Fauxmo

A straight person who is friends with a lot of gay people (the majority their friends are gay), and they also advocate for gay/lesbian rights. They typically prefer homosexual friends, and have no fear of the social stigma.

That person only dates the opposite gender, but they have a lot of gay/lesbian friends that they spend most of their time with. (Some people might think a Fauxmo person is gay). Due to their association.
