I would prefer that my friends are male. I don't know but confrontations and jealousy are more rampant with my female friends rather than my male friends. Most of the times you can lean on and asked help easily from your male friends than your female friends.No conflict of interest as you are both opposite sexes.

When you are defining a friend you dont consider the gender.A friend is a friend and gender has got nothing to do with it.But there are few things only male friends can solve for boys and female friends can solve for girls.So,as far as being a friend is considered i wouldnt mind if it is a girl or a boy.

i prefer both but really male friends are a little bit more objective and female friends are sort of judgemental and they easily jump into conslusions.

For me, being a guy... i prefer a male friends than a the girls.. Coz we all know every details in our mind... Like about sportsm, bars and other outdoor activities... Unlike with girls, though its really fun to have a girl friends also, its just like you're always having an argue even though u dont like to.. u know? They will start conversations that later on, they will get mad coz they cant accept what their hearing from boys.. somethingt like that. So I prefer my boy buddies.. As its easy for us to get bond with!

I find it easier to relate with male friends than with female friends. Female friends always compare you with themselves; it's either she worships you or she thinks she's better. Male friends will really stick with you through thick or thin, and they will love you just the way you are even you're not perfect. I met my female friends for a season or for a reason ; i met my male friends for a lifetime. :)

My closest friends are male, took hubby a while to be able to accept this fact. Easier now that most of my male friends are also married, and we have a friendship with both.

I like to have male friends also. They are more caring compared to females. An example is when we ride on a jeepney they offer seat for me. They made me comfortable anywhere because I am a girl. Male friends also mostly can keep secrets. So, I am more comfortable to tell them secrets than to my women friends. Most of my male friends don't backbite on people. We mostly talk of reality and issues. But I also have female friends. And they are good ones also.

I would say that, both gender has its advantages and disadvantages for having as a friend. But I would like both male and female be part of my friends. Especially in giving advice. My guy friends has a different way of giving their advice but it always works well. My gal friends is also always there to support.

For me, when I am friends with a female, there is a jealousy level but when I am hanging out with guys, there's none of that. I only have three or four poeple that I consider real friends, the rest are people I associate with. I'd rather have a couple of true friends that I know I can count on no matter what the situation than to have tons of people that may or may not be there if I need them.
