Bill Gates…as long as there was no promissory estoppel beforehand, it only lasted .000000018 seconds, and he gave me complete, irrevocable power of attorney.

Cameron Diaz. Adorable and not very girly. A definite winner. And if she wasn’t available, I take either Drew Barrymore or Janeane Garofalo. See, the same underlying thing… they’d HAVE to be fun. 😛

Martha Stewart.

What? She’s rich, not bad looking, she cooks.

What else is there?

I named her in the “5 people you’d get a pass from your SO to be with” thread not so long ago, but she’s so cute, I’ll say it again…

Björk!

If I can’t have her, I guess I’ll take Ani DiFranco.

Why do guys always mention unpleasant prostate exams in threads about being gay? I don’t like pap smears or associated examing one bit, but that doesn’t mean I’m uninterested in sex _there_.

IMHO, I think part of it has to do with how uncomfortable guys are with the entire gay thing. Most of us won’t ever admit to even being indifferent to something that could be construed in the least bit gay. I think females are more open. Once again, I think it’s being demonstrated in this thread with some guys not coming out and having a sense of humor about themselves.

On second thought, don’t take anything I say seriously. I don’t even know what the hell I’m saying half the time. Maybe that’s why I lurk so much. How 'bout that Leo DiCaprio?

If I _had_ to go gay, like, if heterosexuality no longer existed:

**Queen Latifah**

She’s too cute.
