Are straight males too driven by sex to ever be just friends with a woman? | |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 20860748 Since when are women "no strings attached" ? You'd be surprised. Enlighten us op |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 20860748 Since when are women "no strings attached" ? You'd be surprised. Enlighten us op A lot of straight woman have, shall we say, evolved - and have a newfound outlook on the topic of sex. It's a basic instinct, too often detrimental, a distraction from what's really important in life. Apart from that, there are the older divorcees and widows who simply don't want to get into any kind of heavy relationship, but may want male companionship, in terms of dinners out, drives in the country, good conversation, etc. |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 20860748 United States 07/29/2012 09:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Seems to me that most men like to buddy up with other men, unless a woman likes the kinds of things the guy likes. I bet sex is an issue for most guys who are "friends" with a woman. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 13694240 Yes, I think straight men, truth be told, much prefer the company of other men - just based on what you said: common interests. No matter what anyone tries to claim today, men and women are STILL inherently different in too many ways to count and will likely always feel more comfortable in the company of their same gender (as just friends). And there are those people who don't care for either - they much prefer being alone than being with other people. I personally don't think it's physically/emotionally possible for men to spend any time in the company of a woman without wanting/needing something sexual. It's a shame, really, because it seems the potential is there for bonding and sharing some common interests, but it doesn't seem to happen much, if ever. |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 20860748 United States 07/29/2012 09:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Men "fall in love" with women's faces, bodies, their eyes, how they walk, etc. So if she has those qualities, then no, impossible. Quoting: Super Bowl Dave As a male, don't you find that to be somewhat shallow? I live with a girl my age who takes care of me, we sleep in the same bed, but I have no desire for sex. I've had a female friend for ten years and no sex with her. So it can happen. It is shallow, but for me, I'm not even that picky. There are just certain things I like. I don't need a supermodel. I will never have sex unless "certain things" are in place -- I've turned it down many times with girls I didn't feel right about. Ok, so both these women are, in your opinion, unattractive, and that's why you have no-strings attached relationships with them? If so, do other males concur - that it is possible to be really good friends, but ONLY if the female is not considered attractive? |
