Pfft...sexually attractive is far different than simply being attractive. If there's no desirability then it's easy since there's no tension.

I'm skeptical of that because every time I've seen an available man and woman in the same age group who claim to be 100% content just being friends I always get the sense that it's actually because one of them is less adequate than the other and that their purely platonic friendship is just the result of an asymmetry. I've personally never seen an equal sided platonic friendship between available and straight men and women.

What people really mean when they say men and women can't be friends is that they cannot see themselves being friends with someone of the opposite gender and are applying that to humanity as a whole. Which is like saying that because you don't like pizza...nobody else likes pizza either.
Sure they can if there is no physical or romantic attraction between them. It's kind of hard to just settle for being just friends with someone you have a serious crush on. That's what I think anyway.

Yes, and if I knew anyone that said no I wouldn't let them around family member of the opposite sex (same sex if they were gay)

the same way I can acknowledge that my relatives are attractive and yet have absolutely no interest in smashing them. same way I can look at statues in a museum and go, damn, look at that muscle definition and yet have no interest in having sex with a statue. same way I can admire someone's mind as much if not more than their body and be more interested in their mind.
how can you go about your life when you want to smash every attractive person is what confuses me, TBH.
I've yet to see any proof women are actually real, so I suppose you could keep things banal with your imaginary friend.
Sure but the spirit of the question implies that you're excluding socially unacceptable people such as your family members and married people and that you're controlling for variables like age and attractiveness. If you don't properly interpret the question then yeah I can understand why there is so many people who find this to be an absurd topic.
I am sure they can, but people will probably respond tot his question differently according to their own experiences in life.
What do you mean? Can you elaborate?
The question doesn't make any sense otherwise. In the video in the OP all the college guys who answered 'no' obviously understood that the question applies to their peers and not to their aunts and uncles.Where do you get that implication in a 7 word question?

If you think you can't be friends with a female cause you might lust after them shows you barely have your sexuality under control. I wouldn't trust you around any females I know.
Sure it does. Aunts and uncles and the like only reinforce that idea that it very much is possible.
