Moving on from my friends thread got me wondering, because mostly I find I seem to trust men and are able to talk to men more easily. I seem to have a lot of friends that are male.
This could be that I went to an all girl’s school and got to know how bitchy and nasty the female race can be at times.
I do have a couple of very close female friends in life, but I choose very carefully who I let into my soul, but I seem not to worry to much about men for some reason.
So I would just like to run a poll and see who you would form friendships easier with?
I don't have many 'friends' as such, being a tad the sociopath... however, I lean more towards the female than the male (no hidden agenda there either) and as a cosequence find myself more trusting of women. probably a statistical thing there though rather than anything else.

I don't have a preference, I just trust who I trust for that individual, male or female.
I don't trust either sex more than the other...good friends are special and men and women can offer equally wonderful close friendships in my opinion.
I couldn't vote. The question is about who you trust and the options are about making friends.
I don't have the kinds of friends that need trust. I have friends I like spending time with. I don't 'trust' them as such - don't get me wrong, I don't feel they are untrustworthy or anything. I just don't share stuff that needs trust with friends.
I used to only get on with males, but I worked at interacting with females and that's easier now. Maybe I don't know how to make proper friends, just people I like.
In edit : I've had a think. I reckon I tend to assume people are ok until proved otherwise. I'm not naiive, it's just easier than mistrusting people and making them jump through hoops to be friends with.
