*deep breath* After reading the secret and three pages' worth of responses to this secret, I'm taking lots of deep breaths to stay calm. Why? Well...

Though I can get along with women, I prefer the company of guys. I always have. Yes, even as a toddler, I prefered to hang out with those of the male sex. I think this has less to do with culture and more to do with the fact that I was introduced to boys at a much earlier age than girls (infancy compared to six years old when I had my first female friend around my age). The way you have worded your secret makes me feel like I'm a bad person because of my preference. I really hope that is not the case. Likewise, to the people who say that girls will grow out of the habit of having only guy friends and publicly declaring it, how do you know it's merely a phase? For some females, it is a matter of preference or even something that has evolved after any sort of abuse from another female (especially emotional abuse, which I'm still in therapy for years later because it warped my personality in ways that make me unhappy with myself).

While I am all for women being on the same footing as men in society, it really chaps me when I see secrets like this. I understand everyone having their own feelings toward the subject, but I wish you would consider some of the other reasons some women at least say they don't like other women.

not the OP, but the secret isn't, imo, criticizing any woman who simply has more guy friends than female friends -- which is fine. It's pointing at girls who go "I can't be friends with other girls, they're so bitchy/catty/back-stabbing/etc, I much prefer guy friends!" Those comments do exist, and if someone feels the need to go on about how they don't have any female friends, and especially make negative generalizations a bout women, chances are it's a lot deeper than just having more guy friends.
