The friendship part, however, means you'll support the person when they need it, won't fuck them when they're down or drunk and listen to things they wanna talk about. Not because they supply good material for fantasies, but simply because you care.

I guess it all comes down to everyone being different and having different friends and thinking of friends differently than the next person. What I consider friends, are people I'd never even think about sexually... maybe because I'm a female and don't think about sex as much as an average guy does. Who knows... but from my experience and from what I can tell, male/female friendships (offline) don't always work the same as same sex friendships. Too much sexual tension and hidden agendas. But again, to each his own.
To answer your original question in this post, guys with female friends end up with dinner and movie type of things, because guys can have the benefits of dating a woman with no strings attached, no one to answer to or have to be faithful to, yet still do all the normal dating stuff. I'm sure women do the same... they like to have someone to lean on, but don't have to worry about hurting them, if someone better comes along that they want to have a relationship with. Male/female friendships are practice for upcoming relationships.
