Are girls friendlier than guys?

[Excess]

Just kinda something I've noticed is that girls, on average, tend to be more talkative and friendly than the average guy. I mean sure I've met some guys that were and some girls that weren't but again, talking on averages here. Why? Is there a reason it would seem like this to me exactly? I doubt I'm so good looking that girls wanna talk to me just because of that. XD Is it because I'm more of a 'female's man', like what a 'man's woman' is?

Anyone else have any thoughts on this subject? Experiences? Pizza? Etc.?

I am not sure if one could give you an answer based solely on gender; there are so many individualistic factors involved. Perhaps most men have only one thing on their mind, and it involves the opposite sex.

Maybe this will explain why some guys don't come across as friendly to you as some girls do; maybe some feel that they will not "benefit" out of talking to another guy.

No. Women are weird and scary.

Yeah I've thought of this. I mean there are some things that are easier to talk about to other guys of course but obviously if I was a hot chick they'd likely be more inclined. But this doesn't really seem to work in reverse as much, which probably shows the difference between the priorities of guys and (many) girls.

lololol sorry I had to. Never even see it either.

No. Most of it's surface based. It takes longer for something to take root, where guys seem to have a tendancy to hit it off a lot better.

When the shit hits the fan and the drama starts that's when it might be different, I'm sure.

But I bet a majority of the girls you talk to have more guy friends then girl friends.

We're too dramatic. 😛

Edit:: Meangirls is actually a decent portrayal. Not heavily in out of school terms, but in school it's practically right on target. I liked that movie.

No, that can't be it, I know for a fact at least 2 of them have a lot of girl friends as well. But yeah, some girls are just the kind guys get on with well.

But you are too dramatic. 😛

Id say these days you cant talk to anyone.

Girls: If she doesn't find you attractive she wont want to know.
Men: If your better looking than he is he'll dislike you.

That and women assume all men are cocks whilst men ARE in fact all cocks.

Great story:
I meet a girl in a club. We go back to hers, we have sex. In the morning she is shocked that i am still there and explains that most blokes would have just fucked off after having sex with her. Then she calls me a wierdo and kicks me out of her house...

wtf?

In all fairness, if she was willing to give it up on the first night it's quite obvious she had no interest in you as another other than a good time.

The answer you will get has several factors involved.

A) The most important is individual nature of each person. We'll ignore this for now and aim more towards the general factors

B) whether the person answering the question is male or female

C) Whether the person answering the question is attractive or unattractive


Attractive people often answer that the opposite sex is more friendly (because more members of the opposite sex will not only speak to them but flirt/be more friendly in general with them) while unattractive people will often answer the same sex is more friendly.

Then I must be half-ugly.

But what if said person is gay or lesbian and states that the opposite sex is more friendly? I know that one of the (mostly true) stereotypes within the LGBT community is that the gay guys have more girl friends (dubbed fag hags lol) and lesbians have more guy friends (dubbed lezbros xD). Just sayin'.

Well, in real life I have more friends that are girls, but on this forum I have tons more guy friends than girl friends. Idk why that is. lol They're all awesome, anyway. But to me it all depends on the person, not whether they have internal or external plumbing.

 

[Musicroxmysox]

Granted this particular question needs to be taken on a case by case basis....

However......I personally feel that both sexes are equally friendly. I have about the same amount of girl/ guy friends and get along with both of them splendidly.

So I really don't think either gender is friendlier or less friendly.

I sometimes wonder about that. I completely agree with you on it. To me it just seems that when women interact on some level (in my opinion mainly at work) things get tense and almost competative unless they are already good friends and have defined roles in their interactions. I'll be honest most of the women at my office drive me up the wall... wait umm most people in my office do that. But honestly I am more concerned about having to compete with some of my female coworkers than the male.

Outside of work, I tend to have a few friends and most were female. So maybe I am not worth competing with or I am just way better at tuning that nonsense out in my personal life. Who know? So far it's working for me and as long as it does I plan on keeping it that way.

That Tina Fey chick in the left is fucking pawwwn!

Girls are catty as all hell. Half the time, their innocent comments or even compliments are meant to be insulting. The effort they put into cutting people they dislike down while making it look like they haven't, is insane to me. Unfortunately, they're none too smart and their comments are usually pretty obvious to most people. I've just noticed this moreso of girls than guys.

Also, that's Lindsay Lohan, not Tina Fey. There is a difference of about 100 IQ points.

Sounds like you know yourself pretty well there, Annie. Once again, however, your sarcasm detectors fail you.

So, you must know me better than I know myself, huh?

And I wasn't sure how popular Tina Fey was in Australia. My bad.

All good.

Anyway, I think girls are friendlier than guys, but do understand the nasty bitchiness that goes on between girls. That "behind your back" subtle kind of bullying that breaks a teenage girls' confidence. It goes on with guys, but it's more 'in your face' perhaps, not as sneaky. For me though, I think I just find girls a little more approachable than guys.

 

[Angel77]

I usually get along with pretty much everyone but I have to say in my personal experience, I've always seemed to get along better with guys because most of the guys I grew up around were low key, drama free and just super friendly. My friends that were fellow females were much more likely to flip out, get pissy because some girl "looked" at her boyfriend, gossip, start stupid fights, etc. Not saying my guy friends didn't have their moments but there were a lot less of them. This is my personal experience anyways.

 

[tickler118]

Well I don't know the answer to that but from my personal experience, I've never known a girl who could talk to me about another girl without totally downgrading her.

Example: I'd say something like "Wow, Jessica was really funny last night" and I'd most likely get something back like "She's really put on weight though"!

On the other hand, if I said that to a guy about another guy, I'd most likely get back a positive answer.

Just my experience, though.

Being mean, or friendly, and shit like that, never ever depends on the gender. It depends on the person, personality wise. It's not too difficult to really realize that.

I think people are mostly responding based on their own personal experiences, though that might be hard to realize.
