    I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before but I wanted to know if u think gay guys and lesbians don't go along well. I've heard alot of gays and lesbians saying this but I'm a lesbian and I still have a gay guy as a best friend. Though this bisexual girl hates him...

    What do you think?

    Some do and some don't.

    Some gay guys who are really down on women don't care for lesbians. Some lesbians who are really down on men don't care for gay guys.

    I've personally noticed that gay guys who hang around women tend to like femme straight women. Sometimes they even like their boyfriends and husbands. I've also noticed that some lesbians get along well with some macho straight guys because of the fields they work in, which may not be conventional for women.

    I've also known a lesbian or two who like gay guys just fine, but shake their heads at how hyper-sexed some are.

    Then, there are all kinds of partial and full exceptions to this notion.

    My gay friend and I get along we'll even though I'm a lesbian...
    We occasionally squabble and disagree on this or that, but deep down we both have the same pains, struggles, and consequences.

    I'd rather be friends with a gay guy than a straight guy cause with straight guys I worry they might be attracted to me. I don't think I ever had a guy show interest in me unless he wanted to date me. Maybe men and women look at friendships with the opposite sex differently after all.

    lesbians are awesome! for me at least, we like love the same things!!! except for girls
     
  9. Out of my male friends, most of them are gay, so I'd say that gay guys and lesbians can get along just fine.

    Considering sexual orientation is just a sexual orientation, I don't see how the two things should interrupt from two people from being friends >.>
    That's........ sexist! :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    You'd expect that to be one of the easiest ways to build a great platonic friendship because of no sexual interest from either side...

    I actually have only one gay friend. We get along well! He can be a bit dramatic at times and I find myself not wanting to get into his drama but other than that we get along great! :slight_smile:

    My dearest friend is a pan guy, and he's awesome, but I broke his heart when I came out to him because he had been extremely interested in me for a long while. That, however, did not ruin our close companionship.

    When I first started going to gay bars, a gay guy friend of mine did say to me that gay men don't like lesbians. Didn't say anything more about it.

    Never really noticed anything though. Some people like you, some don't... and that's whether you're gay or straight.

    I think it depends on the specific people. I'm a lesbian and I know one gay guy, but we don't talk to each other much, so I'm not sure exactly how well we get along. I know I usually get along well with other lesbians though, but I guess that's to be expected.

    I have friends from both sides, since it comes down to the individual when you get right down to it. Of course, there are those misogynist gay men, and jaded lesbians, who want nothing to do with the other side (like the adult version of "cooties"), but they're hardly the majority. Curiosity and misunderstandings are probably more common between the two, assuming they're both monolithic societies, when they're not. So yes, its definitely possible.
