Ihuoma85:

So the bottom line is that bromance is the same as male bestfriends?

Yep! Bromance is the celebration of the little known fact that two heterosexual men, who are the bestest of best buds, can in fact experience 'Guy Love.'

tpia:

You're coming across as being very sensitive on behalf of the gay cause. I don't know if its intentional or not.

ok, now just like it would not be considered abnormal in the west for a parent to warn their kids about talking to strangers, or avoiding unknown characters just to be on the safe side, why are people being attacked for showing caution regarding gay mannerisms? Two kids falling on top of each other, is no reason to panic, agreed (maybe). But there's no reason to criticize parents who are concerned about their children's exposure. You don't know what they've seen or heard.


The fact that handholding and the like, used to have no gay connotation, doesnt mean men have to jump up and start holding hands singing kumbaya or the YMCA song just to prove they're cool with it. If it didnt have a gay meaning back then, or in Nigeria, doesnt mean it can't have one today, or in the west.

Not every man feels the need to hold hands with other men.

Let me put it this way: more often than not in the west, its the openly gay people you see holding hands everywhere. This holding of hands is often accompanied by other gay stuff. How's that for imprint.

So if people see this, then why blame them for associating it with the gay lifestyle- its what the gays themselves use to express their affection for each other.

So I understand this right, you are calling for a Hetro ban on everything that might be associated with gay lifestyle. Hmmm, yeah okay. . . good luck with that.

Again with this hand holding turning someone gay? Are you joking with this? Jeebus!!!

olrotimi:

shit!

Sisiki, ewo tun ni bromance?

KarmaMod:

I know!!! They are the best and finding out there were best friend in real life just makes it cuter. I think it's because of their real life friendship, they are able to play their guy love very well. Did you see the Punk"d Episode? Oh my God! I almost died laughing!!    

Ruby_Pearl:

Lmao! Very possible, kwa!

Rotflmao! I have been waiting for you all day. I know if there's one person who will be receptive to this, it's you. You know why? I'll tell you. . . because you are very very secure in you manhood and I am not joking.

Seriously, in this new world of ours, it's highly impossible.
Gosh. . . . .there are more than a billion chics waiting in line for a date and all one can think of is this bromance schitzo.
Are u aware 2 men walking together too close are presumed to be GAY??
Blimey, i wouldn't want some aggressive zealots shank me on the streets of London with the assumption i am a gay!!!!

You're actually making a mountain out of a molehill by getting people uneccessarily sensitized to all this stuff.

Not to mention, no, you don't understand this right.

I'm assuming the thread is tongue in cheek.

Sisikill, bawo lo se possible?

which Punk'd episode?

Sisikill should be taken to the market square, tied to a post and flogged mercilessly for this BROMANCE kizzack!!
Bromance is a great word though but the concept behind it is FUBAR.
Who would i rather choose?? A date with a curvy Naija babe or a geezer with freckled nose, acne and unshaved??
I'd choose the babe 365 days of the year.

Now that is the saddest thing! 

Aren't you guys tired of walking on eggshells?

Actually this is one of the very few times I mean everything I've written on Nairaland. I don't see how I'm making a moutain out of a molehill, last I checked I wasn't the one calling a ban on something as non-threatening as hand holding between guys because it might be "seen as gay"

Oh la la Spanking! Me likey me likey but that's not what we are talking about rigt now, save the S & M with me for when you are willing to embrace bromance

Dude nobody is saying you can't go out with girls, what bromamce calls for is an openess with other guys that will stop you from being jittery and near panic when you find yourself alone with members of your own sex without the buffer of sports or whatever else y'all use to prove you are macho men.

KarmaMod:

Are you serious, you didn't see it. . . the one where Donald set Zach up to be punked? Ohhh, let me see if I can find it on youtube.

The world is screwed up right now for peops to see this as HARMLESS.

Of course, i hang out with ma geezers to play video games, meet up in bars/pubs and wherever things can be cracked.
This is way different from 2 guys going to a restaurant, light up a candle, exchange cards and feed each other.
Sis, that is drifting towards the neighbourhood of HETEROPHOBIA.

@ topic

This is weird. Also, the insinuation that girls do all these mushy stuff is weird too.

Weird??
It seems we are back to the days of Sodom n Gomorrah.

Naa we are very much in the 21st century. The word Bromance is annoying

Yeah im still trying to understand when did we females start handling each other, cry when we see our friends crying, sit on each other's laps, etc. I don't know when and where this stereotype started.

Bromance as a word is great. . . . . .Brother romance.
In the 60s, it would wash but in these days of HOMO IN UR FACE?? No way!!!
Let ma buddy dine alone. . . . . .I'd rather dine with a dog than a dude.

"Brother romance" makes it more annoying. What's that? I don't see anything bad in guys being bffs but to the extremes of dating and reciting endless I love yous, naaaa

I won't let this matter rest until u lock Sisikill up.

You can't say I love you to your sisters?
And when did I become a warder?

Nah. . . . .I don't say such to ma siblings.

A warder?? Negative!!!!

Because you govern prisons, you think I'm like you?
