<p>Notice the space between "girl" and "friends." It seems like a lot of girls like to have guy friends, so I was wondering about the reverse. Do guys want friends who are girls, or does it just not matter? Speaking of which, why do so many girls want to have friends who are guys?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Because guys don’t do all the BS that girls do. </p>
<p>Interpret that as you please.</p>
<p>I’m an adult and I agree with CE527M!</p>
<p>I get what you’re saying but that’s so… sad 
in that case, shouldn’t people just base friends based on personality rather than gender? because not all guys are decent either.</p>
<p>it just seems like when a guy does something to a girl or is sexist, we all unite. but if everything is a-o-k, girls complain about being girls, about how annoying girls are, etc.
if every girl who thought girls do a lot of BS stopped doing BS, we wouldn’t have this problem -__-</p>
<p>seriously, why is someone being a female make them more unwanted unless it has to do with sex?</p>
<p>I have a bunch of girl friends and they get annoying sometimes. I like being around them, but they just generally talk about themselves and their problems. Lol.</p>
<p>No for me personally because they b*tch SO much. Any guy with girl friends usually wants to get in their pants. That’s not always the case, but don’t be surprised if it happens.</p>
<p>^and again I repeat, why is someone being a female make them more unwanted unless it has to do with sex? :(</p>
<p>Because of the way we have changed to fit into what is expected of us socially. It’s normal for girls to b*tch, so girls learn to do the same. It seems that the specific habits that girls pick up are generally more annoying than those guys pick up.</p>
<p>I’m a girl, in an all girls school and trust me, I find us so annoying! If I were a guy, I would probably have limited girl friends. I just can’t deal with all the drama and attitude and hormones. I’m a junior and I still hear kids my age say, “Why are you mad at me??? What did I do???” And then the other kid answers, “I’m not gonna tell you. Figure it out yourself.” <em>silent treatment</em> I just want to scream GROW UP!!! Girls are just too much drama for me. :)</p>
<p>I’m a male. I would say half my friends are female and half are male. I base my friends off of personality, not gender.</p>
<p>I think I have more girl friends because I act sassy and, um, gay. But that’s just how I am. I’m a straight guy. A lot of girls found it really surprising that I have a girlfriend.</p>
<p>@LaughaholicMD I’m in a similar situation. Of course there are many nice girls but when they’re the only people you have around you all day, every day, the drama can just get really tiring. A couple of years ago, one girl refused to speak to me for almost a week because of a rumour she’d heard, which wasn’t even true, that I’d asked for her to be moved into the same room as me for a school trip, which would have been a very reasonable thing anyway (there’s a very long and complicated explanation to it all).</p>
<p>This is probably the most ridiculous thread I’ve seen on CC. Guys want friends, both male and female, just as girls do. Sure, there are annoying girls out there, JUST AS THERE ARE ANNOYING GUYS. I’m a boy, and it makes me so angry how people here are like “oh I can’t stand girls,” or “boys only want girl friends for sex,” or whatever. This is ridiculous.</p>
<p>Okay, everyone cool it with the gender stereotyping! I’m with CollegiateDreams- everyone complaining how girls are b*****y have one of the following two problems: 1) You haven’t met any nice girls, or, more likely, two 2) you’ve already got the thought in your head that girls are so gossipy, rude, and dramatic, so you interpret girls that way automatically. </p>
<p>It’s sad how we interpret a person’s actions based solely on their gender- how many female class clowns have you guys seen? Probably none, because guys are ‘supposed’ to be the funny ones, so everyone laughs at their jokes. But if a girl acts humorously, she’s seen as loud and desperate for attention.</p>
<p>^That is one of the few benefits of a girls’ school. We have class clowns, and every other role, filled by girls.</p>
<p>I read an interesting (but infuriating) article in The (UK) Sunday Times a few weeks ago about platonic male/female relationships and whether or not they actually exist. Some study had been done that showed that in almost all of these relationships, one or other of the people had more feelings towards the other person.</p>
<p>Anyone ever watch When Harry Met Sally? This thread reminds me of that.</p>
<p>@UKgirl23- I don’t know why anyone would believe that. I have plenty of guy friends, and I’m 100% none of them want to sleep with me.</p>
<p>I’ve been at an all girls school before, and I loved it. but I guess that’s just me :/</p>
<p>
see now, if people are worried about girls acting all dramatic and stuff, why wouldn’t you just follow this like CollegiateDreams? why not just focus on personality?</p>
<p>I feel like no matter how advanced society claims to be, it seems like everyone, including girls, just wish that society is all guys (unless we’re talking about sex). I always hear girls say “I wish I were a guy.” I went through Oxford colleges last year when I was considering the school, and I noticed that they had no girls colleges, because no girls wanted them, but they have a guys’ college. </p>
<p>as a completely traditional, supposedly un-modern girl, I’m HAPPY to be female, thank you very much.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I do, and guys have the personality I like. MOST girls I know are too caught up in themselves and complain (Do I? Yeah, sure, everyone does, but I’m being honest when I say I don’t as much as others).</p>
