At say 40 and married, is it usual to make just a female friend as a male? Probably not. Possible, yes, but unlikely.
In my instance, at 18,19,20, I think making a female friend is a lot more likely and socially acceptable.

To me, presenting a different point of view but being disrespectful to the people you are discussing the topic with is a poor look. The discussion went from what could have been an interesting and fun back and forth, to just insulting people that have/believe in a different situation that you do.
