Great host but “some” bad contestants! The unnecessary attitudes, jokes, and cockiness is so annoying to see. Also this is finding love not no damn friendship! Be honest but be respectful
Pink Panther definitely gaslit the 3rd dude. He basically described effeminate without saying the actual word, and then tried to act like he was crazy for calling him out. That ego will keep you single.
Everyone in their 20s and 30s just laughing and being weird. This is why the community is a joke when it comes to dating. Don’t pick these contestants again.
white shirt with sunglasses legit popped because the guy popped the OTHER guy. so stupid. and the way he waited until after he chose. literally the point of the show 😂
I think some of the dudes lined up were too immature, especially the 37 year old popping peoples balloons and being overly explicit. He’s the oldest yet act a fool, that’s wild. The dude on the end was extra too, he got better as the show progressed. The guys who came out seemed more out together, they needed better contestants.
Little do these young brothas realize on these shows is that the type of dudes they are looking for will be little to none, especially as they grow more into themselves, professions, life experience, and maturity level. When you are in your 20s, you think you have an ocean of opportunities, but as you get older, you start to realize you have a stream of opportunities to find love! Trying to sound too cool, seeing things through superficial lenses, sexualizing others, and self-sabotaging an opportunity will create a door of misfortune!
That part the nervous laughter and not being able to hold it together is the worst we definitely need a 30+ or 32+ episode but inwouldnt be suprised if it still givin 21 yo its the gays we talkin bout
That part! Cause all of us in his age group watching for entertainment while he literally participating! We married, got kids, deep in our careers and about to evolve to creating our own companies. But he SINGLE and at deep as a skillet of bad grease! Just a petty! Fact is, he want the dude beside him that he popped his balloon! That's what's happening here! That's why he pretending to be so hard. A petty mess! He should be laughing at what he do for a living at that age!
Bro sick and cap!! Dude lie and cheat the entire relationship. Lied and said his ex got him raped at agangbang. Til I spoke to his ex and got the truth. Nothing wrong with being positive but he lied on how he became positive. He was a hoe and went to a gang band behind his ex back!! 😂😂😂😂
1. This was allot of ppls first time on a open show so of course most of them were nervous. 2. It was Houston based with the locals there so of course most would know each other, its TEXAS PPL 3. The show was definitely a show and i look forward to seeing the next episode
I like the premise of the show, I think it has a lot of potential to be great and I like the host too. But the contestants need to be vetted better. The immaturity, jokes, clap backs, toxicity is really unnecessary and looks really bad. Hopefully future episodes will improve.
Agreed. Everyone deserves love, AND I wish they would could do a better job of selecting emotionally mature individuals who are truly open to relationships on these shows.
The reason there’s not a vetting process is because this is a reflection of what we encounter in our experience. We never know what we’ll get until we meet it and get to know it. Everyone is deserving of love! Hopefully the dialogue and behavior we see from episode to episode spark convos like this where we all grow better and more mature in our socialization! That’s the goal. Thank you so much for watching!🎈
@@Trackz_Official I can understand wanting to reflect the reality but I feel like that is something other pop the balloon channels already do and it could set your show apart if the contestants had a better chance at finding what they're looking for.
Pink Panther jacket is gaslighting the fck out of that boy. He said he sees her as "hey sis"....cut it out! Ole boy next to him tried to front on him in front of the lineup. Stop. It.
I really hate childish people, the children, I mean constants laughing for no damn reason at all is so stupid and ridiculous, they all need to remain single until they grow the hell up
@@Kk-fj5tn I’m a journalist and have interviewed several individuals and I can tell you from professional experience, this is not nervousness, it’s childish. Laughing out loud with others when someone just walks in the room is a tactic to embarrass that person and make them feel small or less than and it’s not a good trait to have. I would suggest until they work on this behavior, they not go on dating shows or date period because mature adults won’t tolerate it.
I hope the host or production sees this. This entire group of guys aren’t ready. They were laughing and talking about sexual stuff. Nobody had a conversation of substance. I like the voting conversation. Get some guys ages 25 and older, preferably 30 and older who has more things going on. Gay guys love esthetics over substance. True love and relationships will never happen because there is a lack of maturity with gay people and nobody takes the time to actually communicate as grown men. Y’all gotta get some grown men who is on their shit who really want something more than sex.
You and I are on the same page. However, I want to be clear... there is nothing wrong with young, fun, off the wall energy. That vibe definitely has its place on this show. To mix it up, from time to time, I would like to see older contestants. I want to see if that brings a different element to the show. So, I am not suggesting you abandon the younger guys. They are fun to watch and their perspective is the present and future of the black, gay community. Still, I would like to see older contestants on the show. Thanks for reading this!
The truth is, i can’t necessarily control WHO applies lol I welcome all ages, all mindsets, all personalities…. Because that’s what we experience in the dating pool. We meet youngsters, we meet seasoned, some are immature, some are polished…we never really know until we spark convos and engage. That’s what this is representing. When we encounter guys who “aren’t ready” in real life, we ‘pop their balloon’ and move on in life to the next person. There will be people on these episodes who range in persona, demeanor, and personality. I welcome all and shine a light on the socialization process so we can all watch and see what we are good at and what work we still need to do, ya know? I hope it grows to become better and better and that people are able to connect on core desire and interest that grows. I truly appreciate the feedback, it means so much. If you know older people who might be interested, please encourage them to apply! They definitely have a place here! Thanks for watching!🩶🎈
I think there should be room for these types of guys. This is what a lot of us younger gays experience in the dating pool, very not serious hookup culture type guys. It really shows how the community can be.
People actually don’t know but Nons Miraj a female Nigerian influencer actually is the creator of pop the balloon game show. Arlette just blew up with it.
Nope am a big fan of hers, but she is not the original creator either ! It’s just none Miraj and arlette blew up ! I had seen many creators from the Uk and US who were already doing it
Agreed but the shag is a HARD hairstyle to pull off. Imo he didn't pull it off. Especially since it was so thick in the back. Otherwise Contestant one was very good looking and good natured!
Arlette is not the creator of Pop the Balloon or Find Love but she definitely set the bar high with her husband. I can tell you are a great host. Very well spoken.
Deshawn stands out as the most physically attractive man and also the most respectful. Trackz did an excellent job as a host for this first episode, I hope to see more follow with higher quality men.
Maybe do it in a format where the positions choose one another. Like - tops are contestants and the bottoms are lined up and vice versa to not have the automatic pops based on assumptions of position.
You did a great job as a host, probably the best host I've seen so far on queer balloon pop episodes. Also, the poppers monologue had me on the floor lmao
TRAX DID HIS BIG ONE STEPPING OUT AND DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT! YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO SET SOME GROUND RULES FOR THE PARTICIPANTS. THE POPPERS CONVERSATION WAS "CRAZY WORK"! THE INTERNET COULD'VE DONE FINE WITHOUT IT WITHOUT A DOUBT. WE DONT NEED FOLKS THINKING HES A DEMONSTRATION OF US ALL.! DEFINITELY SUPPORTING THIS THOUGH.
tickle monster, the whole episode, had the nerve to ask ole boy what was funny… and this was after, during and before continuing to laugh at nothing 😭😭😭
Facts 💯💯that’s a turn off to me I could not take all that laughing I would need a little more structure I know it’s a dating show, but I just couldn’t take it. I will have to have a little bit more mature people one thing I cannot stand is a person laughing in a serious moment, especially if you really trying to date each other
bring contestant one back! I believe his name was Montrel he's so handsome, has a good job, a bit shy maybe but very cute! these were not the right guys for him! Love the Host as well he did really well keeping everyone on track but still allowing a bit of time for the goofiness which is what made this episode so hilarious
You did an AMAZING job for the first episode. Your energy and personality is great and keeps the show going. Please keep the episodes coming. I really enjoyed it. I am looking forward to many more episodes.
Contestant 1 was very reserved & shy which was very attractive to him and unfortunately in this setting didn’t really work out for him after all Contestant 2 had some word choices that were interesting to say the least but was very confident and strong about his choices and opinions at least Contestant 3 seemed goofy from the start but rambled a lot unfortunately which kinda annoyed the lineup so sometimes short answers are best But he brought the spice for sure regardless Contestant 4 looks like he was ready for an interview for modeling or something idk the look was simple but effective very eloquent and articulated person with a little sass to him that give him a little edge and a drag face fan love that for him Contestant 5 aesthetic really shifted the line up and was very distinct and it’s sad that the look is what made most people pop because the lineup kinda had similar type for the most part but happy he left with a match regardless Side notes this was a first episode so the intention is good lineup could be bigger at least 8/10 men holding balloons and a more diverse one everyone aesthetic was kinda similar not necessarily their personality but the way and even with the bachelors coming up trying to have more versatility in the casting of both will make it way better to represent a bit more people from the community instead of just one particular style will tune it to see how the series go ✨
✨Can WE PLEASE CHANGE how the show is being done. For example: 1. When someone comes out, NO ONE, should pop there ballon. 2. The Host should have the Date ask the contestants ONLY personality based questions. NON-political, religious, sexually explicit based questions. 3. Based on whatever the first question is than the contestants should be able to Pop their ballon ONLY based on that question or two so and so forth. As a community we need to STOP looking for superficial confirmation and find someone on a matching energy based level. There’s a reason why so many people are single because everyone is hella picky and go based off looks. People don’t realize how many they’ll vibe with based on energies rather then their physical appearance. If you choose to want to be in a relationship it’s based off of matching energies but if all you’re lookin at is how they “look” then You are NOT ready at all to be in a relationship. Point blank periodt.✨
To long of a process you should know on sight and within a few questions if its gone work hell even this was drawn out but good questions was asked as many ballons was popped a lot of time was saved
I definitely agree he was a shallow host he didn’t even ask questions that were important they were always very basic. To be honest this show is very degrading to black gay man because laughing in peoples faces when we are all different yes, you don’t have to like a person but what you do have to do is respect them and another thing is the questions that were being asked, weren’t real question for dating.
@@dalegeorge7809did we watch the same show? Shallow HOW when I don’t even ask the questions outside of their basic info….if you paid attention, any other questions asked were between the 2 who were talking. I’m NEUTRAL because I’m the host. The “dating experience” is between them. What would the HOST gain from being “shallow?” If it’s degrading, feel free to not watch any future episodes, thanks
I loved the host, who kept it interesting, positive and respectful. Any environment that creates a safe space for us black gay men to network, inspire and guide others to become their better selves by paying it forward, I'm all for it.
My thoughts on the contestants. 1) seemed the most mature about what he was looking for. I think he would be a great bachelor for a later episode. 2) He was short and but cool. It gives me that he’s not looking for anything long term. And the fact that he brought up the position question says a lot about what he’s looking for. 3) Absolutely too cute and too old to be so immature. Like sir. Set the tone. Matter of fact don’t bring him back. 4) I feel like pink jacket was just talking to hear himself talk. Something tells me that he doesn’t have the experience to be giving the advice he was trying to give. 5) Came off so goofy and immature. 6) I thought he was the most level headed with his answers. And it would be cool if you brought him back too. Maybe as a bachelor.
This was cute. The shyness of being recorded making them giddy was part of the cuteness lol. Viewer feedback: This was a great start 💯 I really liked the effort in making the lineup and the men coming in be diverse in their professions & interests 😊. Pairing them off by roles/positions would be more satisfying for viewers & I'm sure for future contestants. Only a vers would be fine with a top, vers & bttm mixed line up. You were a very good host. I liked how there wasn't any attitude, biases, etc. from you 🥰 I def will be looking for more episodes. 💖👍🏾
Position and masc vs fem energy they gone have to clock both for this to go smoother like i wanna see folks couple up and walk away together not always a line of popped balloons
Out of the other two gay pop the balloons shows I’ve seen this was the best one. Arlette’s show works because she keeps it professional…this host was great, it felt more serious than the others, like it had depth. It actually had some real dialogue and depth to it. Even tho some of the contestants were immature. Pink jacket really was very introspective and well spoken.
😮😮 🥰😍 IIIIIKKKKKEEEE!!!!! Man i love you. And you here in your beautiful glow being all polite and respectful not entertaining the shadyness. Ima need another song for my playlist.. Anyhoo the lineup was messy. Dude in black shirt and red hat was a whole vibe
Ike we met you as Ike ain’t nobody calling you Trackz 😂😂😂 The cast was attractive however they all lacked the concept of the show. People please understand dealing with same gender relationships it’s perfectly ok to embrace both your feminine and masculine qualities. Gay men gotta learn to look beyond the physical. That is the stigma we must break to produce more relationships that can have the opportunity for longevity.

Great host but “some” bad contestants! The unnecessary attitudes, jokes, and cockiness is so annoying to see. Also this is finding love not no damn friendship! Be honest but be respectful
The bad contestants is common with most dating shows especially Queer dating shows .people just prefer to play games and waste time

Let them live. Minus the dude that said he was 37 🤦♂️ Dude giving weird pedo vibes. Why is he in that lineup??!!! 😂
Please do another episode with grown people… let’s get a 30+ episode. This line up is childish.
and the 37 year old is just as childish as the others.
This how the dating pool be though..

“At the end of the day, it is what it is” 😂😂😂
He said “google me mutha fucka “ 😂😂😂😂😂😂 got me crying
The way the host turned his head when the dude asked what is their position had me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. I was on the floor laughing.
Had me too 😂😂 Tracks silly. Luv it
I think positions should be vetted at the door.
1. This was allot of ppls first time on a open show so of course most of them were nervous.
2. It was Houston based with the locals there so of course most would know each other, its TEXAS PPL

@@odinxviixiijb1028 lol. "to" is correct.
Yesss let’s do this in Lesbian next! I loved this episode !! Seen a clip on twitter and had to watch the whole thing😭
Yes please bc all we have is ridiculously hood shows.
pink jacket wanted to be on his Dr. Phil intellectual shit so bad with the 3rd guy.... just pop the ballon and keep it moving please wtf
And then the fact that he stopped him AGAIN! It was so weird . Some type of ego thing
no pleaseeee because why is he lecturing someone else on making assumptions about people when he popped his balloon before talking to him?
And why did I just notice he got mad at red hat for making assumptions about fem vs. masc 25:52 but then did the same thing to green shirt 52:49
Out of all the gay pop the baloons this one is more organized and professional than the rest still room for improvement I would watch again
The guy in the black shirt definitely was just looking for someone to break his back and pay his phone bill. Lmao.
Lol.
Arlette is not the creator of Pop the Balloon or Find Love but she definitely set the bar high with her husband. I can tell you are a great host. Very well spoken.
Arlette is not? Who’s the OG?
She is.
i didnt think she was, it came from africa didnt it?..idk
@@ThisIsAlvoshe is not african girl named nons miraj and a few british creators started doing it. But it really was inspired by the early 20v1s
@@tumi9701 cool. Let me check. Thanks.
I’m sorry but this is hilarious. I’ve been laughing since red hat came on 😂
The poppers got me 😂 on the floor!!!
Deshawn stands out as the most physically attractive man and also the most respectful.
Trackz did an excellent job as a host for this first episode, I hope to see more follow with higher quality men.
da light skin dude in the pink jacket really THOUGHT he was eating red hat up
he was trying to gaslight him lol
He really tried it
Like he was talkin but I wasn’t hearing anything
the way 37 switched up was fucking witchcraft!!
Most of them are like that. That’s why it’s fun to just observe and wait for the real person to show up. Usually it takes a drink or two lol
Cool show … very entertaining … tan shirt DeShaun is my flava but we are both tops .
I look forward to the next episode .
Great job hosting .
The dudes are corny, why are they laughing in his face like that it’s very rude grow up.
💯💯
The 37yo goin into detail about the poppers was a mess like give it up 37yo showin up wit a grill and city trends jeans its a chop
That would be cringe at 27, only teens do that shii
No Cause Deshaun with the Red Hat do TALK WAYYY TOO MUCH🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You can tell it was drinks in the back….
Today, we have so much black queer representation. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜there wasn’t chemistry in the room 😢unfortunately
Maybe do it in a format where the positions choose one another. Like - tops are contestants and the bottoms are lined up and vice versa to not have the automatic pops based on assumptions of position.
Yes, that would really make it much better.
Put Trackz on the lineup 🤞🏾
🫦
Yes!
You did a great job as a host, probably the best host I've seen so far on queer balloon pop episodes.
Also, the poppers monologue had me on the floor lmao
All of a sudden all the tops in the building 🙄😂😂😂😂😂
TAG THE BOYS PLS 😮💨
and they all give off hey girl hey bottoms. not one top selected any of those bottoms.
TRAX DID HIS BIG ONE STEPPING OUT AND DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT! YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO SET SOME GROUND RULES FOR THE PARTICIPANTS. THE POPPERS CONVERSATION WAS "CRAZY WORK"! THE INTERNET COULD'VE DONE FINE WITHOUT IT WITHOUT A DOUBT. WE DONT NEED FOLKS THINKING HES A DEMONSTRATION OF US ALL.! DEFINITELY SUPPORTING THIS THOUGH.
TrackZ I’m proud of you and this show was great to watch can’t wait to see more
Absolutely spot on
Tracks how tf do u keep a straight faceeeeee
some of the guys laughing at literally nothing the whole episode was irritating af to watch.
tickle monster, the whole episode, had the nerve to ask ole boy what was funny… and this was after, during and before continuing to laugh at nothing 😭😭😭
Facts 💯💯that’s a turn off to me I could not take all that laughing I would need a little more structure I know it’s a dating show, but I just couldn’t take it. I will have to have a little bit more mature people one thing I cannot stand is a person laughing in a serious moment, especially if you really trying to date each other
Ain’t seen Trackz since Bobby Lytes show! 😂😂 so glad you’re still alive and doing well.
“We’ve got a few popped balloons”
EVERYONE POPPED!! 😭😭😭😭✋🏾
The gentleman who had political aspirations was slept on!
Facts!
For real!
bring contestant one back! I believe his name was Montrel he's so handsome, has a good job, a bit shy maybe but very cute! these were not the right guys for him! Love the Host as well he did really well keeping everyone on track but still allowing a bit of time for the goofiness which is what made this episode so hilarious
Bring Yum Yum in the red hat back!!! I love his personality 😭🩷
Stay tuned!🤭
You did an AMAZING job for the first episode. Your energy and personality is great and keeps the show going. Please keep the episodes coming. I really enjoyed it. I am looking forward to many more episodes.
Contestant 1 was very reserved & shy which was very attractive to him and unfortunately in this setting didn’t really work out for him after all
Contestant 2 had some word choices that were interesting to say the least but was very confident and strong about his choices and opinions at least
Contestant 3 seemed goofy from the start but rambled a lot unfortunately which kinda annoyed the lineup so sometimes short answers are best
But he brought the spice for sure regardless
Contestant 4 looks like he was ready for an interview for modeling or something idk the look was simple but effective very eloquent and articulated person with a little sass to him that give him a little edge and a drag face fan love that for him
Contestant 5 aesthetic really shifted the line up and was very distinct and it’s sad that the look is what made most people pop because the lineup kinda had similar type for the most part but happy he left with a match regardless
Side notes this was a first episode so the intention is good lineup could be bigger at least 8/10 men holding balloons and a more diverse one everyone aesthetic was kinda similar not necessarily their personality but the way and even with the bachelors coming up trying to have more versatility in the casting of both will make it way better to represent a bit more people from the community instead of just one particular style will tune it to see how the series go ✨
Agree on 8/10 more guys.
Omgggg!! The first 7 mins already major tea 😭😩☕️☕️☕️🐸🐸👀👀👀 I’m LOVING THIS PLEASE MORE OMGGG!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Red hat was funny asfffff😭😭😭
ok i love everything. more please. I literally searched this title and GOT EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. NEW SUBSCRIBERRRRRRRRR. PUUUUURRRR
And i appreciate you!! Welcome to the channel!🎈
✨Can WE PLEASE CHANGE how the show is being done. For example: 1. When someone comes out, NO ONE, should pop there ballon. 2. The Host should have the Date ask the contestants ONLY personality based questions. NON-political, religious, sexually explicit based questions. 3. Based on whatever the first question is than the contestants should be able to Pop their ballon ONLY based on that question or two so and so forth. As a community we need to STOP looking for superficial confirmation and find someone on a matching energy based level. There’s a reason why so many people are single because everyone is hella picky and go based off looks. People don’t realize how many they’ll vibe with based on energies rather then their physical appearance. If you choose to want to be in a relationship it’s based off of matching energies but if all you’re lookin at is how they “look” then You are NOT ready at all to be in a relationship. Point blank periodt.✨
Or…you can create your own show and add those elements maybe?
To long of a process you should know on sight and within a few questions if its gone work hell even this was drawn out but good questions was asked as many ballons was popped a lot of time was saved
I definitely agree he was a shallow host he didn’t even ask questions that were important they were always very basic. To be honest this show is very degrading to black gay man because laughing in peoples faces when we are all different yes, you don’t have to like a person but what you do have to do is respect them and another thing is the questions that were being asked, weren’t real question for dating.
@@dalegeorge7809did we watch the same show? Shallow HOW when I don’t even ask the questions outside of their basic info….if you paid attention, any other questions asked were between the 2 who were talking. I’m NEUTRAL because I’m the host. The “dating experience” is between them. What would the HOST gain from being “shallow?” If it’s degrading, feel free to not watch any future episodes, thanks
LLlllIIIIEEEEESSSSSS!!!! EVERYONE ON THIS LINE UP IS A BOTTOM!!!
I loved the host, who kept it interesting, positive and respectful. Any environment that creates a safe space for us black gay men to network, inspire and guide others to become their better selves by paying it forward, I'm all for it.
My thoughts on the contestants. 1) seemed the most mature about what he was looking for. I think he would be a great bachelor for a later episode.
2) He was short and but cool. It gives me that he’s not looking for anything long term. And the fact that he brought up the position question says a lot about what he’s looking for.
3) Absolutely too cute and too old to be so immature. Like sir. Set the tone. Matter of fact don’t bring him back.
4) I feel like pink jacket was just talking to hear himself talk. Something tells me that he doesn’t have the experience to be giving the advice he was trying to give.
5) Came off so goofy and immature.
6) I thought he was the most level headed with his answers. And it would be cool if you brought him back too. Maybe as a bachelor.
3 was too immature to be that old and beard with black shirt was terrible and had a hickey on his neck, which is so tacky to me
1 and 6 were my faves. 5 and 3 can go
This is the truth
This was cute. The shyness of being recorded making them giddy was part of the cuteness lol. Viewer feedback: This was a great start 💯 I really liked the effort in making the lineup and the men coming in be diverse in their professions & interests 😊. Pairing them off by roles/positions would be more satisfying for viewers & I'm sure for future contestants. Only a vers would be fine with a top, vers & bttm mixed line up. You were a very good host. I liked how there wasn't any attitude, biases, etc. from you 🥰 I def will be looking for more episodes. 💖👍🏾
The success of this show will depend solely on the producers’ ability to find tops who can be matched to bottoms. Good luck with that.
right,, but there was like tops in the line up and about for bottoms that came out
Position and masc vs fem energy they gone have to clock both for this to go smoother like i wanna see folks couple up and walk away together not always a line of popped balloons
I thought these dating shows had surveys. That's seems like the best option.
🤣🤣🤣
SUBBED! I’ve been WAITING for someone to make a gay edition! THANK YOU 🙌🏾
The immaturity runneth over.
It's many things. It's so u serious😵😵😵
The one in the gold was the finest one honestly
The “pop pop pop pop pop” just keep replaying in my head 😂
I loved all the boys in the line up they were funny some of yall need to loosen up DAMN.
🫶🏾
smdh, props to the guy who was brave enough to come out and try.
This was really good. I enjoyed and there definitely needs to be more episodes
This was an amazing first episode. Can’t wait to see more in the future!
Out of the other two gay pop the balloons shows I’ve seen this was the best one. Arlette’s show works because she keeps it professional…this host was great, it felt more serious than the others, like it had depth. It actually had some real dialogue and depth to it. Even tho some of the contestants were immature. Pink jacket really was very introspective and well spoken.
Omg!! Trackz!! It's so nice to see you here. I can't wait to see your content more. Much love from Texas
This generation of gay black queens 👑 y'all act like girls more than girls do
😮😮 🥰😍 IIIIIKKKKKEEEE!!!!! Man i love you. And you here in your beautiful glow being all polite and respectful not entertaining the shadyness. Ima need another song for my playlist..
Anyhoo the lineup was messy. Dude in black shirt and red hat was a whole vibe
Ike we met you as Ike ain’t nobody calling you Trackz 😂😂😂 The cast was attractive however they all lacked the concept of the show. People please understand dealing with same gender relationships it’s perfectly ok to embrace both your feminine and masculine qualities. Gay men gotta learn to look beyond the physical. That is the stigma we must break to produce more relationships that can have the opportunity for longevity.
so many options but not really
Trade jumped ship out of Ty , when dude bought up the poppers 😂😂😂
the 2nd guy in line deshawn is so 🔥🔥🔥
And a liar and a cheater!!
