I don't care about gender, gender is completely irrelevant to me when it comes to friends: if I like someone, I do regardless of that, and if I hate someone's guts I do regardless of that as well so there's no point, really.
I did vote women thought, because *in general* I'm a *little bit* more likely to find myself more comfortable around them, but it's a close call.
I'm honestly surprised, thought, at how many people state that men are "more accepting" and somehow don't throw bitchy fits over the most trivial things. I don't know whether this is brainwash by relentless repetition of stereotypes or I just happen to have the bad luck of knowing a lot of drama-prone men.
