Friend zoning is definitely just as much of a problem for girls as it is for guys. Due to life experiences, past and present, I can confidently categorize myself as being in the "bro zone" and have been dubbed as the "bro of the group."
I'm here to advocate on behalf of every girl in my position.
The tomboy that manifested itself inside me when I was a child has never fully left my body. I may know how to contour my face, but I also know how to hunt, fish and shotgun beer.
Growing up, I had a pretty equal number of boy and girl friends; however, as I've gotten older, my ratio of guy-to-girl friends has gotten larger- in favor of the guys. I'm not about to chalk it up to the generic excuse, "I just get along better with guys because there's no drama and I just hate girls," because I'd be lying to myself. Guys and girls both have drama amongst themselves, as well as life in general.
The difference between the two kinds of drama lies in how they handle it. In my experiences, guys aren't afraid of confrontation and bringing things to each other's attention at the first inkling of a problem. Because of this, issues are usually resolved faster. Girls, on the other hand, are extremely passive aggressive, and feuds and disagreements are prolonged or exaggerated into bigger situations than they were originally.
I have a very small circle of girls I keep close to me, and one girl in particular, my best friend, whom I trust completely. In fact, I can count my circle of friends on one hand. Likewise, I have one guy friend I trust as much as my best girlf riend, but in contrast to my small circle of girl friends, I have a significantly larger group of guys I consider brothers. I can go to them with any problem, knowing they'll have my best interests at heart.
I personally pride myself on being the "bro" of the group. I like that both parts of my personality are appreciated. I love having friends who feel like older brothers to me-- who roast me just as much as they protect me. I love shopping sprees as much as I love watching football with the guys on Sundays.
Yes, it's possible to be both and no, there's nothing wrong with it.
