People not having mixed friend groups has just always been such a weird thing to me. Like you’re fr gonna tell me you don’t surround yourself with all sorts of people? There’s something wrong with you if only one type of person can handle being your friend. My friend group is full of men, women, old folks, young folks, all over the sexuality spectrum, like wym you’re only friends with people exactly like you???
Okay so I will have to say I’m in a friend group of mostly women because I share interests which are primarily enjoyed by other woman (not saying a guy couldn’t enjoy them just saying more women do) I think it’s okay if you have a friend group that is similar to you because becoming friends means you have to have similar interests and from the outside looking in they might all be the same but when you are actually in the friend group there are actually a lot of difference.
Now with that being said I think the strangest part is the idea of being forced to choose your friends based on something like gender that’s weird asf or having to choose ppl who can ONLY be interested in the opposite of your gender like we automatically will sleep with anyone who COULD be attracted to us
You say mostly bc you know it can exist in mixed company and that’s fine! Like the core of a friend group being women is one thing, and tbh pretty natural with how our society builds itself. Exclusively only being able to be friends with just women as a woman and purposefully excluding anyone else? That’s where the red flags come in
In my experience, the only people who care are the ones that can’t see their attracted gender group as anything other than sexual objects. And assume everyone else must view people the same way bc god forbid they’re the weird ones here. Everyone is a potential sex partner, and can’t be seen otherwise. And it’s usually socially implicated so not entirely their fault but also you’re an adult it’s time to unlearn some things
