So any woman who does is shoehorned into a stereotype that defines her as ugly and needy, when really the opposite is true. There's nothing as liberating as being surrounded by hot men and having no self conscious anxiety, since you're not their cup of tea sexually AND that has nothing to do with who YOU are. It puts a sexy shine on ones attitude, which hopefully carries into the rest of ones life.

Being in love with a friend is a very common thing and having it be something unattainable is as well - there are many reasons other than outward sexual orientation to keep two people apart. The future I see is one where there is no longer a dividing line between sexual orientations. The youth of today seem to be a population of people open to loving whomever they want to, at least, this is what I've gathered from my little bit of exposure to this demographic, and the youth are our future. That said, I think the reason I have a handful of gay male friends that I love dearly is because they are very real, very honest people. Come to think of it, all of the people I love dearly are very real, very honest people. Titles are for books and labels are for clothes (tho, I usually have to cut them off because they irritate my skin). Let's cut off the labels and realize that we can't always get together with those we are attracted to and it isn't always because of some sexual orientation label. It's been this way for a long time and will continue, I'm sure, for a long time. This comment is based on reading your Alejandro video post as well as this article, btw. :)

There's usually at least one, if not more than one, awkward encounter.
