Platonic Freindship

A study that aimed to get respondents to approximate what percentage of their friends had a close but platonic cross-sex relationship. The average for teens was 73 percent; for 20somethings, 59 percent; for 30somethings through 50somethings, about half; and for 60somethings, 24 percent. The trend could be taken to mean that younger (unmarried, unattached) people are more likely to form cross-sex friendships in any era. But it could also reveal something about the time in which we live: Maybe it's much easier to make cross-sex friends now than it's ever been. 

its the meeting of a kindred spirit in form of the other sex. a person you can let loose and just be friends.Is this possible?  it is said that men never go out of their way to keep female friends unless they have an agenda, an motive.
