[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am very much in favor of opposite gender friends, because it demystifies and desexualizes the opposite sex. I've had lunches and gone to movies with my male friends. I have noticed that here in the US, it's harder to develop those friendships than in my home country in western Europe, where opposite gender friendships are entirely normal and unquestioned. It's so weird that here, even on a progressive forum, we would still be debating whether they're acceptable. [/quote] In Europe they also appear more open in their relationships and less concerned with monogamy, but that is just what I hear from my friends across the pond. You can have friends of the opposite sex, but desexualizing the opposite sex sounds like an uphill battle. I would personally rather protect what’s important to me than try to walk the tightrope of intentions and reality. Happy to hear that it does work for some people though. [/quote]
