You don't know what you're talking about, because you are not a girl.

Being friends with girls doesn't mean you understand what it's like to be one.

Yeah you can fight with your friends, that doesn't mean your not close, in fact often you fight because you are close.

I fight with my sister all the time, almost on a daily basis because we're so close. I wouldn't care about fighting with someone I didn't care about, I'd just ignore them. When you are so close with someone, it hurts a lot more when they do something that makes you upset, that's why you see comments like "omg don't trust whores!".

You know, maybe you should consider the fact that you don't really understand this.

There is noting to be ashamed of, men and women have been struggling to understand each other for thousands of years, you did not suddenly just learn the secret that has alluded men since human beings could think coherently.

Take that considerations, because some of your posts are, no offence, really stupid.

Besides accepting us as being emotional drama queens there really is no "secret" to getting along with women.

Indeed, arguably better friends through thick and thin. I've heard that girls are far more fickle than men are. (and my sister can be my testament to this if you start nitpicking about a lack of proof for what is always going to be a judgement statement)

Edit: Also, just a statement in general. I find it quite ironic that there's talk of life-long friendships etc when people are younger than me, and I'm only 21. ._.

I get that I'm making an assumption, I just find it hard to imagine men being as close as women when I see male friendship (admittedly from the outside).

Not that men can't be close friends, but as lung-tao said, when you are best friends with someone you're far closer to be sisters than you are anything else.

I admit that I could be wrong, I find it unlikely that I am.

Ummm, ok, now I understand.

You just said that males can't have a close friendship.

What... The... Fuck?

Damn, maybe I'll sound sexist and stuff, but all I hear from "girls that are friends" is only "Oh did you see that bitch, oh she's such a whore, she did that, bla bla". Like for real, at their age to talk like that about their friends?

Males don't do that, and the ones that do are usually the more feminine ones and the retards. I don't know how close you girls can get, but I'm sure males can get the same or even more.

I haven't made any research or anything but from my life experience women close friendships are always more intimate and obsessive but can also turn ugly and into hate really easy.
On the other hand men don't go to some extremes with their friends like women do when they feel close but they are more stable.

I'm saying that, I believed that girls friendship was better, I accept that I'm talking out of ignorance here, but so was Jony and XyuriX guy when they were talking about our friendships.

I accept that I could be and maybe am wrong, I don't know, I can't ever know what a male friendship is like, so I can only say what I think.

Hmm, this is a copy paste from a comment over you, so kudos to SOLO guy, couldn't explain it first.

We're not as intimate as you maybe (depends on males), but we're a lot more stable.

I don't know why, but how you wrote it sound like you were lying about being neutral about it.

"Oh men and women are equal" *insert Women better than Males here*.

That's why people are bashing on you at the moment.

You should pick your words carefully. Like, you were talking to those two and trying to make them look bad? Well, you made yourself look bad, because it sounded like thats what you actually thought.

Why are we still bumping this thread anyways? The idea is if women are better leaders/rulers than we are... I gave you a research and it clearly answered the question.

Some men will and have died for their friends, there is no more extreme then that. You are right in some aspects though.

Well like I said, I'm sorry, it's far from the first time I've been told things like this before.

My problem is that I often type or say something without thinking, I often type what I believe straight away when I read a comment or when someone says something to me.

I've kind of always been like that, I don't believe women are "better" than men, I admit that I believe that our friendships were deeper, but just as I admitted I could very well be wrong, I'm obviously being biased because that's where all my experience comes from.

My only real male relationships come from my boyfriend and class mates, I come from a very female-dominated family, I've only ever lived with my mother and my sister, our father has never been there.

So I think that my perception on men is probably a bit warped.

I'll explain what I meant. By gossip, I mean backstabbing... Talking in the back...

Guys don't do this, or at least not as often, or at least NOT in my group of friends. In my opinion we guys are a lot more direct if there's something to gossip about. We'll tell the guy/girl in their faces.

That's not what i mean. Men aren't any less in term of support but when things are normal they aren't meeting as much or call each other as much or talk as much(women can be on the phone for hours). Women get a little obsessive with their girl friends. Buying similar clothes, not doing anything without each others advice etc. When a man sees a friend like a brother it means his someone he could die for, when a woman sees someone like a sister, means that is someone she wants to be seeing all the time.

yes, they do. anyone that says otherwise is lying.

gossip doesn't have to be bad or negative. all it is is simply talking about other people. everyone talks about other people.

an example.. i went to the bar one night with a bunch of my bros, kay? one of them was acting a little desperate because he had never been in a relationship before, the rest of us were in committed relationship, so were just having fun, mindlessly flirting but nothing serious. well, after the night was over and we dropped our relationshipless friend off at his house my other friend turned to me and said "he was being kind of annoying tonight, don't you think?" and i was like, "nahh, i kind of feel for him. it must be tough."

that's gossip. doesn't mean my friends hate each other because they got a little annoyed. everyone gets annoyed. in fact, this whole story is "gossip"

men just don't like to call it gossip, lol but it is.

my roommate and i have a new roommate this year. we tell our new roommate tons of stories, good and bad, about our old roommate (he moved out because he got a full time job in another place). we are still friends with our old roommate... even though we sometimes say bad stories about him. its gossip, but harmless.

so yeah, men do talk about other people just as much as girls do. they might not use as much catty vocabularily, or emotionally charged vocabularily as girls, but that could be a societal thing. they gossip just as much

I know where you are getting at, and in some sense you are right. If you try to compare male friendship and female friendship too literally it would definitely seem that women are closer to each other then man. In terms of skinship and socializing i would have to say woman are more comfortable with each other in that regard. But, that is not the way men show affection and appreciation towards each other. It's hard to put into words, i don't think you can truly word how women can be close to each other. But, with guys, it is just more of an understanding we reach through trials of trust and confrontation, good times and bad times. I have a lot of aquaintances, some friends, and a few that i consider brothers. Not by blood, but just as strong. You can believe that female can have a close bond all you want. But, i think it is insulting for you to even believe that men can't have as close a friendship.

Damn, i honestly don't like saying stuff like this in a forum, but that's how i feel.

Backstabbing and gossiping are two totally different things.
I will go with job situations: Backstabbing is situation when someone makes something nasty to gain position in front of a boss. Like some good old obstruction of work, not sharing information and other stuff like this - both guys and girls do this. No sex difference here.

Gossiping - ok guys won't meet on a corridor and talk that this other girl is like this and that, but still they will share exactly same informations. Not to mention good old bringing stuff like this to boss, again no difference here.

Ok guys show their emotions and act in different way but quite honestly there is no or very little difference between "girl" and "guys" friendship. Simply other sex doesn't notice all details or what is happening (we think in different way after all).

If anything, what scares me are the shoes. What the fuck is with women and buying shoes!? If women controlled the world, we'd probably see a lot more shoe stores, and that's saying a lot cause there are already enough shoe stores in the world.

Women get a little obsessive with their girl friends. Buying similar clothes, not doing anything without each others advice etc.

Cloths not, but go into topic of electronics (computers, phones and such) - there can be true obsession over who got faster computer, whose phone has more useless apps that can fart... it's freaking arms race :D

If anything, what scares me are the shoes. What the fuck is with women and buying shoes!? If women controlled the world, we'd probably see a lot more shoe stores, and that's saying a lot cause there are already enough shoe stores in the world.


I also never understood why women always need to go to the bathroom in groups of 2-6 people.

This is usually to chat, especially if you are on a date. My friends would go to the bathroom and be like "oh this date is going awful/well", or if it's going really badly, you'll use this time to call someone and ask them to ring you soon with some emergency :|

I like to think that it's their chance to gossip about something in private away from the men.

Shoes are fine, there can be more of those (I got them chosen either way :P )... but shops with electronics.
Salesman talks about some megapixels, radio, UMTS and other stuff that is in the phone with speed of lightning. And I just want it to ring, send mails and wake me up... no to use it to invade Iceland.

About stores with cosmetics I can agree - I have no idea what is there and when I'm send to fulfil some quest there I just give paper to salesman and go to pay.

Positive gossip is normal between both genders.

Females gossip negatively more than us.


And this comment is backed from how much experience in your life?

About...

My age of 20?

I don't know, maybe I pick good friends? I lived both in Romania and Italy, in Romania you do not speak shit about others, in Italy it's a lot more often, but my friends don't do it.

In general that's what I felt and seen.

The usual girl friends talk only shit about their friends, even about their best friends. I never did that OR heard from other guys.

I'm not old enough to actually have a stand-up opinion on this subject but I wanted to have my voice thrown in somewhere.

My high school is run by all women(woman principal with 3 women vice principals). What I've noticed in my school since they took over is that my peers are more disrespectful. They hold no respect for any of them and don't mind voicing it(pep rallys are sometimes shameful because of this). Now this is not to say that my school doesn't punish students like they use to, they still do the same thing they've always done. It may have to do with how they have taken away so many of our freedoms or how incredibly annoying her voice and "cheery" attitude is, I don't know. But, I do think a man is needed in the office because men think differently; they give a different aspect to problems or ideas. They also have a higher chance of identifying with male students than the women do.

To get back to the topic, I don't think it would be a better place if women ruled but I think it might be a good idea to get more women in higher places.

But that's the thing. Why do they feel so compelled to gossip so very often to the point they need to go take a potty break just to do it? And if it's something to this degree:

It just seems like a complete bitch move.

Also, games, porn, and beer offer a lot more than just buying shoes just so you wear them once in a blue moon. >_>

The women that have risen to power are nothing like your stereotypical girl all of you seem too know.. I mean seriously if your ruling a country your more concerned with things like international relations,increasing your economy,getting health care to your people, I mean there's a million important things to do. There's a reason that all our world leaders just wear suits; I don't think they care much about fashion, and if they did they'd have to set that aside. And about the men just bringing in beer and porn and stuff; the same thing is to be said. Usually even evil leaders wouldn't focus on something like that because it wouldn't be effective.Also it's not a leaders job to open a shoe store or cosmetics store, I don't know why the hell you people would think that.. What do you guys think a leaders job even is? it seems your all really ignorant and oblivious to it.
