One user noted that some pursue straight men due to an 'illusion of greater masculinity,' seeking traditional masculinity over femininity.
Another theory suggests that some gay men feel they are so desirable that straight men might experiment with their sexuality because of them.
Several commenters mentioned feeling conditioned to misinterpret straight men's kindness as attraction, confusing courtesy with interest.
One insight shared is that, due to past negative interactions with straight men, gay men can read friendliness as possible romantic interest.
