I hate the "why women are so mean about men friends developing romantic feelings towards them? are men not allowed to develop feelings? is it so bad to fall in love with friends?" rhetoric because it's just a misleading one. You're taking the problem backwards, the issue is why are women assumed to be manipulator for having male friends they don't want to have sex with? you realize that the moment a woman is not interested in a friend, she is seen as cruel for being open to stay friends or cutting ties either way. Theres always that joke when a guy is really kind to a female friend that "lol poor guy he is been waiting for so long" because women are expected to reward men with sex and romance or they're "entitled" to their time. They literally say it quite plainly "women hate when their friends fall in love with them because they want all the attention and kindness without the expectation of sex and relationships" they actually feel like it's owed to them. So yeah, theres probably a lot of women who feel sad when they learn a friend is developing romantic or sexual feelings. That doesn't mean they feel like sex is dirty, again it's displacing the problem. I feel like we should stigmatize people using "friendzone" a little bit more again, I feel with got too comfortable letting that narrative sit and have value again because of that so called "people have the right to develop feelings".
