About This Quote
Friendship was a concept men bandied about to save face when they were rejected. Friendship is something that men should never use to save face, however, it is something that women should use to save face. Women like to talk about their friends and love their friends, but men like to talk about their enemies and hate their enemies. Men don’t like to use the word “friendship” because they think that it makes them look weak, feminine, or soft. Women don’t mind using the word “friendship” because they think it makes them look strong, masculine, or hard.
