Beer Drinking Cave Man

Male friendships are weird... we show affection very differently to our female counterparts. We have our own special caveman language... that only men can understand LOL.

My best mate Luke called tonight and his opening line was ''Gday Monkey Nuts''. My response was ''Hey Elephant Shit, how are ya mate?''. Perfectly normal behaviour for us LOL. Our male minds believe the more disgusting of a greeting we can conjure up, the better. It doesn't mean we dont get sentimental... we do. But as a species we are too homophobic to hug each other like girls do... the thought of facial hair touching is just not right. So we avoid man hugs like the plague. But our friendship is so much more than just beer drinking cavemen that wave fire torches around. I still remember practicing good old 'Elephant Shits best-man speech for his wedding a thousand times over cus I wanted it just perfect for him. And I still remember the night he spent 8 hours on the phone to me when I needed him the most. Friendships with girls... are totally different. My closest female friend is proof that caveman and girl can have a close friendship without going down the 'friends with benifits' road. I've known her 7 years... but we've been through so much shit together it honestly feels more like 20. We've worked together twice, been camping together and been each others drinking buddies forever. We spent 6 weeks in Canada together, and have travelled to Europe, Singapore and Vanuatu together. We've slept in the same bed more times than I can possibly remember. Have we SLEPT TOGETHER??? Not once. Never. Dont believe me... LOL you wouldn't be the only one. And no... she is not gay, doesn't have a moustache and weighs a lot less than 284 kg. She is actually a very attractive girl. And yes, all my male organs work just fine thank you very much. Its just the way our friendship is. To be honest... I'd be lying if I said the thought had never crossed my mind, but Im sure she'd say the same thing. But you know what... its just awesome to have a female friend who I can chat in bed with and not worry about anything.
MALE and FEMALE friendships.... SAME SAME.... BUT DIFFERENT :-)
