Do you think men and women have similar kinds of friendships?
In some respects, yes, but I don't know. I think men perhaps behave differently with their male friends than women do with their female friends,
and perhaps male and female friends behave differently with each other than they perhaps would with friends of the same sex. But it depends on the person, really.
No, I think they have quite distinct ... I think women tend to be - we're talking stereotypically - women tend to be a lot more personal. It's about-
you talk about what you're feeling and, you know, your personal history or things like that.
I think men tend to be a lot more, I don't know, interested in the here and now.
And the basis of communication is, you know, having fun or exchanging opinions, doesn't- not, not tend- they don't tend to be like ...
about your history or about your feelings or anything like that. It's very much based on just having a laugh.
Whereas women tend to communicate to support each other and learn about each other, I think.
Well I think the basis of loyalty and being there for one another is there, but I think women tend to talk more about how they're feeling and express themselves,
their emotions, whereas men keep those kind of things more reserved and maybe are more proactive, like, will go out ... go out or go and do something, more than talk.
