I may not be articulating his message exactly they way he expressed it, but you get the drift.

Kitty, that was supposed to be a joke - albeit, poorly executed- I would never think that, if we did give the group a name, that would be your choice.

I'm sorry but I don't buy the idea that men can't be friends with women without sexual feelings. I've had guy friends - and no, they were not gay - who were good friends and we'd hang out and do things we both liked to do. Nothing wrong with watching a cable movie at each other's house with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and just enjoying each other's company without it becoming a romp.
