Can a girl be your bro?

[Colour Scientist]

I like to think so. Most of my good friends are guys, even though I am by no means a tomboy. Guys are alot easier to get along with than girls, in general. Don't get me wrong, I have girl friends but a majority of my core group would be male.

I've been a wing-(wo)man a couple of times, it's fun and you feel kind of smug when a plan comes together.

Not really, they can be good friend as long as they are unattractive, but guys/girls have different preferences in topics so it can't be the same "bro" like connection, it's also alot easier to relate when you are of the same species.

The same species?

I've never really got the whole 'bro' thing. If I was about to do something monumentally stupid, I would want the person at my side to be reasonable and strong willed enough to stop me from doing it in the first place.
My best female friend, on the other hand, is a complete head case. She could start a bar fight with a guy twice her size and then moan at me if I tried to point out the flaw in her logic.
She would probably say that I couldn't be her 'bro' because I am too 'girly'.

However, "Yeah brah, girls can be bro's. As long as they're Bi."

I would agree that the ability to check out women is a prerequisite for a 'bro' so being bi or gay is a given. My aforementioned friend will often point out hot girls in the street before I've even noticed them.

So, in conclusion, some girls are better suited to being 'bros' than some guys.

Well, a 'bro' is essentially a friend with whom you have a non-sexual yet exceedingly close and trusting relationship. If you have that kind of relationship with a girl which i know people to have they are in all important respects your 'bro'. Though the the term with it's natural gender connotations imply a certain number of y-chromosomes on the part of the applicant, the question of gender seems irrelevant to the discussion at it's core. In my opinion at least

I am often referred to as "bro" or "dude" by my guy friends. My one friend actually tells me that I'm a guy in every way except anatomically. They use me as their wingman and I do the same. I think it takes a certain kind of girl to be a bro, but I know from experience that it's possible.

 

[sheogoraththemad]

everyone can be my bro..

 

[Trasken]

Only if she's ugly. Otherwise sooner or later you'll try to bang her

 

[CrashBang]

I own an official copy of The Bro Code by Barney Stinson. This makes me awesome

OT: Yes. My friend Becky is my bro. She always stands by me when I need her and for whatever I need her

 

[Mimssy]

I'm pretty sure I'm considered one to a bunch of my male friends.

 

[Alon Shechter]

The Bro Code clearly says a bro is not necessarily a male, good sir!

 

[Halceon]

It's a concept, you can do what the hell you like with it.

Brodom is no concept. It is a way of life. Do not underestimate the power of a bro. Having someone willing to do anything for you, and someone you are willing to do anything for can be very useful, and dangerous, at times.

You know, there is a word that describes this very relationship AND has been in use since the dawn of english as a seperate language. The word is "friend", possibly with modifiers like "close" and "trusted" or, if you're feeling really sure, "best" and "devoted".

 

[Latinidiot]

Don't fuck ya bros. simple. if the woman is a close friend, she can be a bro.

 

[Mr Montmorency]

Lesbro?

 

[JayDub147]

Of course she can. Girl bros are chill as fuck.

 

[Adam Galli]

Yeah a girl can be a 'bro.' One of my closest friends is a girl and while i don't use the term personally, I would consider her a 'bro'

 

[michael87cn]

Eh, it's probably no worse than approaching a group of girls and saying "hey guys" instead of "hey girls" as a greeting.

 

[Simriel]

The Bro Code specifically states that a female can in fact be a Bro.

 

[Tom Phoenix]

Well, the saying goes "bros before hoes", right? Well, not all women are "hoes". Therefore, some women must be "bros"! =D

I know, a silly statement. But then again, this is a silly discussion.

 

[Dimensional Vortex]

I think they could, it seems that "bro" describes a persons commitment and helpfulness to another person, not there gender. But it is called "bro" so maybe that implies that they have to be male. Its pretty irrelevant though.

I doubt it, by your logic it would mean all girls are either Bros or Hoes, and most girls are neither.

 

[rutger5000]

She can, but she has to be gay. Otherwise it's a no, even then she still isn't really a full fledge bro, but she can suffice. My second best friend is a girl, but she isn't my bro and never will be. She's my sis.
Part of being a bro is also talking about girls and sex, that's a bit harder to do with a girl I would say. This problem is somewhat solved if the girl in question is gay, but still not quiet the same.

 

[GodofCider]

Sure, why not?
