History Main / GuyonGuyIsHot

* ''Webcomic/MenageA3'' uses this for its audience with [[CampGay Dillon]] and [[BiTheWay Matt]] as an early [[YaoiGuys homosexual couple]] and more than enough [[{{Fanservice}} random male homosexual couples making out]]. (Note that the comic ruthlessly avoids any hint of [[DoubleStandard double standards]]; it provides guy-on-guy, girl-on-girl, and heterosexual fanservice.) Then there are the in-universe examples: [[YaoiFangirl Zii]] is quite obsessed with [[BoysLove yaoi]] (though, to be fair, she does like bisexual and lesbian porn as well), and is sometimes distracted by those random gay couples on the street (it's UsefulNotes/{{Montreal}} -- quite the boho city), while [=DiDi=] [[http://www.menagea3.net/d/20101202.html doesn't seem to dislike guy-on-guy action either.]] Straight guy Gary's occasional tendency to get distracted by the gay guys around him seems to be more of a mixture of naive curiosity and abstract aesthetics.

[[caption-width-right:350:I daresay Miyabi over there is [[YaoiFangirl enjoying watching this.]]]]

Just as often, though, there is a heavy DoubleStandard, and on both sides; straight men thinking GirlOnGirlIsHot tends to be dismissed as normal behavior, whereas the female enjoyment of Guy-on-Guy will be treated as a perversion (see YaoiFangirl). Or, in the other direction, some women will proudly declare their fascination with gay guys doing it while [[TheUnfairSex denouncing men who eroticize lesbians as exploitative perverts]]. In any case, the trope is also frequently a magnet for closeted/unaware trans people who seek to identify with the characters.

** On the forums, [[ItMakesSenseInContext when]] asked, [[WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick Lindsay Ellis]] responded that she enjoys gay porn but can't stand it when it has a [[PornWithPlot plot]].

* In the ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' episode "[[Recap/SouthParkS3E5TweekVsCraig Tweek vs. Craig]]", P.C. Principal and Wendy host a student assembly that introduces the students to {{Yaoi|Genre}}. When the students are shown drawings of Craig and Tweek engaged in homoerotic activities (all of which, it should be noted, were real works of fan-art made by viewers of the show), all of the girls respond with "Awww."

* Quoting the infamous fanfic ''FanFic/MyImmortal'': "don't u fik gay guyz r lik so hot!". The Franchise/HarryPotter characters like Harry and Draco Malfoy [[AdaptationalSexuality were turned]] into bisexual men just for them to enter in a relationship between themselves and protagonist, Ebony Darkness Dementia Way.

* ''FanFic/MyImmortal'': "don't u fik gay guyz r lik so hot!"
* ''Webcomic/AxisPowersHetalia'' fanfic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11886910/1/Gankona-Unnachgiebig-Unità Gankona, Unnachgiebig, Unità]]'': [[ThePeepingTom France, Spain, and Prussia]] would ''definitely'' agree with this. Same with [[YaoiFangirl Hungary]].
* ''Series/{{ER}}'' fanfiction of this variety is mostly written by women, indicating that she's either expressing fantasies of her own or tapping into those of her readers. Several versions have the men's copulation being observed by one or two women, who express this sentiment.
-->'''Abby''' (to Luka, after walking in on him and Carter): I would be mad... if it weren't the hottest thing I've ever seen.
* In ''Literature/{{Hurog}}'' fanfics, this trope is often used to solve the problem that Ward has a female love interest, who is much too likable to demote her to RonTheDeathEater or something like that, but [[TheWoobie Oreg]] is such a lonely, tortured guy and really deserves to find love. And [[IntimatePsychotherapy heal from his PTSD]]. Of course, Ward would never cheat on his girlfriend… but if ''she'' tells him that she's okay with it if she's allowed to watch… OneTrueThreesome ensues.

* A large part of the appeal of ''Manga/DeathNote'' to many fangirls is its CastFullOfPrettyBoys, two of which spend several months handcuffed together.

** There's also the infamous accidental kiss between Naruto and Sasuke. You could almost ''hear'' the simultaneous clacking of one thousand [[YaoiFanGirl fangirls]] typing one thousand [[SlashFic Slash Fics]] at the same time.

In the West, we are raised to believe that GirlOnGirlIsHot and the media typically shows this because MostWritersAreMale. No questions! But in the East, it is the SpearCounterpart Guy On Guy Is Hot that is the sexual stimulant. While not as strong in the West (despite the growing number of SlashFic) the way its SisterTrope is, it is the existing mentality in much of East and South East Asia. It's the reason for the BoysLoveGenre and the times when HoYay is played intentionally as a {{fetish}}. Some authors adhere to this or at least acknowledge its existence, and thus we get scenes of [[{{Fanservice}} naked and half-naked men]] [[MudWrestling wrestling]] in [[Webcomic/SkinHorse mud]], [[Webcomic/{{Shortpacked}} jello]] or oil.

-->[[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments "All this alpha-male posturing. Why don't the two of you just fuck each other and get it over with? I could watch."]]

* ''{{Series/Oz}}'': There are countless Internet spaces devoted to (mostly female) fans poring over the most [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments squee-worthy]] moments between Beecher and Keller.

* In ''Film/PlanB'', Bruno and Pablo [[GayBravado jokingly]] tell their friend Ana say they're boyfriends who are madly in love and Ana eggs them into kissing each other in front of her to prove it, adding that she's [[GirlOnGirlIsHot kissed girls]] before for other guys' enjoyment.

->''"I have this "Jules and Jim" fantasy, definitely--you know, two men and a woman in love. And I remember reading in a magazine that the high you get from falling in love only lasts about four years. So with two men, you might be able to make it last eight."''

There's in some cases an element of ButNotTooGay to this trope: [[AllWomenAreLustFul women may enjoy watching men wrestle and make out]] but [[AllMenArePerverts unlike men in the reverse scenario]] it may be implied that they wouldn't find it sexy if the situation were to "escalate" (however, large portions of fanfiction.net, Tumblr, and even a cursory visit to [=DeviantArt=] and Pixiv suggest that this is '''not''' true).

* There was an ad for Jawbone cellphone accessories a few years ago in which a woman in a bar is annoyed by the obnoxious behavior of a rugby club that had just entered. Luckily, when she activated her Jawbone headset, it blocked out all extraneous noise… including the crowd's reaction when [[NotDistractedByTheSexy two of the rugby guys started aggressively sucking face while peeling off their clothes]]. The best part? All the other actors present were actual rugby players who didn't know what was going to happen until the final shoot. Their reactions were priceless.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2fe8iS6v6g This]] Butterfinger cups commercial promotes [[AThreesomeIsHot bisexual mmf threesomes]] as a way to spice up a marriage.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fli3zzbrBEE This]] Guiness commercial shows a bisexual [[AThreesomeIsHot MMMF foursome]].

* For once played for drama in ''{{Manga/Ooku}}''. When Shogun Tsunayoshi is developing GodSaveUsFromTheQueen tendencies, she orders two of her male concubines to have sex for her entertainment, thinking they won't mind since she knows them to be lovers. They're so insulted at being used for voyeuristic thrills that they attempt to commit seppuku, giving her a salutory shock.

* [[YaoiFangirl Meirin]] of ''Manga/BlackButler'' certainly thinks this. Though with the amount of {{Bishonen}} and HoYay that occurrs it's not like you could blame her. The series also has an abundance of real life yaoi fangirls.

* One of the OVA for ''Manga/FairyTail'', set during the ''Grand Magic Games'' arc, takes place in a huge water park. Juvia is trying to convince Gray to go on the Love-Love waterslide with her, which is basically a tunnel of love in waterslide form, but Natsu accidentally knocks Gray and Leon onto the slide instead. Juvia is suddenly fascinated by her main crush embracing another guy on a romance attraction. In reality, the two are just clinging to each other because of the terrifying speed of the slide. Of course, [[GirlOnGirlIsHot Juvia herself ends up on the slide with Lucy later on]]; the OVA is pretty much one long ShipTease.

* PlayedForLaughs in ''Manga/KaguyaSamaLoveIsWar'' when a series of coincidences make it seem like Shirogane is in a homosexual relationship with a crossdressing Hayasaka. Fujiwara visibly gets a nosebleed upon hearing this.
* In ''Anime/AnimeGataris'', the Anime Club is saved from disbanding after a substantial number of girls in the audience vote in favor of them. Why? After Kai Kai makes a passionate speech in favor of keeping the club, Nakano (the school's resident prettyboy) helps him up ''very'' intimately after his glasses fall off ([[TheGlassesGottaGo showing off Kai Kai's pretty eyes in the process]]).

'''Bobby''': [[LiteralMinded Seein'? Uh I see a lot of girls… I see I lot of guys too]].\\

-->'''Strax:''' Well… it ''could'' be sport…
* In the ''Series/{{Farscape}}'' episode "Won't Get Fooled Again", one of the many crazy scenes involves a CampGay D'Argo propositioning John. Apparently Chiana wants to watch…

* One of the [[PatientOfTheWeek Patients of the Week]] on ''Series/GreysAnatomy'' was a gay soldier. Once his boyfriend comes to visit him they are alone and proceed to make out. Meredith Grey walks by, and stares at them with much interest.

-->'''Jack''': We'll have a steak, watch a movie… you like gay porn, right?\\

-->'''Karen''': I haven’t rooted this hard for a gay couple to get together on TV since Series/{{Frasier}} and Niles.\\

* Music/BritneySpears [[TakeOurWordForIt is suggesting]] a [[AThreesomeIsHot bisexual mmf threesome]] as well a bisexual mmmf foursome in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7MxJecTy3M "3"]]:

* TabletopGame/TwilightSparklesSecretShipficFolder… well, there's the "My First Slash" goal, the "I'm Not Gay I Swear" goal, the "Quite" goal, and then there's the pictures of "Life Threatening Illness" and "They fight crime" and then there's… basically, the game all but states Twilight loves this trope.

* Nina from ''VideoGame/FireEmblemFates'' is the resident YaoiFangirl whose wild fantasies will take flight whenever she sees two men so much as talking to each other and wishing they were far more intimate than just being friends. Her SpearCounterpart is Soleil, though she really likes to be on the receiving end of GirlOnGirlIsHot unlike the opposite-gender shy Nina.

* In ''Webcomic/{{Exiern}}'' apparently Peonie used to find Guy on Guy Hot, until she imagined it [[http://www.exiern.com/?p=1033 involving her father]].

* ''Webcomic/MenageA3'' uses this for its audience with [[CampGay Dillon]] and [[BiTheWay Matt]] as an early [[YaoiGuys homosexual couple]] and more than enough [[{{Fanservice}} random male homosexual couples making out]]. (Note that the comic ruthlessly avoids any hint of [[DoubleStandard double standards]]; it provides guy-on-guy, girl-on-girl, and heterosexual fanservice.) Then there are the in-universe examples: [[YaoiFangirl Zii]] is quite obsessed with [[BoysLove yaoi]] (though, to be fair, she does like bisexual and lesbian porn as well), and is sometimes distracted by those random gay couples on the street (it's UsefulNotes/{{Montreal}}--quite the boho city), while [=DiDi=] [[http://www.menagea3.net/d/20101202.html doesn't seem to dislike guy-on-guy action either.]] Straight guy Gary's occasional tendency to get distracted by the gay guys around him seems to be more of a mixture of naive curiosity and abstract aesthetics.

* ''Webcomic/StickyDillyBuns'', a [[SpinOff spin-off]] from ''Webcomic/MenageA3'' (see above), features the naive, virginal Ruby, who is doomed to a rapid education in life, including, early on, exposure to the sight of two gay guys having sex. She subsequently suffers flashbacks to the scene, and rapidly evolves into a YaoiFangirl (somewhat to her own confusion).

* This trope is a large part of ''Webcomic/AxisPowersHetalia'''s raison d'être. [[LoveableSexManiac France]] spends most of his time stripping and/or groping the other male characters, Italy has a habit of glomping or sleeping with Germany [[InnocentFanserviceGirl while naked]], and the series even has its own resident YaoiFangirl, Hungary.

* [[FanFic/MyImmortal "don't u fik gay guyz r lik so hot!"]]

* This trope is the basis of about 99.9% of all SlashFic.
** ''Series/{{ER}}'' fanfiction of this variety is mostly written by women, indicating that she's either expressing fantasies of her own or tapping into those of her readers. Several versions have the men's copulation being observed by one or two women, who express this sentiment.
--->'''Abby''' (to Luka, after walking in on him and Carter): I would be mad. . .if it weren't the hottest thing I've ever seen.

** Also Harmony in "Crush":

* ''Series/DoctorWho'', "Deep Breath": Strax scans Clara's subconscious and finds images of what he generously interprets as "young men playing sport."

* In the ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' episode "Tweek x Craig'', P.C. Principal and Wendy host a student assembly that introduces the students to {{Yaoi|Genre}}. When the students are shown drawings of Craig and Tweek engaged in homoerotic activities (all of which, it should be noted, were real works of fan-art made by viewers of the show), all of the girls respond with "Awww."
