Loves to go shopping for shoes. Is sexy and fabulous. Always around to go to the club. What other stereotypes do you have about gay best friends? Because they’re all in the video for Heven’s single “Gay Best Friend,” which, while a few months old, definitely needs a sassy makeover.

I’m sorry, this is just awful. It’s not even fun.

See this is exactly why I have so few female friends. Seems like a lot of women only want gay guys around to act like living, breathing fashion advice columns, and be a cute little pet for them to take out and show off to their girlfriends.

Fag hags(or I guess we are calling them fruit flies now) annoy me, and I am not even a dude. IDK, just something about them. Half the time they fall for the gay guy, or wind up being these desperate rejects from the straight social circles, or want to be lesbians but can’t quite pull it off…the list goes on and on, and this paints a perfect picture of why they suck.

I saw that last year, why post it now?!

This is awful and just plain offensive!!

Well, for what it’s worth, most straight women have equally demeaning ideas about their straight guys too. An accessory, can get them things they want, etc. Women are people, and as such, are unfortunately prone becoming captivated with mediocre bullshit ideas.

Why?

The 3 white girls get a white gay best friend.
The 3 black girls get a black gay best friend.
On the nose.

@Shofixti: That’s basically how it is in real life, no?

Not all women with gay friends think this way, you know. I find this video and the stereotypes and ideas in it highly annoying too.

I have plenty of str8 female friends, but I refuse to be the “gayBFF” after several experiences where I was expected to compensate some how for how lousy their relationships were with their guy/husband or other str8 women.
“Dear Abby” had it right: don’t marry or date or get too close to someone who doesn’t have friends.
The more *interesting* topic to me is the close friendships that [too rarely?] happen between a str8 guy & a gay one. Of the 4 people I’m closest with, 2 are hetero males. Both guys are comfortable in their own sexuality & we do have many interests in common. Anyone else?

People on this site need to chill out. The girl is not speaking for all of humanity, merely paying an homage to a part of the queer culture that she loves. Calm down and feel the love! And if you don’t think masculine gays get enough representation, I would remember that its the queens, trans, fems, and butch lesbians that have suffered some of the worst abuse, and have also been some of the biggest activists because they couldn’t pass like holier-than-thou str8 acters. If you want to change the image then come out, and be you, and love others for being themselves.
