I think that the question "why do gays guys hit on straight guys online so much?" is equally relevant, although I suspect that a whole different series of impulses come into play in these instances (desire to 'turn'; wishing-for-the-forbidden-fruit; previous experience of virtual heteroflexibility leading to the conclusion that all "straight"-identifying men online may be willing to explore same-sex relations; etc. etc.).

Being a guy who hasn't subjected themselves to any sort of male-male sexual contact, I can say that I still consider myself straight/heteroflexible. I am also a guy who partakes in ALOT of Flirting and Alot of Sexually-explicit chatting.
Why do I do it? Keeping it simple, I flirt because it makes me feel good. I enjoy giving pleasure and being open to ideas. It also allows to me to explore different aspects of myself, that I wouldn't likely consider in real life. The Internet adds the being anonymous and low risk. That adds to my pleasure as well. I like the idea of being as slutty as possible, and having people not really sure of who I am.
