"Two girlfriends will only end up fighting with each other, but twenty girlfriends will become competitive, and the target of their rage will be directed toward each other, not me. Always works for me."

Someone who's mostly straight or gay, with one exception. It's often separated into three categories:
Sole Exception: The character in question has a one-off attraction to that person that transcends their sexual preference. This is based on mutual compatibility, or otherwise emotional attraction(this is similar to Demisexuality).
Even the Gays/Straights Want Them: The target of attraction is presented as being physically attractive enough to transcend the sexual preferences of people, not just the attracted character.
Closet Key: The exception gradually becomes the rule for that character (this not being a subversion as such as the trope applies at the beginning of the relationship and is seen as responsible for the gradual reveal of the character's sexuality/gradual transition of their gender preference).

Not to be confused with Harem Genre, a genre of Japanese media that sometimes heavily relies on this trope. A common reaction from the man when a Harem plot begins and women start fighting for his attention. He might either think like a Celibate Hero, that the gratuitous quantity of boobs he is forced to see every day are just a bother, (comically missing the point that he is in an enviable situation) or see them as an obstacle between him and the girl he truly likes, or he may just find them annoying for one reason or another. A more likely reason, plot-wise, is the fact that the male lead cannot reciprocate all the girls' feelings without seeming to the audience to be cruel, manipulative, and misleading to the girls. So the far easier solution is to make him oblivious to their affection.
"Well, I'm running down the road trying to loosen my load,
I've got seven women on my mind.
Four that wanna own me, two who wanna stone me,
One says she's a friend of mine."
-Eagles, "Take It Easy"
George:... Well, that's an Unwanted Harem if I've ever seen one.
