A straight person outwardly welcoming flirtatious behavior from homosexuals of the same gender in order to receive validation and entertainment. Will often play the line of being flirtatious in return, but once it becomes physical, the gaybaiter will retract and continually assert their heterosexuality to "prevent any confusion".

A pick me is a woman that is willing to do anything for male approval. She will embarrass or throw other women under the bus to achieve this goal. The unfortunate thing about a pick me is usually the men they are trying to seek approval from are of poor quality and treat women badly, leaving little real benefit for the pick me.

Gay-baiting is what corporations does during only in Pride month.
