I was listening to an interview with Jay of Joyfully Jay (”M/M reviews and more”) on the podcast Smart Bitches Trashy Reads  and she mentioned a wonderful alternative to the phrase “gay for you” which is popular in m/m romance circles to describe a situation where a straight man falls for another man. I find this phrase offensive since it implies that one might just become gay, and ignores the possibility of bisexuality and that there are shades of gray in terms of sexual orientation. Jay instead proposed “Out for You” which I really like. The “straight” guy may have had feelings toward men in the past but this person makes him willing to out himself (at least to himself) to act on it.
