What is Man crush?

Respect, admiration and idolization of another man. Non-sexual. Celebrities, athletes and rock stars are often the object of the man crush.

You can not have a man crush on a friend of yours. That is simply a strong friendship.

Two possible conditions for determining if you have a man crush are:

1. Badly wanting to be that man.
2. If your man crush approached your significant other and began hitting on her, you would excuse yourself and let him have her, at least temporarily.

I have a man crush on Sidney Crosby. I would likely sell my soul to be him and if he wanted to nail my girlfriend, I'd compliment him on his awesomeness and excuse myself.

Man crush - meaning

Noun.

When a heterosexual man has intense admiration for another man, to the point that it seems like sexual attraction (but it's not). This is usually a submissive-dominant relationship, since the person with the man crush will usually do or say anything to win the respect of (or a high-five from) the crushee.

Person 1: Jay's not here, he's off playing one-on-one basketball with Frank.

Person 2: I thought Jay hated sports.

Person 1: Man crush...

Person 2: Ah, say no more.

Man crush - slang

A strong and extremely complicated positive emotion that a straight male feels towards another male. It is by no means homosexual, although it could possibly involve some degree of sexual attraction. This is not the type of sexual attraction that one would actually pursue; it is merely a complex sort of desire out of "fantasy" that is driven by jealousy and/or great admiration.

A 'man crush' can basically be described as not a homosexual lust, but a human lust.

You know that one football player who's a senior with the perfect skin, the perfect smile, the dark short hair, the soothing voice, the easygoing and fun attitude, and the perfectly tan and fit and muscular body that has all the girls on campus going crazy? I mean, c'mon, what guy DOESN'T have a man crush on him? He's perfect... It's so unfair... LOL

Man crush

The dude that you have a crush on.

Something about his spirit makes him my third man crush so far this week. I'm glad I just like dudes, otherwise I'd want to fuck everything I see if I liked both sexes.
