Thank you for pointing out that there are guys who like QaF, we just don't squee about it as much. (And yes, for your tally I'm queer.)
I like the positive spin you put on the next to last paragraph: the "double the attraction" and "no element of jealousy". I get very tired of seeing the "reason" put forth by most psychologists; i.e. "young women who like boy-kissing are afraid of men and sex and watching men act in more emotional female roles reassures their anxieties about their future marriages." And if this sounds like something I've dredged up from the 50's, I assure you not only was I taught this in college about ten years ago, but I've heard it repeated by 'experts' many times since then.
On a different topic, I love your mood pic. It's his face from my all time favorite picture. Have you seen the entire original picture? (not the photoshoped version with angel wings and a halo) If you have do you know if it is online? I've wanted to post it, but my copy is in a book and I have no way to scan it.
