fyi. There is no such thing as guys, and girls being friends. I know women think they have guy friends, but those are just guys that want to have sex with them. Consider this next time a female questions this line of thought. Would their best guy friend turn them down for sex, with the response of "I don't want to ruin our friendship", of course not.

I am a man that has a lot of friends who are women that I don't have sexual interest with. Especially true with older female friends. One of my old professors... She's pretty old and that'd just be gross and weird.
I think you're limiting yourself to productive relationships with only half the world's population.

Sure, and in that case, you
A. Don't find them attractive. B. That is not your sexual orientation. C. You're already with someone much higher on your list.
My point here is, an attractive female with a lot of guy "friends", are not her friends, because she has a good personality. That's just a fact of life, no matter what anecdotes you present.

I also have had many female friends who I didn't want to have sex with. Sometimes it's been because I didn't want to ruin our friendship, other times because I simply wasn't attracted to them, and yet still other times because I thought it just wouldn't work out between us and didn't want just a one-night-stand.
This view likely means that, as a man, you have some work to do to find your moral base. I know this because I've been there. You don't have to go through life objectifying all women. Seek help. Good luck.
