Faux-Mo

A straight male who has precariously fallen into an extremely personal relationship with a homosexual (much like a male fag-hag.) He is in no way gay, but an outsider may easily mistaken him for one due to his overly affectionate actions and reckless behavior. Very foolish, touchy, and silly, often playing along with any joke or misconception an outside might make. Does not see to care at all about what others think. Basically, a borderline gay with extremely misleading tendencies and a latent curiosity with will never be pursued.

Homo: Jonathan, have you seen Shannon lately?

Faux-Mo: OMG, she's fabulous! I love her new outfit, and the shoes, oh, they're to die for... (Awkward Silence) I have to go watch football.

Homo: (Whispers) Someday... you'll be mine.
