The belief stems from the more common belief that it is impossible for (straight) people to have platonic friends of the opposite s** because at some point, they will be romantically or sexually attracted to the person.

Insecure people in particular are uncomfortable or hostile to the idea of their partner being friends with people they could potentially be attracted to later on (and sometimes, it does happen that way)
