Why are pheromones christened as 'social hormones'?

Pheromones are chemicals that are emitted/secreted by animals that trigger a social response in other animals of the same species. This is why they are "social hormones"- hormones affect behavior, and pheromones cause different social behaviors. There are many different types of pheromones, such as alarm pheromones (e.g. aphids release it when attacked by a predator and it causes them to fly away), food trail pheromones (e.g. ants lay a trail from the nest to where the food is), and sex pheromones (e.g. males secrete it which arouses females around them), among others. In all of these cases, some kind of social behavior is triggered by the releasing of the pheromones.

Can gay men use some women's pheromones to attract men?

Firstly, women secrete their pheromones in urine and coating yourself in women's urine probably isn't a good way to get a guy. Secondly (though I may be wrong on this one) I think gay men, straight men, lesbians and straight women all release different pheromones, so a straight woman's pheromones mainly attract straight men, a lesbian's mainly attract other lesbians, a gay's mainly attract other gays and a straight guy's mainly attract straight women. Your pheromones should attract some gay guys and women's pheromones would actually lessen the effect and gain you the attentions of straight guys or lesbians, depending on the woman you got the pheromones from. Trust your own pheromones and good luck finding someone!
