POLL: Do you get along with your own gender?

Mostly guys, girls are too much effort and trouble and they're a bit crap really

Thanks... we send rainbows and ponies to you too!

Loooooool well most of the ones I know are, my closest friends are girls actually but that's because they seem to be those kind of girls that are just nice to everyone, if you know what type I mean

But in my experience.. many of you are trouble

Haha. Yeah I think I do



Trouble? Us? Sure... I don't know, some of you guys can be very annoying too!

Like the ones that walk into a room and brighten the whole atmosphere because they are so lovely and nice to everyone and everyone loves them?

Probably, if it weren't for hormones I bet the world would be in a constant war of man vs woman

Movies always show girls with lots of girlfriends, and guys with guy friends, and people always seem to assume you have friends of the same gender. How common is this actually? I've never had female friends, ever. Even as a little girl, I played with boys. My teachers used to remark on it. Even though I now have some female friends, my friendship group is mixed and very male heavy. I've never got on with girls, on the whole they just don't like me. I tend to find girl groups bitchy and I can't be arsed with it

My boyfriend, on the other hand, has loaaaaaaaaads of female friends. I'd say it's about a 50/50 split.

This got me thinking, is it THAT weird to actually prefer friends of the opposite gender?

Do you get on with your own gender? Why/why not?

If you're approaching groups of women with the attitude of "they're bitchy and they're going to hate me" is it really a surprise that they don't like you? Of courseit's going to affect your relationships with them! There are so many different women with different personalities and interests (just like men!) that if you have repeatedly failed to find a female friendship groups that likes you, then that does seem like there's a problem with you. Namely your terrible attitude to women as friends. Have you decided that this feminism thing is taking too long so you're just going to trample on the rest of us to be 'one of the guys'?

Nope. I very rarely get on with girls and those I do get on with are typically tomboy-ish. I have always felt more comfortable around guys friends and felt like I could trust them more and they were less judgemental.

I get along with some girls fine, but that's mostly because they're just like me. I've mostly been friends with boys throughout my life, and any female friends I've had have been the same way.
I just hate how you never get if they genuinely like you or not. Be more upfront and honest, dammit! And for the most part they're never into the same things I am. For this reason, I prefer to spend time with my boyfriend because we like watching the same shows, we like to play Pokemon, watching Indie movies on Netflix, going to museums etc. I mean, if I could get more female friends that like to do that stuff, then that would be great.

Wah, he needs to come back from America

Teenage girls are the scum of the earth, a fair amount grow out of it and go on to become loveley people though.

It's not that I approach them thinking it, it's just it always happens so I'm unsurprised when it does. I've also never found groups of women interesting.

Yeah I know women have different personalities - and I get on with women who don't hang around in groups of women. Other "guy girls". But in my experience, women in groups are very difficult

No, I haven't. I think women deserve equal rights, I just don't really want to hang around in groups of them
