This is really one of the dumbest myths out there. There is no reason why a guy has to choose between a guy friend or a girl. Guys rarely violate another guy's territory, something many guys call "The Guy Code". That code not only demands other guys respect their territory, it also demands guys not snitch on other guys if he cheats, goes to a strip bar, visits a prostitute, etc.
Notice girls don't have a "Girl Code". Two girls can be "BFF" one day, and the next day, will rip each other's eyes out for a guy. Clearly, there is far less drama in guy-guy friendships than for girl-girl friendships.
There's another reason why guys don't fight over girls the same way girls fight each other for a guy. Most girls desire popular guys, something I call the "Popularity Principle". Because of the Popularity Principle, it sets up frequent social situations where girls will need to compete with a friend over a particular guy. That's why 80% of the time, if a girl ends a friendship with another, it's because of a guy.
There is no such thing as "Popularity Principle" for guys. If a guy finds you unattractive, it doesn't matter how popular you become, he'll still think you're unattractive. Guys seek beauty first, and beauty is common enough so that guys don't need to battle each other.
In rare cases where a guy truly has to choose, guess what? HE WILL VERLY LIKELY CHOOSE THE GIRL. History has shown that guys will even choose a girl over his own family. Love exists for survival and replication. Girls provide those needs for a guy far more than a male buddy.
Many guys may say "bros before hos" to remind each another of the Guy Code. It's just a saying. Don't take it literally.
