Fact or Fiction: The Platonic Male/Female Friendship

Does this relationship exist? If we look to Hollywood for answers, then the answer has to be a resounding no. Harry fucked Sally, Ross took Rachel's temperature, and I assume Patrick Dempsey did something he found disgusting to his female BFF in Made of Honor (the author had to quit watching when Dempsey described a restaurant as that "trendy place" and meant that as a compliment.) Hollywood finds a man's friendship with Big Foot more plausible than the male/female friendship. Is this really true? Are single men and women incapable of achieving the type of relationship that friendship icons Mase and Puffy shoulder shook their way to in mid 90's?

The answer is Hollywood might have this one right, but for the wrong reasons. Contrary to what Hollywood would have you believe, two attractive singles can laugh and have fun while mutually keeping it on the platonic level. Instead its our society that won't allow men to have strong friendships with women. For example, if a man becomes friends with a woman of equal or more attractive points, everyone whispers he is just waiting in the wings for her to slip up. No one wants to be THAT guy. And in the exact opposite scenario, a guy can't be friends with a fug because no matter what pretty girls say....they'll judge you and write you off as a fug fucker.

Even if that isn't true (it is), the dynamics of male friendships will absolutely forbid a strong and lasting friendship between a single male and female. You see male friendships aren't so much a relationship as they are a competition. Who can drink the most the quickest? Who can say the most disgusting thing at the wrong moment? These are the questions that male friendships are built on. And women smartly don't play that game.

Celebrities, Fuglies, and the Poor agree.......

Dating and relationships are an easy thing. In Hollywood, with little pressure at "work", love and life are breezey ezxperiences for these glorified talking models (exception of the under-medicated/educated Brittany Spears & Lindsay Lohan). The moment the rich and beautiful grow tired of their significant others its pretty easy to just split and pick their next mate from the pretty and interesting people buffet.

Speaking of buffets, the fuglies and poor have at least one thing really easy...dating. The poor are too concerned about where the next meal is coming from to have time to complain their boyfriend talks on the phone with their friends too much, assuming they have a prepaid cell phone. And fuglies, it is an unbelievable experience to hear a fugly describe their boyfriend or girlfriend. By some miracle all fugs at some point find the perfect guy or girl. He or she is always the best, most considerate, and caring mate you will ever hear about. Could this really be true, did the fuglies at a young age really have to develop into such spectacular people to survive? No way, fugs are just so happy they found someone that will have sex with them or go out in public with them that they are able to look past all the annoying irritating stuff that those with options usually make us say sayonara.
