PLATONIC FRIENDSHIP I never really understood the concept of intergender platonic friendships. Perhaps boy/girl platonic friendships can flourish if the men in question are: 1. Gay 2. Castrated 3. So damn ugly that they've given up on the concept of ever physically "having" a woman - but I believe that most of my male peers who claim to speak to attractive women, solely out of non-prurient interest are bullshitters, or, even worse, unscrupulous woman-flatterers. I've known so many boys, rife with insincerity, that have carried on months of inane conversation with chicks for the sole purpose of taking a field trip up the old snapper-roonie. Hell, I won't even talk with a woman for more than five minutes if I don't want to lay pipe to her. I can see the responses right now.............."It's asshole guys like you that give nice, empathetic boys like me a bad name." Boy- does it take one deluded male to downright fool themselves into thinking that their daily exchange with Little Miss 19 y/o Sweetass McGee at the office water-cooler is based on non-sexual admiration. Well, maybe it is, on the part of the womenfolk. During Adolf Hitler's anti-intellectual crusade in war-era Germany, the Nazis spearheaded a campaign to spead the message to wildly fervent German nationalists that true Aryans thought, "with their blood", as opposed to the dead, concrete, black and white, anti-spiritual intellectualism that Jews were thought to have pioneered. Although I disagree with Nazi rhetoric whole-heartedly, I would like to offer a variation on the blood-reasoning propaganda theme: "Men think with their cock and balls. Sincere men fess up to it." I know that most of the guys out there are going to disagree with me, and offer up lame examples of their Ivory Pure motives for speaking to women outside of the professional realm, as will most of the gals who would like to have better faith in human nature. My purpose in posting this is to find men and women who AGREE with me.
