Why do all of my guy friends tease me all the time? Are they being mean, friendly, affectionate? Why do guys like to tease so much?

All of my guy friends bust on me all the time. They really like being sassy to me and saying stuff that makes me make my my Im gonna choke you face then they smile real big. They also like to talk about sexual stuff around me a lot. They like to try to scandalize me. They like it when I talk dirty or we play cards against humanity and I pick the dirtiest thing possible. Today my best guy friend jokingly threatened to stick scissors up my ass, open them and twist. What's up with that? I know he was totally kidding but that seemed really weird and sexual to say to a female friend. Unless he considers me more of a dude? How do guys work this out? We flirt a lot, so I don't think that's it.

Is this just how guys normally treat female friends? Should I think they're just acting like I'm one of the guys? They don't tease me the same way they tease each other, though. They just call each other fags and stupid and stuff. They never say mean or insulting stuff, just like picking on
me if I drop something or make a mistake and they talk to me like I'm a 5 year old who's adorable but retarded. I don't get it.

Teasing is friendly fun and I'm one of the guys

Teasing is flirting

They're teasing to be mean

My guy friends have always done the same thing. They've never done it in the intention to be mean. They're more extreme with you instead of the guys because you're female and if they said to to the other guys that would seem too gay. Playful banter is all it is. Try throwing it back and they might tell you if they're into you as more than friends

I do, but it varies by how into them I am.

[docmeister]

they are trying to shock you and you are form of entertainment for the boys.

suggest they don't treat you badly because you are a girl.

why do you hang out with guys only not girls?

Girls my age are boring stupid drama queens. They have no personality and are no fun. Guys are exciting and challenging.

Hun, if you can't forage meaningful relationships with girls/women your age... there's an issue. Surely your males friends "jokelingly" saying they'll stick scissors up your butt or other strange and sadistic things is not better...
