It depends largly on the cat. I have 2 male cats and to them I am a cat magnet. They love me and when I sit on the couch or lay on my bed they are on me like white on rice. If I sit on the couch to wach TV I have one on my right the other is on my left. It does not matter how many times I toss them on the floor they wait until I am watching TV then they are back on me trying to cush cue me into submistion.

When I lay on the bed they are in there corners sleeping. I think female cats are far more aluff and that may be what you are thinking of.

I think if you are quite and non threatining cats no mater what gender will worm up to you in a while if you are open to them. Then you cant get rid of them. They stick to you like velcro.

As I am typing this Butt head My yellow tabby is sleeping on the corner of my bed not even 2 feet away. he has not moved in the last 40 min
Male Cats just want to party.
