It's the age-old question: Can a man and a woman just be friends? A new study suggests that they can't -- at least as far as the guy is concerned. Men are more sexually interested in their female friends than their female friends are in them, LiveScience reports.


Not only are guys more likely to pine for their platonic female pals, but they're also more likely than gals to think their friends are romantically interested in them, too, even if they aren't. "Men over-infer women's sexual interest in a variety of contexts, and I definitely see that extending into the domain of cross-sex friendships as well," study researcher April Bleske-Rechek, a psychologist at the University of Wisconsin, Eau Claire, told LiveScience.
However, being attracted to your BFF isn't always such pleasant experience (as many of us have learned the hard way). Study participants were much more likely to list attraction as a "cost" rather than a benefit of their opposite-sex friendship (though men were less likely to see it this way than women).
What do you think? Is being attracted to your friend a recipe for disaster? Or could it possibly lead to love?

Race is real. Medical science knows it. Geneticists know it. And forensic pathologists know it. They can identify the race of someone just by looking at the bones.
Black civilizations have no interest in that whatsoever. They have lower IQs, whatever creativity they have is always intensely focused on finding as many mating opportunities as possible and producing as many offspring, which as a mating strategy is what you'd expect from people who evolved in an abundant subtropical climate.
If we we don't classify, divide, and separate, the delicate, fragile traits that whites managed to evolve over the last 200,000 separate from blacks will be eradicated forever.
Every other nation touched by your white ancestry was doing fine until you showed up, unwelcome of course, seizing land that wasn't yours, raping, killing and spreading European diseases. Yet many of you claim that everyone else is somehow savage.
It is savage for Nazism to encourage eugenics for "racial hygiene". It is savage to force sterilization on those who are not of a lighter, whiter hue. It is savage to deem someone different than yourself as inferior.
What is also hypocritical, is the fact that you deem blacks to be lazy, yet what "white American history" tries to hide is the fact that America was built on slave labor, at the hands of blacks, forcefully, because your white ancestors were too lazy to do so for themselves. The cruelty you have displayed racially has far outnumbered that of any other racial groups offenses.
As far as lower IQs the ignorance you and your friend Bob have displayed tells me a little something

They also average the highest educational attainment in the country.

btw I saw where you raved my last reply to Brian...did you really read all of that? LOL I am not even sure if he will.
edit: And as you can see below, he has already started the childish name-calling and ridiculous accusations. You should just block him and be on your way -- I did.
At every step, the people like me are being vindicated by science. We aren't being disproven. What *I* am seeing here is YOUR ideology, one build upon heaps and heaps of lies and misinformation taught in public schools, becoming fearful that science will expose it for the nonsense it is. That's why there is so much intensity to try to marginalize people like me before the message gets out.
But you can't hide facts forever. It took 10 years for the intellectuals on your side to admit that yes, race does exist.
Did you or did you not say that? That should be easy to answer. Just scroll up a little.
And there is nothing more notorious about that enslavement than the enslavement of Africans by the Egyptians, or by the Arabs, or any of the other thousands of years in the past when Africans were slaves of someone.
The only constant throughout time is that Africans have been slaves, either to other civilization or other tribes of their own.
Well then I apologize for thinking that it was English you were speaking. Because, you see, in English "originated" and "began" are synonyms.
Oh no, it hasn't always been the poor pitiful blacks that we must always feel sorry for. But the f*cking blacks aren't the most important people in the universe. Slavery is slavery.

An ad in Hong Kong showing a Chinese girl on a date with a white guy is deemed hateful and racist. Why? Because she's with a white guy.
In America, white guys aren't allowed to say anything about women dating black guys. Everywhere else in the world, if they try to date non-white women, they are called, you guessed it, racists.
I think that about sums up the whole "white privilege" hoax. Got anything better?
Oh wait, you mean why will blacks not get accepted into college in the same numbers? Because without AA, their enrollment numbers would be a more accurate reflection of their group intelligence.
The real fact is that blacks have *consistently* scored around 85, no matter what test, who was giving it, and however culturally neutral. IQ tests don't ask trivia questions, which seems to be what a lot of you sorts of people think.
And there, I see where you go with that next. You don't argue with my point. You go on to explain why you think whites deserve to be eliminated. You say we killed off natives or some crap, as if whites were the only people to fight wars and invade other places. If you think that you might want to explain why 90% of Egypt's population is Arab. Arabs don't come from Egypt.
And to further expose your actual feelings about why you think whites should be exterminated, you bring up slavery. Well, that's funny. The oldest recorded literature in history, The Epic of Gilgamesh, which is over 6,000 years old, mentions slavery. Hasn't it ever occurred to you that you have never read about any time in history that a people fought a war to free slaves? Did any population on earth anywhere ever fight so hard to drive slavery away? How is it, if whites are so evil and bad, that it wasn't until the rise to prominence of European civilization that slavery was eliminated? You need to answer that, because you want to wipe us out based on a flawed premise.
