npub1psdfxfpxz2cwmmnsk60y3nqpn2tqh9n24h4hstvfkwvr6eaek9js499sr7 (npub1psd…9sr7) Well, we still have people thinking men and women can't be friends. I think that certainly in some earlier generations the idea that wife is for housekeeping, social functions and sex, and same-gender friends are for actual human bonding was very powerful.

My grandparents were married for 50 years, brought up 3 kids together and ran a farm together. They had whole months of not actually talking to each other, because they did not care about the other's inner life.
