Weird Nouveau Etiquette Question

sooo here's a good one...i have several male gay friends...some that are obviously the 'girl' and some that are obviously 'the guy...' now they are super close to me, known them forever and they were at my engagement party...when it comes to bridal showers, do i invite the 'girlier' men to join in on the women only event, or is that awkward? i feel sorta funny asking them if they want to come?

My brother was a Man of Honor and the bride mostly had male friends so the bridal shower had woman and men. He just kept it to family and close friends on her side.

so it's not awkward or weird to have two gay men show up at my shower right? i don't want them to feel out of place most of all...but i'd really like to have them there!

I don't think so and I think they'll have a lot of fun

I don't think it would be weird at all BUT I wouldn't just invite the 'girlier' one. They might get offended. I'd invite both.

I would either invite both, or neither. That way they feel that there was nopreferred treatment, and fi the 'girlie' one is interested but the other isn't... their answers will reflect that.

Haha I have the same situation. If they are your friends (regardless of gender) & you enjoy them around... I'd invite both of them!
