I think that friendly venting about trifles is a fine thing, but I've found that with either sex if they are willing to really complain - in a way that others might lose respect for their SO - the relationship is probably over. Not if they are 'really complaining' to a close friend. That means there are issues and the friend may help, but to the general populace? I've not been around guys so much that go out side the venting of trifles (always gets lost, forgets what she's saying :)). The ones that go outside of that, I generally already see as jerks. Hmm - I have a cold and may be babbling.
