? About behavior
Does anyone know if there are groups of homosexuals that target women? I know this sounds like ikind if a crazy question. But I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this or any referrals/references? Thanks

Re: ? About behavior
What do you mean by "target"? You mean they..... have a plan to marry st8 women in order to use them? Or do you mean something more physical - like a gang of them jumping women? Please clarify.
Thanks -

Re: ? About behavior
It sure feels that way when you discover that your partner is gay. But I have never heard of it being organized. I do know that my X created groups of Down Low men he associated with over the years like the "poker game" group, but whether they actively targeted women as a group or just singularly I have no idea.

I suspect that some bi men "target" women as a front - or a "beard"

Re: ? About behavior
I've heard people mention it as something they're suspicious of, but I've never seen any proof of it. Personally, I think we all wind up in this place because they feel too isolated and unaccepted. If they are a group, they want to be more accepted and embraced, which requires they come out of the shadows. I have no idea what targeting straight women would do for them as a group. They want to be seen as normal, healthy, loving people. Targeting doesn't serve their purposes.
I've also known gay men who were friends - they were interested in the same things in life as the rest of us - fun, good sex, finding partners, making a living, raising a family. There was never any time in their lives for f*cking with people. They were out, proud, and wanted to meet others who were the same. And then have a good life.
