I've known from quite a young age that I was gay. Men just excited me that little bit more and I never had an urge to go after women the way my straight friends did. I do however find myself far more obsessed with the female form than the male. I look at a male celebrity and think, sure, their good looking, but I have no connection with them. Their strangers and therefore I do not appreciate their beauty in the slightest. It's the same with male models. I understand why they may be selected to wear clothes as they aren't hideous but they do not excite me at all. Even men I know that are attractive do not peak my interest unless I have some sort of relationship with them already, be it even the slightest of encounters. Perhaps I'm not very shallow and appreciate personality over looks. It is true that I am rarely instantly attracted to someone. It is almost always a gradual attraction coupled with me getting to know them better.
Females on the other hand do strike a nerve with me instantly. I could pass a woman in the street that is pretty and not be able to help but stare! (I think this is how I have successfully managed to stay closeted for so long!) Friends of mine that are females I will find incredibly hot but never in a sexual way. They never turn me on but I will be far more impressed by their looks than by any man's.
When I look at a female celebrity I do see the beauty and my attraction to them is very strong but again I am not turned on. It's quite confusing but part of me thinks it is just true that females are more gentle on the eye's anyway. I don't know if this is normal but from the few gay-orientated forums I have visited online, most gay men seem repulsed with seeing a woman next to an attractive man, but I think the complete opposite!
I've probably explained this very badly but oh well... :)
P.S. Famous woman I'm a little bit obsessed with...
Blake Lively (previously mentioned...)
Selena Gomez
Mila Kunis
Scarlett Johanssen
aaaand I can't think of any others at the moment. I'm sure their are more though!

This is intriguing. I feel the complete opposite: I don't care about women's looks at all. As for men, I'm fascinated by their looks until I get to know them. Then I can't 'see' their looks anymore and only see their personality shine through.
Normal doesn't exist.
I guess normal doesn't exist. I mean it doesn't concern me that I find women's looks more interesting I just think it's probably unusual. Saying that I have little experience of gay men's opinion of women.
Thanks for commenting! I appreciate it. :)
