Ethics: Can Women And Men Be “Just Friends?”

I came across a fascinating blog post today at Christianity Today from a woman who teaches a class on sexuality and gender at Messiah College. She was discussing whether you should “friend” old fames on Facebook. Although this would only apply to those of us who use Facebook or some similar social networking site, the overall principle is quite a bit broader. Can women and men be “just friends?” After they’ve been “something more?” What about spouses who have gotten divorced? Well, we’ll discuss the ethical merits of all of these questions today.
