Homosociality implies neither heterosexuality nor homosexuality. Some have suggested using the term iso-social as a more neutral alternative: since iso-social does not contain the prefix homo, it does not bring to mind the words homosexual and homophobic.
For example, a heterosexual male who prefers to socialize with men may be considered a homosocial heterosexual. The term homosociality is most often used with reference to male relationships.
"Bromance" is also used to refer to a close but non-sexual relationship between two men.
