What do you mean by different reasons?

Yeah in my experience men like to fetishize lesbians for the idea of multiple women and for the idea of “switching our sides”. From what I hear straight women like gay men more for the idea that they’re more comfortable with femininity and vulnerability as well as mutual attraction to men. Ironically I hear bi men have a wildly different experience and are prone to being rejected over it.

I’ve heard from several women that they really like gay porn.

I think when you ask "does anybody" anything the answer is yes.

I don't find gay sex arousing, no. But don't mind if a guy is bi, it's not a turnoff either.

My first GF was into watching gay porn and talked about gay dudes the way straight dudes talk about lesbians.

Not sure if women fetishize as much as men do.
