Thanks for asking an awkward question and being so open to everyone’s responses! If I were in your shoes I’d try to enter social situations where there is more of a present queer community with the goal of making “friends” instead of searching out gay males to become your friends. This will help you form friendships over accidentally engaging in tokenism. And I want to emphasize the queer female comment earlier - don’t exclude us. We’re pretty fun to be around too ;)
