... And why; Also, is it one sided? Are these relationships meaningful; Does the environment affect this in an obvious way?( ex. School, work, etc), and if it does, is it the same outside of this environment?

Men.

Probably because i have mars in a female sign (cancer) and moon conjunct pluto and mars square pluto.

They're (broads) always antagonistic toward me, always, even if im minding my own business. I don't even take it personally anymore, i kinda just roll my eyes and mosey along.

Men.. Since I know for myself, I 've always been better with them, find their stories, themes, conversation more interesting, they are better friends and it is always fun with them, no boring women stories..

I am woman btw. Capricorn Sun, Scorpio rising, Cancer Mars, Aquarius Venus. Maybe my Venus tells a lot.

For me it's more about the way they act and present themselves. I get along with people who are more like "in between". Don't really get along with people who are very stereotypically girly/feminine or macho, man's man..etc... Well, to be fair I probably don't mind that much, but ime it was hard for me to see eye to eye with people like that. They'd make some comment about how women/men were supposed to act, and I'd be like "hell no". I attribute this to cap sun/asc, aries moon. Although my 12th house stellium sort of helps me to have some fondness for people and find most interesting.

Hmm... When I was working as a nurse, holy hell I really didn't get along with most of the women I met in that field though. It was ok with some of the younger ones and most of the men. I don't know if it was typical of the nursing culture, after all I only worked in that field for a while before I got out and never looked back.

Both.
Maybe because I have Sun in 11th house (Sun masculine, 11th house friends) and Sun trine Moon. Venus in Aquarius conjunct MC (I once read that this means good relationship with women).

I enjoy to have a good relationship with women and men. Women and men are different but I find almost everyone interesting.

May I ask, why do you ask this?

I'd say mostly men, though it depends on the person.
I don't like to generalize.

Depends, leaning towards feminine people. I have Mars in Gemini, lots of Aries in my chart and a Taurus moon. Makes sense why I would.

I've always wished I could have a platonic friendship with guys though. When I tried there was always undercurrents and I wasn't interested.

Exactly the same with both. No difference.

Who I get along with depends on personality, not gender.

I attribute this to my close Venus trine Mars aspect... and the people I know who have issues with either gender - usually have the Venus/Mars opposition or the square.

I can't say that I get on with either "better". Both tend to bore me in differing ways.

But it seems that I gravitate more to women than men at work.

I tend to find women to be better conversationalists than men generally.

I attribute this to Moon in 3rd on the cusp of the 4th. Mars in Libra on the cusp of the 7th.

Generally I have observed that masculine Moon sign women don't get on with other females.

And men with feminine/neutral sign Mars are often seen as "soft" or "too emotional" by other guys. Cap Mars seems to be an exception to this.

Sadly, it is typical of that field. I'm in the process of getting out of it myself and going back to school.

To the OP:

Definitely men. My DSC is in Virgo so I tend to attract calm, grounded, analytical and quiet men. I would much rather be around these types. I have lots of Moon, Venus and Mars squares, so maybe that's why I've always gotten along better with them than with women.

As a general rule, I get along with better with men, but my closest friendships tend to be with a few women.

And another general rule is that the women I get especially close to tend not to get along with other women (sometimes neither women nor men) as they're quirky and quite odd, but accepting oddness in others (otherwise, we wouldn't be close since those who do get that close to me realize I'm pretty odd myself).

Also of note, the reason I usually don't get very close with guys (or not for long) is because other women (wife, SO, etc) gets jealous or otherwise feels threatened by me. Though one guy's wife was very friendly to me, yet she kept saying things that made me realize she felt threatened by me, and her new husband (an old friend of mine) just cut off all contact with me without explanation, and I'm sure it was his wife that made him do so. He and I had been good friends up until then, and I'd even encouraged him to marry her as I thought she was a good woman for him who wouldn't mistreat him as his previous wives had done. Damn the insecurities of people.

I think upbringing has something to do with it, but astrologically speaking, I'd guess having a yang/male chart (Leo/Libra/Sag, only Jupiter is Scorpio, not counting asteroids, and my two stelliums are in yang/male houses as well) may make it easier for me to relate to guys more, at least on a casual basis.

I'm going to regret saying this, I'm a guy that would say he would prefer women and Platonic friendships.

Generally I'm finding that you can have much deeper conversations with women then with men.

Its mutually beneficial to have someone you can trust to talk and listen to, just makes both peoples day better

I work with mostly science/engineering types so its almost pure ego for the Males that work in that field, its almost as if its an Athletic competition.

My Cappy ascendant would like something with some status, but I think it gets tiresome.

Rarely can I openly admit and show my faults with guys.

At least with women you can have that close friendship were your not afraid to show your faults. If shes comfortable enough and trust you she might do the same.

Maybe its my solar return because I would normally be saying otherwise.

I love men and I strive to surround myself with the outcasts and oddball dudes, because I am a very jealous Leo female!

Cancer rules my house of adversaries, and moon is in the house of hidden enemies, so yeah.... I usually don't have good relations with women. Unless you and I click very well and become longtime acquaintances, like a few girls I used to know in high school.

Well no wonder why the turnover rate is high. I thought of staying, but then I thought "Oh well, life is too short to spend on this crp".

I wish you the best of luck Hope that you'll find a career that you enjoy and a job in a nice environment.

I definitely prefer the company of women over men. It's not that I don't get along with with men I'm just not as comfortable around them. I have my Venus in the 11th house and my moon is in the 4th so I assume that's why I prefer having women as friends and am more comfortable around them.

I have my Mars loosely conjunct my asc from the 12th. Mars also squares my Sun/Mercury (chart ruler). I can get along with men but in general I'm much more suspicious of their motives so I haven't had many as friends. The friendships that I have had were never especially close or meaningful.

Please don't pin that on all Leo women. Im not a jealous hearted woman at all; i prefer men because generally women are jerks to me. I don't seek out outcasted men out of jealousy either. I do like unusual men, but thats because i have so much in common with them, not because of some strange insecurity or belief that no on else would want them (which is most certainly a lie) so then my place is secure as the center of their universe.

I had to say something about this because some people will read this kinda thing and think your way is typical of all Leo women when it isn't. No offense.

Men, definitely men! I've had very few close relationships with women. The women of my immediate family I get on well with...mostly, but besides that, I have a few long time girlfriends from high school and not many my age otherwise, they are usually my elder. I get a threatened vibe from most women I have tried to befriend, and then it usually turns into a one-sided competition...where I just end up cutting contact with them or I find myself pulling the knife out my back. I would attribute this to my Leo Moon in the 12th square my Scorpio Pluto in the 3rd, and quincunx my Cappie Neptune in the 5th. Men are just easier to me...less complicated. Somehow, I can have very deep connections with men...where women usually leave me scratching my head, confused! Most guys I am friends with tell me deeply personal things...without me ever asking, it just spills out of them! I think maybe my Leo Merc conj Asc has something to do with this, or the quintile my Pluto bestows upon them both Really though, this bothers my husband...that I can't really form solid relationships with women...I think HE feels threatened that I jive well with men, and they are usually easy going around me. He is a Virgo Sun and Cancer Moon and Rising. I prefer sports and some hobbys that are considered "manly". And "helpless" woman (the ones who whine when they talk, or act like they "can't" do things b/c they are somehow fragile and dainty since they are a woman) make me furious...I have little patience for that mentality. My mom has always had this saying "Can't never could do anything!" and I guess it stuck with me through the years. This I would say could be my Sun and Mars exact conjunct in Cancer (12th H), trine my Saturn. I guess I am just fickle when it comes to who I choose to associate with, lol. Also I have Gemini Venus in the 10th trine Aqua Jupiter...another push towards relationships with men. Hmm...

I think I gravitate more towards men in a group setting because I find being around very traditionally "feminine" women difficult. I don't relate to them as well. It's hard to explain. I consider myself feminine and yet it's difficult for me to express feminine energy. I only truly get along well with women that express some masculine energy.

I have a Gemini Sun (in 10th), Scorpio Moon (in 3rd), Leo Venus (in 11th), Capricorn Mars (in 4th).

I think men are just easier to get along with. Women can be catty and competitive with each other. Especially if you're pretty, I feel like some women automatically feel like they have to compete against you, without even getting to know you. Most women are quite emotional too, and I have found that some are so touchy and sensitive. The slightest thing upsets them, but they're passive-aggressive so they'll just let their anger build and build without trying to work it out with the person they're mad at.

Men on the other hand are usually more laid back. If they have an issue with someone, they'll say it and then be done with it. I've always been a bit of a tomboy. I played a lot of sports growing up and I find guys are just easier to be myself around. With girls I feel like I have to always be 'on' or else they'll judge me, unless I'm already good friends with them.

I have Venus and Mars in Aries, which I hear is a placement that gets along with men more than women

For most post I feel more comfortable around woman and can almost relax when I'm with them

Men I usually don't feel comfortable with but most people would never know because I have had a lot of male friends... When I get to know them I'm comfortable but when we are just acquaintences it's a little off

But yeah I would be friends with either. Once we are friends and have hung out a few times it's a piece of cake

I feel comfortable around men. There's something about my personality that resonates with guys, so I understand them pretty well. The problem is when one of them gets attracted to me. That creeps me out since I don't like men very much romantically.

I get along nicely with most women, but then I might get more attracted than expected and then it's weird because of me. LOL. I start acting like a typical crab in an underwater cave (Mars and Venus in Cancer :-( )I love women very much but I don't know how to deal with the stuff some few stir in me. So bah...whatever.

This is difficult to answer or easy to answer and difficult to understand? and to explain.
I am 54, When I was yooouuunnng I hung out with girls more than my male peers, And I mean back at that age when young boys hadn't discovered ,,, well the joy of the difference.To me it was like, why don't you want to hang out with the girls?
It was this way at least until my mid 30s, before I even had a male click of friends outside of work.
Maybe being into astrology in my early 20s
made me a chick magnet, I dunno.
Libra rising,Mars in Libra sextile both Venus and Moon in Leo I suppose, Jupiter exactly on IC adds something that I think people feel quick in person as well.
