Is it normal to like gay men as a straight woman?

Is it weird that I find gay men attractive?
My first sort of super obsession with a guy two years younger than me when I was 12, I saw him on social media this year and hes in a relationship with a guy.
I also had a major crush on Clay Aiken before I knew he was gay. I was 17 at the time.

I think your type is just coincidentally in the same goal park as a lot of gay men's personalities or looks (if that makes sense). Besides, loads of women are into gay men anyways, same way dudes are into lesbians. I think your normal man.

is it weird when gay men are attracted to straight men? no. they're still men.
i don't think it's their sexuality that's the issue here. maybe you're just more attracted to slightly more feminine men

No, this is pretty normal. The part of your brain that feels initial attraction doesn't really take into account the other person's sexual orientation I think.

From what you said this might also be random chance that you happened to be into two guys who are gay. As much as people like to pretend all queer guys act or dress alike, we really don't.
