Not every attractive lady I see or talk to do I see as an sexual object.

I only have one male friend that I met when we worked together. We had a very short lived romance about 10 years ago, but since then it's just grown more and more in to a friendship that will likely last forever. Maybe I'm curious whether he thinks about me that way, because I never think about him that way now.
I think where he's going with this is that men think sexually about almost all women, even if it's just to think "Geez, I don't think I could.....".

It doesn't mean men are incapable of seeing women on MULTIPLE levels simultaneously. Just that there IS that one level and a lot of men can't help but think on that level about most women at least once...

What if the woman is his sister?

I say why not?
While men on the outside just see an attractive woman - a potential sex object - there's often a guy in a relationship with her who is fed up with her s**t.

Of course, they don't have to be attractive for this to happen - it depends on his cost of leaving - but this is far more prevelent in the "sex object" end of the spectrum.

Probably better to have a platonic relationship.

Of course we are not talking about relatives. However, in some states, that's perfectly acceptable.
