Here is an expression I won't use about someone unless they use it to describe themselves because I feel it is somewhat pejorative: "Fag hag" - to descrive a (close) female friend of a gay man.
I don't mind "fag stag", the male equivalent, because the image of the stag is a positive one, compared with the image of a "hag" of being old and hackit.
However, I know some women that really like the title. Personally, I'd rather have a more positive phrase to use, but I've not found one.

A fagstag is a sexual opportunist he realises that single straight women tend to hang around gay men (although he cannot fathom out why, but then neither can I), so therefore all he needs to do is hang around with a couple of gay guys and women will come up and talk to him, without him even having to buy them drinks.

I think you are right, but that only explains why they prefer our company to that of straight men. However they also seem to prefer our company to that of other women, or at least some do, but why?

It makes sense. It makes bonding with males a possibility without the threat, on an intellectual, emotional level which doesn't need to be made physical or sexual, although, I'm sure, there can be banter from both parties, but just for the fun of it.

Oooh Fred, I think I know one of the reasons why. Women among themselves can be all "bitch", "scream", "throw hissy fits" and "bite", "scratch your eyes out"... and if they don't do it literally, they do it behind your back. The violence is real and it can be as hurtful, if not more so than male violence.So I guess some women prefer male frankness to bitchiness. We can really be the ideal middle man.
