The reason I asked I have seen a few shows where the gay character says something like she looks so good I am considering going back to women or something of that nature. So is there a famous or any woman for that matter that you have seen that looks so good she would turn you straight? And if yes, who?
While an interesting question, my first thought is that your thinking gay guys go gay because no women is good enough for em. Maybe “good enough” is the wrong phrase, but you get my point. And all it takes for them to “go straight” is to find the right woman. But that is just my reaction to the question.
Another question is, is there any guys out there that would make you go gay? I sure can’t think of any. 
This question demonstrates a deep lack of understanding about homosexuality. My understanding (I’m heterosexual, by the way) is that people’s psyches are “hard-wired” to be attracted to one sex or the other (or in the case of bisexuals, both). This has nothing to do with abundance or lack of attractive people. It has everything to do with the kind of people an individual is attracted to.
I’ll put that in simpler terms:
Wildest Bill, is there a famous or any man for that matter that you have seen that looks so good he would turn you gay?
My guess, Bill, is that you have difficulty understanding the question, because you are a typical heterosexual male, and as such you are simply not attracted to other males. Even an extremely good-looking male has no effect on you, because you are a heterosexual male.
That’s typical, okay, and there’s nothing wrong with that. But I hope that it illustrates to you that most gay men are attracted to other men, and if they see a woman, it is simply irrelevant how good-looking that woman is.
I, myself, have said that several times (and often about oddball celebrities… to whit, Bea Arthur… But then, she’s more masculine than I am… so…erm…nevermind)
But it has been my experience that this is largely an attempt at wit and trying to be complimentary towards the woman involved.
mm
No maidian I did not mean that way. I posted it because of what I said about seeing it on TV. And I thought it would be interesting to see the answers.
Hmmm… Sorry, Bill, I hope it didn’t sound like I came down on you too hard. Yeah, as a reaction to those lines on TV, you’re asking a legitimate question, and I suppose my displeasure should be directed at those writers for perpetuating such stereotypes.
OTOH, I can see Grither’s point about being complimentary.
Well, WildBill, unless you want to tell us that Brad Pitt makes you wish you were Jennifer Aniston, this question is entirely nonsensical.
The character was joking.
Example: I have been know to say that k.d.lang makes me wish I was a lesbian. This is a joke, since I couldn’t possibly afford the sex reassignment, and the thought makes me gag–and not in a good way 
.
Putting my original feelings about the question aside since they may be unfounded, I will say that my gay male roommate JOKINGLY said something similar about Renee Russo after seeing The Thomas Crowne Affair.
Reminds me of a line Sam Malone said on “Cheers”, when he was bragging to Diane that he’d resisted the temptation of another woman (and, of course, overlooking Diane’s ire that he was simply with another woman) (paraphrased): “She was gorgeous. No man would turn her down. And not too many women would, either.” :D:D
Perhaps a more interesting question is:
Are there any women that you would consider having sex with?
I agree. Esprix already admitted he’d rather have sex with Claudia Schiffer than ::shudder:: Ernest Borgnine.
The other thing, and I shudder to admit this:
An old girlfriend of mine thought Brad Pitt was “just so hot” in Legends of the Fall. It was Brad Pitt this, Brad Pitt that. Even during innapropriate moments.
It really ticked me off.
I started to hate Brad Pitt.
I started to hate that smug little pretty-boy so much I wanted to hurt him. I wanted to hurt him bad.
I wanted to beat him up and perform a hateful sexual act upon him without the benefit of lubrication.
Of course this would ruin him for life. He would cry anytime he was forced into the company of another man. No woman would respect him. He’s probably get fat and do drugs and become an empty shell of a man.
Than my girlfriend wouldn’t think he was so hot any more!
Would she?!?
Would she?!?
::ahem::
Anyway, we broke up and I’m all better now.
Still, there’s something about Brad Pitt that fills me with a sadistic sexual rage.
Hmmm.
Maybe I shouldn’t have shared that.
Heh. heh. heh. Just kidding.
really.
Closest thing I can come to that is saying “If I were lesbian, she’s who I’d go for…” which I use mostly to refer to one of my good friends. Hum… and Angelina Jolie.
Hell, I would rather have sex with Claudia Schiffer than Ernest Borgnine. Ernest Borgnine is like yucky! :).
Anyway, as to the OP, as has been said before, the characters were joking. There’s no woman that would turn me straight (a doper in chat many moons ago kept asking me to give bisexuality at least, a shot, since she didn’t understand that being gay, I have no interest in women (She couldnt see why i wouldnt find women attractive)).
I would too! (And I’m straight!)
My twist to the question was:
As a gay man, are there ANY women you find sexually attractive?
Your choice of the phrase “turn you straight” bothers me. I’m gay, but I will not rule out the possibility of a heterosexual encounter. (Please don’t tell Cajun Man I said this.) One encounter does not an orientation make.
The question has come up before, but it was addressed not only to gays. There was Who Wouldja Do, If You Swing The Other Way?, in which I said RuPaul as a goof, and Jeri Ryan as a serious answer. There was also Only Bisexuals Can’t Play… My favorite post from that thread (after someone said “Leonard diCaprio, I suppose…”) is TennHippie’s second reply “Oh, DiCaprio, sure! I thought I had to pick a MAN. Brad Pitt, too, then…”
“As a gay man, are there ANY women you find sexually attractive?” Sure.
The answer to the original question, as worded, is no one. (Although, if Ernest Borgnine were the only man left, that would “turn me straight”.)
and my version of an answer to this question is kd lang. In a heartbeat. Ooooooo, do me, honey!

Man, some people get so touchy. It was just a goof ball question. The poster could either say “yes” and name the person or “no” they would not go straight for anybody.
See I will show you what I mean. No satan there is not man out there that would turn me gay. I just find chicks just way too attractive. NOW just my wife(I find this a lot cheaper. )
But in all fairness I have always wondered in the back of my mind that maybe one of the reasons that some dudes are gay is because of some girl that was so mean it turned the guy against women. It is just a thought. Is there any merit in it?
In a word, no.
As a matter of fact, I’ve had much better relationships in my life with females than I have with (most) males and growing up, was always one of those boys who were always fraternizing with “the enemy.”
Heh. Of course, perhaps this just opens up another can of worms: Do y’all think you’re straight because of your dysfunctional relationships with females?
