surely you have to look at the differences here though.
There is a difference between someone who says that they simply don't have female friends, and someone who says that they choose not to be friends with women.
As far as I can see, no-one on this thread has said that they would dismiss a potential friend on the basis that person was a woman. Yet there are lots of people on this thread who say that they get on better with men than women because they find women to be bitchy/two-faced. It is surely no different to saying that you get on better with women than with men because you find men boring/don't have anything in common with them.
I have always had more male friends than female ones purely because I have always found men easier to talk to/many of the men I am friends with have mutual interests i.e. music etc (playing not listening). Thatis not to say I've never had female friends/that I would dismiss someone on the basis they're a woman. Of course I've had female friends, and I have many female aquaintences.
In terms of my opinion that women are bitchy, it is of course assumed here that people say that beause they have been bitched about/got at - not the case here. I've never actively fallen out with any of my friends or aquaintences - male or female. But I've been present in groups of women in the park/playground/pub/their houses where they have bitched about whoever isn't there that night/someone else/stoodd in little groups whispering to one another. Have they bitched about me? Possibly, but that is not the issue; the issue is that it is very common for groups of women to bitch to each other about each other and that is a trate I find really rather unpleasant.
Of course not all women are like that. And often women are not like that in isolation, it is when they get together that they seem to become like a pack.
And it starts young - you see it with little girls forming their little girly gangs and telling tales on each other - ganging up against each other. But apart from each other they're all lovely and most will grow into lovely women.
I wonder tbh whether it's more a case of rather than not wanting to have female friends, not wanting to be a part of the whole girly clique thing iyswim.
I do have female friends. But I do not wish to go out in large groups of women and be a part of the culture that sits in pubs/clubs/the playground/other womens' lounges bitching.
If that makes me weird then so be it.
