The Fag Hag.

Photo via lastnitesparty


Sometimes I will go out, and I will see a group of 2-5 homosexual males. In addition to this core group of homosexuals, I will see one heterosexual female. She does everything with her core group of homosexual friends–goes to relevant scene parties, hits up the trendiest gay hotspots, and even goes out to brunch with her homosexual friends. I am not sure what this means about her. I think this means she can be labeled as a “FAG HAG” (aka “FG HG”).

I am not sure what it means to be a “fag hag.” Maybe you are in a transitional point in your life. You can’t really identify with any of ur girl friends n e more, and you haven’t found the perfect man for you, so u turn to a group of homosexuals who are ‘longing’ for the same kind of dream man that u r. It seems weird when 2 homosexual males are ‘bffs’, but they don’t want to be in a relationship with one another, so they are just ‘friends who accidentally hook up sometimes, but understand that they both see themselves ending up with some1 better.’ Seems like a chill agreement.

Maybe homosexuals are just more compassionate than heterosexual males and lovers. Maybe they have more in common with females than traditional bros. Maybe they are better lovers than the traditional male. Maybe the faghag just wants some1 u can ‘open up’ 2, and talk with. It seems like it is comfortable, like u can cuddle with some1 and watch a redbox movie without him trying to ‘fuck you.’

Seems like it would be fun to be bffs with a couple of homosexuals, because then life would be ‘just like a show on Bravo.’ U could spend all day critiquing the way people look, talking about ur freshly implemented health regimen, and go out on the weekends to get ‘fucking drunk.’ I have heard that some ‘fag hags’ enjoy to ‘make out’ with their gay male friends for attention/sexual pleasure.


Not sure if it is good to ‘brand urself’ as a fag hag, or to let it organically happen over the course of 1-3 years.

Does ‘being a fag hag’ last forever? What if u get in2 a relationship? Will ur homo friends resent u/turn ur back on u?
Do u know any fag hags? What are they like?
Are fag hags always ugly, or sometimes ‘hot’?
Do u feel sad when u see a fag hag who has a ‘more to love’ type of build?
Is the faghagial relationship more likely to generate ‘authentic love’ than a traditional relationship?
Has any1 met a real life ‘gay person’ and do they act the same as they do on TV?

    fag hag: unattractive/fat girl who has a lot of gay friends to tell them they’re bootyful.

    fruit fly: attractive/cute/indie girl who has a lot of gay friends because they are fun and like to ‘binge drink,’ ‘tumble around,’ and ‘be glamourous’. also you can sleep in the same bed as them without them trying to ‘stick it in thurr bum’

    @rezlbezl_europe,

    I think the difference in our bodies make us fundamentally different. women can literally create new humans INSIDE OF THEIR BODIES. How can that not have a huge psychological effect.

    I am not saying either group is superior or inferior, I’m just saying we’re both different and equally important, in our uniqueness.

    The difference is not superficial, as you suppose. the difference is fundamental. I think any refusal to accept this obvious truth is inspired by mere ideology.

    @rezlbezl_europe, first of all, i really appreciate, that you give a smart, elaborate answer and no insults. but you cant say definitely that either the one or the other is wrong or right. the whole discussion bases on two different theories, the one is, that you are influenced by your genes and history of mankind, the other, that you are just a product of your environment. but still, even if you believe in the power of genes, you cant prove that youre their slave and let them decide for you if (now im responding to the post) you only hang out with girls or boys or queer or whatever. “You can’t really identify with any of ur girl friends n e more, and you haven’t found the perfect man for you, so u turn to a group of homosexuals who are ‘longing’ for the same kind of dream man that u r” Who says that she ever wanted to have girlfriends, who says, that she has to find a perfect man? You can’t tell me that this is her nature, and caus she cant fulfil the requirements which her gender expects from her she’s hangin out with gay boys!!

    I am currently living with a former fag hag or fruit fly in BK. Living in El Lay back in my late teens and early 20′s i had a thing for da hags, back then they had a fierce sense of style and were very hawt, maybe Parker Posey made it hip to be a fag hag. I even befriended a few gays to get to their hags. I was an Adidas wearing sk8er dude so the hags were out of my reach (remember in the 90′s they were hot). I feel that now the fag hag status is given to anyone.

    My gf is now relegated to occasionally hangin’ out with White Collar O.G.’s (old gays) and no longer considers herself a “FG HG” because their biz associates and no longer binge drinks cos’ it conflicts with yoga.

    So to answers your question the Fag Hag period does not last forever.

    Totally.

    fggt hgz usually have awesome personalities tho. It sounds retardedly cliche, but it’s true. My cousin is one and she’s fun as shit. I used to date one, too. They always tend to be on the short end of self-esteem and that’s what keeps them in that role of the fggt hag: their gaggle of fggts is non-threatening to their self-image.

    Actually, the fggt hag is encouraged to wear ‘crazy shit’ by her fggts. And so she gets to ‘get out of her head’ and do ‘zany’ things in a ‘safe’ environment where no one will ‘judge’ her too harshly.

    why so much misogyny and insulting names to women who’re friends with gays? it’s really the same as homophobia. What’s so weird about a friendship between a girl and a gay guy that you have to make special, degrading names for that?

    it really amuses me that the person who wrote this article goes into analysis of the reason why girls become “fag hags”–i think u know no sh*t, no offense, dude, just stick to analyzing ur bfs assh*le or something, leave wommen alone, Fag.

    ps: also, some transphobic comments here amuse me. so ‘crisses’ u really think women r created to make a babies and this makes a huge “psychological difference”? :] even if they can break ur face with one arm? :XXX women r like baby machines, rite? well i used 2 b a woman at least that says on my birth certificate…. but i’d beat down in the street pretty much any other dude who’d say this shitt in my fucken face. have babies out of ur assh*le, betch. u’d b missing sum teeth of u talked that in my face

    this is just 4 little fags wannabe males like “crisses” (i cause use pple like u as a gym weight probbly). the presence of male or female junk down in underwear doesn’t mean a person has “male” or “female” brain. 1st some pple r born intersexed with extra chromosomes or 2 sets of or ambiguous genitalia. even genetic females can have “male” brains (due to testosterone exposure before birth, etc) and vice versa, gay males’ brains could be formed as “female” brain predominantly (hence transsexuals). this had been proven by numerous studies and needs no further discussion from pple who doesn’t have bio or med education. the junk that’s in underwear… well that shitt can be gotten rid of… to match the brainz.
