So real If a guy refuses to befriend women I just know he’s misogynistic

Absolutely, as long as there’s zero attraction from both sides I don’t see the problem

Does having a good relationship with my older sister count?

It should be the bare minimum to be platonic friends with someone that just happens to be of the opposite sex…

bc i feel like that implies the existence of romantic friends siblings which i like to believe don’t exist

That’s true, meant it’s implied when you have a close relationship with a sibling that you’re friends (and obv platonic) so you don’t need to say it. But a close sibling would still count as having a female friend

if they’re secretly in love and end up getting together that’s okay as long as it happens a respectful time after we break up, if they dated before i’m not going for that

I mean you also can’t know for certain that he’s not into guys and secretly getting dirty with his bros, you’d be surprised how many seemingly straight guys are really into that

Does it count if I have a good relationship with my sister but don’t go out of my way to befriend woman?

If you don’t go out of your way to befriend anyone I wouldn’t say it’s misogynistic (just antisocial), but if you’re avoiding women at potential friends that’s pretty weird
