    And pretty much everyone thinks you want to cheat on them.

    Wait, why is that? Do they think that because your possible partners is doubled (over heterosexual people) that your likelihood to cheat is also doubled? Even then, isn’t zero doubled still zero?

      This isn’t, like, officially a thing. No one demands this. But culturally, it is very much a thing that lots of people only really have friends to which they’re categorically not attracted.

      There’s this whole concept of certain friend group activities being gendered, like watching sports is a thing men typically do with other (hetero) men.

      Of course, it does also just make friendships less complicated, if it’s clear from the start that no one wants romance.
