And sometimes they are drawn to relationships with other men who are not
similar to themselves but also different from their preferred target :)) .
I know quite a few like that (my partner and myself to begin with ;)))) ).
It's actually the case for all gay men I've met until now :)) .

I agree with your taste here. I can't see what's special with the huy
playing Legolas either (just like I've never understood what they had with
David Duchovny ;))) . But Michael T. Weiss - Jarod in "The Pretender" - ...
Yummy! :))) ).

In this case I have to disagree. All lesbian couples I've ever met could as
well have been sisters, so alike they looked. On the other hand, they often
have very divergent characters :) . Makes for interesting couples :)) .
