I thought of it some more o think you might want to remove part where you say you are looking for a "friend ". That could mean you are not looking for a relationship or looking for casual etc which could be ok but ladies who want a relationship might not reply. I didn't reply to men who looked for a date or a friend, only the ones who were looking for a girlfriend/relationship.

Btw my daughter is bisexual with no gender preference and her girlfriends were intellectually and personality wise kind of same as boyfriends (more girlfriends though and one was live in for 4 years). I think when you are looking for certain qualities they will manifest themselves in either gender. I am just going by hers and her friends experiences. I don't pretend to know as I am heterosexual

Overall men and women although do have many differences are very much alike. People are people.
