I'm comfortable with people irregardless of gender.
Well, I probably have less in common with people who are one gender extreme or the other in terms of behavior.

I never get nervous but I'm not totally comfortable around *straight* women. The majority of my social interactions take place around lesbians and bi sexual women. just through exposure I've become immune to nerves around them. But I could do better around straight women.
One of the nice things about being me (There aren't that many) is that I never come across as "awkward" Me being awkward falls somewhere in between aloof and vacant. So if I do completely blow it socially nobody else notices. That doesn't help me get laid at all, it just gets me out of the lion's share of the embarrassment and humiliation that I've stumbled into over the years.
So as an answer to your question I don't have a girlfriend but my best friend is a lesbian (as I mentioned) and I'm friends with some of her ex's (Which would be horribly awkward on it's own but I also mentioned that I'm immune to nerves around them) but as far as talking to someone who might potentially sleep with me, I'm shit out of luck.

I'm a straight male, and I'm much more comfortable around women than men. I grew up more with my mother and sister than father, and fit in with my sister's friends more than making my own. All the kids in the neighborhood were girls, too.
So I'm naturally better with women than men.

I'm not... uncomfortable around them. But I can't say that conversation feels quite as natural around most of them. Probably because most women I encounter just have nothing in common with me, and it's hard to relate. It's sad, but the majority of girls at my university are kind of... boring.
Whenever I can find a member of the opposite sex whom I can relate to, social interaction is far easier.
Edit: When I like a girl, or, even worse, if she's into me, I have no idea how to act. People as chronically single as myself don't flirt very well. But I seem to be getting a bit of female attention lately, so I'm going to have to learn fast.

im 19 and i got a feeling im not gonna be "comfortable" for a little while.krazykidd said:
but when i first talk to/meet someone, i get the suave flowing lol. it seriously just gets easier after that.
They are just other people. It is different for everyone but it's not like They are evil forest witches. That being said Dragon Age: Origins taught me evil forest witches are pleasant to have around/look at.
I'm kinda uncomfortable around anyone that I don't know, or that i've just met. Better with guys, as a rule. Once i've got to know someone, gender isn't an issue at all.
