okay, I can’t believe you made a list of 12 girls you’d go straight for, and did NOT put Jessica Rabbit on there. She oozes more sex than Angelina and Megan combined. Or would that be someone who you’d rather be her Gay?

    And yes I know she’s a fictional character, but the fact that she’s animated and STILL competes/beats out REAL women means she should count!

    On a side note, I think this back and forth banter is quite hilarious. Keep it up!

38. Tommy D
    September 24th, 2009 at 11:23 am

    

    JESSICA RABBIT..GOOD CALL
    I was thinking more real person. And I think someone like Jessica Rabbit I would rather want to dress up as…kind like cartoon catwoman.

    Hmm…maybe another list is in order, the hottest animated chicks id go straight for?

39. Harlequin
    September 24th, 2009 at 11:36 am

    

    Yes! That would be a good list! As long as you put Jessica Rabbit and Poison Ivy on there, I’d be a happy camper. I think Jessica Rabbit turned me gay. Haha. I remember sitting down to watch Roger Rabbit and my jaw dropping. My jaw still drops. lol

    Well writing from a girl’s perspective I would have to say “Which one would I go gay for?” from your list:
    Rihanna. Rihanna. Rihanna. Preferably short hair’d/fierce lady, but the red flower child will do.
    Evan Rachel Wood as the Queen of Louisiana.
    Anne Hathaway on one of her tanner more glamorous days.

    February 22nd, 2011 at 11:07 am

    

    @ jdm:

    I’m so late on this post, but I would describe myself as a sexually fluid chica, but society would describe me as “straight”. WHatevs. That’s all irrelevant.

    I’m always appalled at how limited in thought and conservative “gays” can be. The world isn’t that black or white. You can’t force someone to only find one type of person attractive. If anything, like Kinsey observed, sexuality operates on a scale. Which means Tommy can be sexually aroused by a hott chick on a fleeting occasion even if 95% of the time his thoughts are about phallic sword play.

    Maybe it’s just a girl thing, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say that an over-whelming percent of women who identify as straight can be just easily sexually aroused by a Megan Fox/Rihanna sex scene as they could an Angelina Jolie/Brad Pitt sex scene.

    So as much as you are about self-worth and being the ultimate gay, I find your view on sexuality a bit antiquated.

    Maybe it’s me but I find people who believe that people can ONLY be attracted to one gender and never the other self righteous as hell. Gay or straight.

    lol my last late ass response. but I agree with Tommy D! I have no desire to go gay for Beyonce, I’d rather be her bffl.

    Some people just transcend the norms of sexuality more so than others.
