It has been speculated that women do not endup in the friend zone as frequently as men. But where they may endup is in the
Bro Zone.
Though some consider it a male version of the friend zone; it is widely accepted that the
Bro Zone is worse for the poor women stuck in it.
In essence it is when a
woman is crowned "one of the guys." She's considered to be part of the dude pack without the sexual tension. Men behave without restraint around the individual; not worrying about what the
woman might think or wether they impress her or not. She is accepted and embraced into the pack as an equal. In short, "she's a dude."
Women may endup in the
Bro Zone by any of the following: easy going, friendly, social, accepting but also obsession with sports, curses
like a sailor, not too attractive, macho
like characteristics, butch
Women with mostly male friends are more susceptible to have several
Bro Zone's. Also, most women in the
Bro Zone do have a love interest they fail to impress because of the Zone. They endup listening to their
love interests' girlfriend problems and, at times, his sexual encounters. All culminating with him saying "you're such an awesome friend."
