I think Crack was exaggerating in his OP but his idea in general is correct.

Men who have female friends don't necessarily have them only because they want to have sex with them, but they probably would have sex with them if given the choice in an alternate universe. Yes I'm bringing up the alternate universe idea and yes it's valid and useful.
A better way of explaining it is that men can be friends with women, sure. But if the woman is attractive to the man, at all, he would have sex with her in an alternative universe. So basically he wants to have sex with you, but wouldn't, and values the friendship moreso than just for that.
That's the real debate here. There is a huge difference between men and women. Many men want to have sex with every female they find attractive, even their friends, while this idea doesn't seem to be as popular with the women. You don't hear about women saying that they want to have sex with every male friend they have.
This has been debated on TFP multiple times in years past. I'm glad it's brought up again -- it's a very interesting topic despite how shallow it seems. It really shows a biological, tribal difference between men and women and the uncontrollable urges we have and what triggers them.
