Debate: What Do We Call Our Totally Rad Straight Boys?

Well c - munchers, I am sure this is not the first time this debate has been opened, and I am sure it will not be the last. I was talking to some fellow boiz on Facebook earlier, and the topic came up of what to call our male buddies who happen to like like women, but are perfectly cool being just friends with lesbians.
Well, gay men have the Fag Hag.

Now, since this term has slowly but surely become synonymous with not straight girls who simply have gay guys as friends, but with slightly(or more than slightly) overweight, socially awkward, desperate straight women who just hang around a bunch of gays because they struck out with their own community socially and romantically, they have adopted an alternative term, the Fruit Fly.

This one tends to refer to the perfectly normal straight girls who happen to have a few gay men in their friend circle.

So what are we to call our straight guy friends, lesbos?

seems to be a somewhat acceptable term; there is even a column on AfterEllen entitled Lesbros. But it doesn't seem to have caught on with everyone like "Fag Hag" and "Fruit Fly" have for the straight women who latch on to gay men. Some people say "Fag Stag." But that doesn't make much sense, because that could easily be straight men who hang out with gay men(and more than likely is). One of the lovely bois in my new favorite Facebook group came up with "Stud Bud." 

So whataya think, dykes? I am sure our awesome straight boys are so sad that they don't have a special label.

So let's vote on a label for them! Lesbro, Stud Bud, Fag Stag, or anything else you'd like to consider! Let's give our boys a name!

Myth #2: We Just Haven't Found the Right Man.


Told ya  part of the last myth was a story for another day.  Well, wait no more, for that day has arrived!  While most lesbians will happily befriend a straight man, THIS

just isn't what rocks our world. End of story. Get it?

 When you start spewing ignorance about how we just need to experience you and then all will be well, we are likely to never talk to you again. Why, you ask? Are we unable to just give you a chance? The answers to those are simple: it isn't about you. Lesbians don't need "the right man." There is no right man. If there were, we wouldn't be LESBIANS.See where I am going with this? I hope so. I understand that this can ruffle feathers and hurt fragile egos. But hey, sometimes, the truth hurts.



The thing is THIS

is what does it for us. Nothing, not even the most perfect man in the world, will ever change that.You know why, because, while there may be some dudes out there who are damn near close to perfect, NONE of them are perfect for us.
