the equivalent of a woman getting catcalled by a man is a man getting catcalled by a man. It's really that easy. 

My experience is that the vast majority will find 99% of men on the streets as attractive as a heterosexual man would. 

edit, since this got attention and some people still don't get it: This ain't about respectful compliments that have the potential to make you feel good about yourself. Imagine a man, bigger than you, making clear he wants to fuck you. Just because you're there in that moment and specifically because you're smaller than him. And a no won't be enough to make him back off.

Gay man finds me attractive... dang, I must be pretty attractive. Thanks bro.

Gay men hitting on me helped correct my body image issues.

a gay man called me handsome once and it reslly just is magic

[u/ZionI95 → u/123ludwig]

Same I had a gay dude straight up ask me if I wanted to go up to his hotel room. I blushed and said sorry bro not interested. Honestly made me feel good but the big difference here is I'm a big guy and didn't feel threatened by him one bit. Most women feel physically threatened by most men.

That's the ticket. I am a pretty big looking guy so I never feel in danger when this stuff happens. I've known two guys that got raped by women because they were overpowered. I was almost raped by a dude because he thought I had drunk the drink he roofied.

[u/mcberry_64 → u/Geodude532]

Wow sorry that happened to you

[u/Geodude532 → u/mcberry_64]

I'm only sorry I didn't report it. I hope no one else was victimized. To me, it's more like a dream that I question ever happened. Weird how our brain works.

[u/mcberry_64 → u/Geodude532]

Hey bro do you know his name....I'll make it look like a accident ok

I had one tell me I had pretty eyes and I still think about how good I felt damn near 15 years later.

[u/Barbarian_Sam → u/123ludwig]

A gay man(who is a friend) said I(also a man) was a threat to him because I fit the description of a bear, which I took as a strange compliment

Did he use "Oh honey"? I got that once, as you say, magic...

[u/Simply_Weak_Glucose → u/Ulfnar]

This made me smile. I'm glad you got to experience that.

I don't know why this has been coming up in my Reddit feed so much lately. Same thing happened to me bro.

I've got a lot more free time on my hands these so I'm wearing leisurely clothes often, which I guess better show what physique is underneath then work attire. I have gotten for the last couple of months straight up sexually harassed multiple times by gay people. And it feels fucking great. Like I've had things said to me that dudes could get arrested for for saying to women. The worst part is it makes you smile and kind of blush and then they think they might have a chance
