VIDEO SUMMARY
In this video I talk about the popular notion that heterosexual men and women cannot have a platonic friendship because sex gets in the way. I assert that scientific research has proven that they can in fact be friends and follow up with a few of many reasons why people believe that men and women cannot be friends. The first section explores our history of separation by sex. The second section explores cultural narratives about cross-sex relationships, how these narratives serve to reinforce this idea in children from a young age, and how that reinforcement later manifests as behavior and belief. The third section explores the belief that sexual desire mitigates or destroys a platonic friendship.
