My suspicion, and this thread seems to support it, is that many more guys than gals are willing to consider another as a FB.

I don't think that it's just a social stigma thing, that is, girls not wanting to be perceived as "that kind of girl."

I believe that it gets down a lot closer to the chemical makeup of the sexes. On the whole, guys do not have as strong of an urge to make a permanent bond as girls do. Be it the primal need to care for offspring, or what ever, it's there.

Likewise, guys, on the whole, are a lot more interested in casual and non comitial relationships.

The results are the same as they have always been, Guys feign more commitment than they actually feel, girls sometimes pretend to have less interest in a relationship than is really there.

But to answer your question, yes, they do exist but more often in the mind of the guy. You find very few girls who explain a guy as “oh, he’s just a guy that I sleep with sometimes.”
