I would say - 100% yes - men and women can have friendships without sexual overtones or romantic feelings. Most of my friends are guys - and most guys I know would rather have friends that are girls.
Being 24 is not young. I'm 24, and I think I do myself a disservice when I tell myself, "Oh well, I'm only 24." I think that aids in keeping a childish mentality in some ways, and doesn't fully encourage us to take on adult responsibilities.
My mom looks at me crazy when I say "well, I'm only 24." She says, "24 is an adult age. You should act like one, and learn to see yourself as part of the adult world with tremendous responsibilities."
