for girls around them though, they're obviously gay. Does having them around and into you have a similar affect as having other women around you when you go out?
Now then to address your actual question. This could possibly be helpfull but proceed with caution. Something is triggering the gay guys gaydar so if you hang out too much or are too buddy-buddy with the gays, women will naturally assume you are gay too. A few chicks may take that as a challenge to "convert" you by taking you home and banging you but most will worry about where your dick has been and not take you seriously.
If you are shooting for some social proof/pre-selection you need to make it clear to both your gay buddys and to chicks that you are a straight guy that is very open minded and free-thinking and that you are secure enough in your sexuality that are OK with hanging out with gay guys.
You can also use the gay guys to help you dress and groom in a manner that makes you look your best and have them talk you up to their chick buddies. Those things are of value and can help.
All in all it can be benificial just proceed with caution and make sure that both the gays and the women are taking you seriously and respecting you as a hetero male and are not thinking that you are gay or possibly bi.
