"A man and a woman can't be friends without sexual tension. There will always be sexual tension."

The entire concept grossed me out, so I decided the solution was to go out of my way to never, ever, ever befriend anyone of the opposite sex. Which was stupid of me, but I was a teenager and teenagers are stupid.

...Why is that stupid? Everyone makes friends in their own way, so unless you believe there's something fundamentally wrong with friends of your own sex too, I don't see the problem.

ayrt

Don't you think it's a little immature to actively avoid half the human population because "Oh no, what if I make a friend, but THEN THEY DON'T WANT TO BE JUST FRIENDS?"

Pssssst... it's stupid because it's untrue and because it makes sweeping stereotypes based on gender while encouraging a person not to make friends outside their own gender, thereby perpetuating the "men and women can't be friends" myth.

Ugh that "advice" always annoyed me too. Sure there's people out there that can't manage to be friends with the opposite sex and act all possessive over what they assume will be their future wife/husband. But those aren't the people I want to be friends with anyway.

ugh this pisses me off so much!!! I hear it from people every now and then in discussions about relationships...usually from guys, and it smacks of not wanting to take responsibility for their sexual objectification of women. We're brains that happen to have vaginas, not vaginas that happen to have brains.*

*Generally speaking, of course. Not trying to erase trans women.

I'm a woman and most of my friends are men and there's little to no sexual tension.
Of course, I look like shit.
