Just to ease the seriousness of the political stuff....


Do you think guys are capable of purely platonic friendships with women?


I seem to notice that this is quite rare (especially if the woman is hot). I've rarely seen a guy wanting to be "just friends" with a woman. If shes worth something, a lot of girls' "guy friends" just want to get laid with her.

The only exceptions I have seen are for older people, or married people. Even with guys who already have a girl of their own, I've seen some guys get friendly with other women for getting laid, "just in case".

Is it my imagination, or does biology overcome all our instincts? :)


The notable exception is in a professional environment. There seems to be a sort of extreme "violation" to get involved with a business partner, or even a worker (although a worker dating a worker might be common I suppose). But then, you really aren't friends with anyone in a professional relationship.


Ideological loyalty is the act of giving your soul to a vague concept, to be manipulated by people smarter than you.
