As a nonbinary person, is it okay for me to want to date gay guys?

I’m also pansexual so gender doesn’t matter. Additionally, I don’t see race either. So I am just a person who falls for whoever. But I’ve been looking up so many articles to see if it’s okay for someone like me to be attracted to gay men. I do have female features but I have no gender really. I also am attracted to female, male, non, and beyond. But is it okay for me to like gay guys specifically?

Superb Opinion

  • A lot of girls like gay guys.

    my mates gay and it’s annoying how many girls are attracted to him.

    the point however is he’s gay, even if they look like Derek from Glasgow, he’s not attracted to them.

    a night out usually involves him having a girl flirt with him, he tells he’s gay, she tells him he’s not, he tells her he is, she then says can you make an exception….🤦‍♂️

    so you can be who you want, and like who you want, however that other person needs to be on same page for attraction to work.

    • I love this response. This is perfect and I thank you so much. You’re the 4th person whose said around the same answer. Gender may be a aspect in life but identity can change how people respond to sexual attraction of a person.

    • @ pretty pink Anon, thank you.

  • You can do what you want. But I encourage you at some point during this summer to go on a solo road trip, adventure, etc. Unplug from social media and get away from the chatter box. Limit communication from your friends. Only for a few days.

    During this time do some real deep thinking about where you are in your life right now. Personally I think you got some other issues going on that is impacting your identity and sexuality. But it’s hard to see that when you are immersed in a environment with constant distractions.

    I went on a 2 month adventure to a different country to learn a foreign language. I drove all the way there (it was a border country). When I got back I felt a huge shift in my brain, my approach to dating and what I really wanted in my life.

  • It's okay for you to be attracted to whoever. I identify as a woman, but I've been attracted to gay men and trans women. I don't think gay men would be attracted to you. They are attracted to other men after all.

  • I don’t think gay men would be attracted to you since they’re attracted to men so maybe go for pan men since they’d have the attraction

    • But why go with pansexual men?

    • Cause pan men don’t care about gender where as gay men are attracted to other men so it might not work out

    • Does that have to exclude straight men?

  • It's ok for you to want to date a gay guy but not very likely for a gay guy to want to date you back for 2 reasons: -
    1) there attraction to men is likely more than masculine features and likely to include what they have in there underwear.

    2) if they did want to date you well it would make them bi not gay so again you wouldn't be dating a gay guy.

  • You can like whatever you want, doesn't mean they are going to like you back.

  • I don't remember anyone enacting any rules that say who you can and can not be attracted to. Just make sure you let a potential future partner know whether you have a Y chromosome or not since many guys care very strongly about that. Your gender ambiguity may make you most suitable for bisexuals men though.

    • She was born a female any guy would like a female

  • I'm binary code. Want me to show you my 0s and 1s?

  • Start defining yourself. Non-binary is not a thing, it's just modern braindeadness.
    Once you've determined who's the perfect partner for you, date whoever you want.
    Anyway, if you're a girl, dating gay guys won't do you any good. They have no use for anything your body has to offer.

    • Well said!!!

  • Do you have a pussy or a cock?

    Pussy-Gay guys like men with penis and balls so it won't work out.
    Cock-Yes.

    This "nonbinary" stuff is all bullshit. You can be attracted to whomever or look however you want but identifying as something else doesn't change shit.

    • However, I will have to disagree. If I process a male featured body image and I was gay but someone who was non-binary who had female features. I believe I would be able to date this person without having to change my sexuality. Just as gender fluidIty is able to bend, sexuality can as well but doesn’t always have to be. I believe that it depends on the person. That’s a better answer than what you have given. Think more fluidly next time.

    • Sorry, I like my reality to actually make sense... What you said there might have well have been in Japanese.

    • That’s actually very racist and insulting to Japanese people because clearly I’m speaking English, you’re just too simple minded to see what I’m saying. It’s okay. But thank you for commenting!

  • Gay men usually want men. I don't know.

  • Who cares? Date who you want.

  • It's okay, but I would think that your options will be pretty limited.

  • I mean it's okay but unsure if a gay man would go for you...

  • That’s not dating that’s friendship

    • Even if I can be sexually and romantically attracted to them?

    • You might like them but they’re gay they don’t like women sexually they like dudes

    • But I’m not a woman, I declared myself as non-binary. Which means I have no gender, in my opinion. So if a person who was non-binary but have male features would still have the same outcome? Does this exclude transitional people who still wish to be declared as non-binary?

  • Um it's rare they'd like you back, but I don't see a serious issue with it

  • Sure why not

  • Yes, but as long as you are physically female, don't expect them to like you

  • Your made up gender won't help you if you get kicked in the crotch

  • There's no law against what you can want. I want to date straight women and that ain't working out either.

  • It's so confusing to me but yeah guess so. Just do what you want. I don't think we need all the labels though. I try to keep up and it still hurts my head

  • Yes.

  • nope

    • he'd have to pan, not gay, to date a "woman"

    • Question, why does he have to be specifically pan? Also, I’m not a “woman” nor a woman. I just have female features but I’m non-binary.

    • you're a "woman" on here and why do you think he'd have to be gay The world doesn't revolve around you
