Even 12 years ago it was seemingly possible to cherry pick the answers you wanted to control the narative. (there's 6 times as many women being interviewed as there were men, most probably because he cut out the guys who said 'yes'). I bet most of the guys who said 'no' also think that all gay men are after them simply because they are male. Such a narrow view of the world...
95% of my friendships are with women and I don't have sex with them. There has to be a very large separation between things. The point is that most men still act in a very primitive way and then many women take advantage of this. They know when you feel something extra for her, but she prefers to take advantage of it, being sure that you won't leave and will serve as a backup, If other options for men go wrong, like "wait for me, if everything goes wrong, I've got you". Don't be like that, men. There was only one time in my life that I dated a friend and it was my first girlfriend and wife. Then we separated, but the pattern continues. Obviously if I'm going to invest in someone, it will most likely be someone I've already made friends with, but there's a difference between "friendship" and "friendship Hoping for something more.”
Absolutely no reason to be just friends with women. If they’re attractive they’re worth more than friends. If not then I still don’t see the point. I understand only if you’re gay.
There's a lot of statistical problems here. We don't know how many people this guy and his camera man actually interviewed, and we don't know how many of these people we actually see are telling the truth. For all we know, he interviewed 100 people, but only showed us the 10 of them that supported his narrative. Theres also a demographic issue. The interviewer and his team only went to a college campus. Thats a particular type of people at a particular type of age. So we don't know what people in their 20's, 30's, 40's etc., think about the issue.
PSA for anyone in a relationship reading this: If you’re genuinely uncomfortable with your partner being close friends with someone they’re compatible with (keeping this open ended because not everyone’s straight), talk to them about it.
Ohh yes, the hook up culture -- a predominant perversion of modern society. No wonder that so many don't believe in male-female friendship if for the males, their female acquaintances are just an estate for sexual conquer. Divorce rate is skyrocketing for a good while now, I wonder why.
Here a straight man with many female friends. If you believe you can't be friends with half of humanity without wanting to fuck them then you have a problem.
@@alcibiadesonthestreetsbi sexuals are statistically insignificant. I don’t understand how someone from a logical perspective, being them up. They make up less than 1% of the population.
You're not going to get women to concede anything. They cannot even withstand an interrogation of why wear high heels or makeup in the workplace. We've tamed them as far as they can be tamed. Trying to draw them further into the light is just cruel.
This is an all time classic! He's TOTALLY RIGHT!!! Where are all the men? In the "friend zone" where you put them. Women are such incredible LIARS!!!!!!!
Only if you have activities in common with each other. Otherwise if they aren't attracted there's not much reason to be talking to each other any further. I have a friend thats a girl and we sometimes game together and talk about life and how we're doing. That's as far as it goes. Every other girl that said they just wanted to be friends we stopped talking to each other because there's no reason to continue being friends. Not to mention do you know how many friends those girls have and talk to? They don't have time to be talking to every single "friend."
all those ladies said yes but... they knew deep down that what that really means is... she knows the dude wants something... so she can get a free hamburger. which means everybody sees the other as an object ! ha ha !!
Get people that are over 30 and ask the same things. It's a lot easier to maintain a friendship when you have better intimate relationships with your SO. It's much easier to say no to a cookie when u already had a sandwich
They can be absolutely. I don't even understand how this is a question. I've had many female friends throughout my lifetime. It's the same as having a male friend they are just a different gender.
The only reason a man would spend time with a woman, especially alone, is he wants more. Some guys are willing to wait hoping she will hit a vulnerable time and he can get what he really wants - sex. I have always felt some tension around women but never men because it is not natural for a man and woman to be friends.
The problem is that women are so content with lying to others, that they have no problem sith lying to themselves. And live in total ignorance and delusion. Causing havoc and mayhem around them. All because they cant suppress the need for attention.
