"The Bro Zone"

I'm sure you've all heard of the notorious "Friend Zone": that deep pit guys fall into when a person of the opposite sex places them in the "friend" category rather than the "potential lover" category.
Once Friend Zone status has been reached, it's nearly impossible to squirm your way out of.
But you already know about that.
I am here today to introduce you to something new.
Ladies and gentlemen, meet "The Bro Zone"
Now, the Bro Zone is very similar to the Friend zone, but there are some major differences.

1. The Bro Zone is a female death-trap, not a male one.
2. It's may be easier to get out of the Bro Zone than it is to get out of the Friend Zone .
3. While The Friend Zone is widely known and recognized, The Bro Zone remains below radar.


When a girl is put into the Bro Zone, it's usually because she has more of what you might call "masculine" qualities. Though I think that's a load of BS, it's the best way I can find to describe it.
Generally, a Bro Zoned girl is more of a Tomboy or Geek. You'll rarely find her in a mini skirt, and she probably enjoys things like football and video games.
She gets along great with guys, and so she has a lot of guy friends. She may or may not like any number of these guys, but finds herself outside the radar of their attraction meter.
Off the map of their hunting zone.
Bypassed by the love bus.
Whatever the hell you want to call it.
Now, I myself have been Bro Zoned enough to make me sick, but that doesn't mean I'm "looking" for a guy, or even that I like any of these dudes.
Never the less, I do find it aggravating in it's own special way.
Not only are you disregarded as someone who could be "relationship-worthy", but you can also be subject to random "guy talk" about other women, which can definitely get on the nerves.
The Bro Zone is like The Friend Zone in that you KNOW you'd be better for these guys than that random chick they have their eye on.
Again, not saying I'm desperate or even like these guys, but I can still see that what they're going after just isn't cutting it.
You're the one who plays video games with them for hours.
You're the one who puts up with their disgusting dialog.
You're the one who understands them better then they do at times.
But, still, you're pushed aside for the next dumb blond.
It gets old.
It's not even that I can get jealous, or that I want a boyfriend.
It's the utter disregard for how, well,  sexual ((  Definition (#2)  )) I am!
And who knows? Maybe one day I'd like to wear cute matching couple T-shirts with one of these guys, and I don't want that to be nigh on impossible.
So, please, stop Bro Zoning me!
Thanks.
