I've had male, heterosexual friends in the past. It was okay, but I definitely feel a deeper connection to women and their cultures than to men. I have a hard time trusting men. I also find myself thinking that most of them are homophobic. I know that's probably not true, but it's just a prejudice I have and it's very strong. I've never had any problems with women, and I've even been able to get along with homophobic women. The current shift to the right, which is particularly strong among men, doesn't help either. There are many good men, and these days you see more and more men openly supporting LGBT+ rights and sometimes even engaging with LGBT+ culture. Maybe one day things will change and I'll be able to trust men more.
