    This is a universal issue. Hetero/Homosexual relationships alike. And the cellphones have taken the pleasure out of conversation and meeting new people. I love your topics. :)

    Honey, chivalry is dead period this day an age. Straight, gay or whatever orientation people are. I was just preaching to a girlfriend of mine about this. I specifically told her "If a guy ask you to 'HANG OUT' on the first date; he isn't worth your time." When someone is interested in you, they should be going over and beyond to try and impress you. That means they should be taking you OUT, showing you that they maybe share your interest, showing something different. Hanging out is for later :/

    Shoot, do Black men go on dates anymore?! I'm cute but this whole I JUST MET YOU BUT I WANT TO TALK TO YOU AND ACT LIKE WE'VE BEEN DATING FOR 6 MONTHS type isht has to stop! A younger woman might be flattered, but darn it, I'm not in my 20s anymore! 3 phone calls + 5 texts does not equal 2 dates!

    If you only would realize how many negative comments I have to deal with a day I didn't not see your other comments until now. I appreciate the advice and no I'm not bitter. To be honest I'm not even trying to date I'm focused on myself right now. I hear from friends all the time who experience these situations. Before my last relationship I found it hard to find a decent guy. They're not many men who want something serious.

He was not going to run up my household bills "kikn it" but I have found a real gentleman need no coaching on chilvary and alot comes w maturity.

    They only gay men I know who date are the ones who are already in a relationship. Single gay men mainly hook up and don't date. Its kinda sad actually but oh well.

    I could totally see Justin as the whimsical husband of a very serious 30-something quietly out, shy lawyer. I imagine that he looks like Clark Kent, with the glasses and the suit.
    Let me set the scene: Justin and Clark Kent are in the checkout line in a grocery store. A lady ahead of them is acting a fool and Justin says something smart to her. Everyone else in line claps in agreement. CK gives Justin a once over...slowly then asks Justin out on a date when they get out to the parking lot.

    Well Justin its not just in the black gay community its the entire black community as a whole. As it always is.... People talking bout they're not a movie person is basically them saying im not looking to spending all that time with you i just wanna fuck... Its not really about the movie its about getting to spend time and of your really feeling that person you wont care what it is as long as you get to spend time. Everybody is looking for a cop out to not spend money and get some...

    You know what you're talking about before you tell me what I'm doing. One I haven't been to the club since 2010 and I don't hookup sites point blank period. Do not tell me about men and you don't live in my city. I am not the only one who feels this way.

  • @AYellowSun
    @AYellowSun 11 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    This may be stereotypical, but I have to ask this as a heterosexual woman listening to you on this issue. Is maybe a component of this that homosexual men aren't comfortable openly dating another man in public? I mean, I don't think I've ever seen a man hold another man's hand in public. I've seen men at the movies and out to dinner, but do you think that the men you'd date are comfortable following a traditional dating template?

    Dude, I love you and feel for you so much because at 2:30 I could FEEL your incredulity coming off the screen! "How can you NOT be into movies?!"
    I have met men who are intelligent but not interesting. They don't read, they don't write, they have no hardcore interests beyond watching sports and fncking. And after running into a couple of them I just decided to give myself a break because it wad disheartening. I enjoy a lot of different things, but I don't feel like dragging someone along.

  • @five71203
    @five71203 11 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Well I think it's the same with straight men also! When I did date, I'm married now, I never did like to go to the movies because I always wanted to go somewhere to talk and get to know that person more. My husband and I 1st date was at books a million!and the park. I would never let a man come to my house to "chill" because I started to see that with this generation chill is code word for sex! Like let me come over your house order a movie off Comcast burn and blast my air for free 99! No Sir!

  • @melvonjohnson5711
    @melvonjohnson5711 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What I've notice about black gay men, it's that they will only approach a guy if they find him to be extremely attractive, regardless of if the man is straight or gay- gay men are not friendly unless they think another man is attractive- I have no problem interacting with straight men or even lesbians because i know they're not talking to me based on how I look-it's just straight friendship...gay men only befriend guys solely base on how they look.

    We also need better role models to bring out better behavior. It's like when "Noah's Arc" came out, I swear everyone I knew was watching it glued to the screen. We all dreamed of that. There is no reason we all can't have that instead of the Thurs-Sun sex/drama machine we recycle every week.

  • @HnHBlkM
    @HnHBlkM 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think a couple of other factors to consider when it comes to seeing/approaching someone out in public as oppose to online is that:1. gay men, particularly black gay men, are so about no one knowing "they get down", that if you approach them in a setting outside of the chatroom, they are liable to cause a scene. Mind you, not all but a small percentage. Also, it's a shyness thing. I'm shy in person but not so much online (where I generally do look for other guys to chat with and connect).

    So this video has to be old and I am just getting caught up with you. Dating is a formality, design to keep sex at bay. People think they are getting to know each other on dates, but you are engaging in activity and thrones of a person, you not getting to know them. I don't date at the movies. That 2 hours of non communication, can't be getting to know anyone and you both are paying attention to a movie screen. A conversation about what moviesbornother sources of entertain is how you get to know someone. I have a social work life. I am always out in the streets at events and dinners, etc. I really appreciate a home cooker meal and the intimacy and privacy off a home. At a decent hour. I am not . Coming to anyone's house to get to know anyone at 11pm. That's let fuck hour. What I will do is suggest breakfast or coffee at a Coffee house or meet and greet a a library. Real odd and nerdy. But these are low key places that a conversation can happen at least. Chivalry is not dead. It just has on different clothes.

    OF course. GRINDR is a global thing. LOL! Here in Manchester the demographic is White then Asian [what US peeps call Indian/Pakistani] but it's overwhelmingly Caucasian. Drinking and being social at pubs is a big thing here, but going on dates as in an old-fashioned dating is not really it's about. You meet someone and it's about the sex then you move on to the next person. TBH, it's more of a gay men's thing than it's a Black/White thing or a US/UK thing.
