       There's one thing you've to get clear, our custom is so closed that some free life being applied in certain places may turn as a taboo, which at last cause most of the youths acting primitively when accidently mixed to other youths from western world.
    I remember back those days of secondary school we used to hold hand in hand with male friends but in western world it's only Gays do practice them.

Are the people who held hands in Nigeria gay now?

          Some maybe hidding under the pretence of being best pally, but I can see nothing wrong in being Gay except his choice is effecting my freedom which I'm yet to notice. But humanbeing are made to live their life and being real is the act of being who you're.

You see people think women's self esteem is easy to down pour on but actually it is men. That is why they do things for "Street Cred"

I have to agree with you on that
But the difference is that men tend to bounce back in nanoseconds from anything that hurt their self esteem
That's where the streetcred comes in . . . while women are busy crying after breakups, we're there thinking of the next step
We bounce back before we ourselves know our pride has been hurt, sometimes more on the offensive than expected
And is that not what mental stability is all about??

@Sisikill
I'm still asking, Jack Bauer and Tony Almeida Vs JD and Elliot
It's funny, the only place I see your 'mentally mature' man is that half-gay dude on girlfriends

Our own 'I love you' is a pat on the back and 'Dude u're the best'
What's the one of looking into each other's eyes??

20 years ago it woulda been alright, but this is the 21st century where priests are turning gay
It's no more safe jare

@lexicon
You don't get me do you??
I'm just helping a friend by telling her the truth

Bromance is about being who you are instead of conforming to what society wants.

Society says two guys can't walk together, go out to dinner together, go watch a movie together or let their guard slip because it might kinda, sorta look a little gay and what do they do? They say "Yes, society. Whatever you say Society" and then obey to the point of paranoia. . . they walk 10 feet apart, go ballistic if a guy mistakenly touches them, sit on opposite ends of the theater and bury their feelings under blocks of stupid machismo. How then do we expect them to be emotionally receptive in other areas of their lives coz I tell ya, once you shut that thing off for one thing, you shut it off for all and who suffers the brunt of it? Women!

It is WRONG I tells ya! Wrong! grin

Bounce back kini? You don't bounce back. . . you bury it and take it out on the next girl. Puh-lease don't even try to go there. I am not saying dreamily gaze into each other's eyes I swear, where do you guys get that from, I am saying don't be too paranoid about your man to man relationship.

Are you also opposed to male and female relationship abi what is JD and Elliot's own in this matter now? 


Tee hee hee, I know you mean JD and Turk but I'm not about to let that. . . freudian slip slide

Oh my God! You make me wanna cry. . . seriously, that's the exact point of this whole thing. Once men learn how to treat each other right, the rest will come easy. What do women complain most about. . .

1) Their guy not respecting them enough
2) Being inconsiderate
3) Being taken for granted.
4) Emotionally closed of partners
5) Indifference
6) Physical abuse

When a guy treats his girl in a shabby manner. . .  majority of the time consciously or unconsciously he is doing it because he does not want to be seen as a wuss or an emotional softie by others, especially his fellow guys. Remember all the times you made fun of a friend calling him whipped because he dared to show his feelings for his girl? What do you think happens? He shuts off and tries to be as unwhipped as possible.

Now if you guys learn to be emotional softies with each other, the fear of being laughed at or mocked disappears and from there on everything will be on point.

It's simple.

You make me Happy!  smiley

Let's be honest here, why do you think he was like that? Please don't say it's because we are not used to hugging in Nigeria coz I'm gonna throw the "Oh yeah, we used to hold hands in Nigeria but they learnt not to pretty quickly, so why can't they learn to hug now?" answer back at you.

My own aswer. . .  Most Nigerian guys have problems with PDA because they think it makes them less manly in the eyes of other Nigerian men.

It seems to me that you've been contracted to promote Bromance. More powder to your face.

Nigerian men will be the last on earth to embrace bromance. I hope you don't take this the wrong way (I know you're intelligent enough not to), but I suggest you spend transfer the time you spend on this thread to the Literature board. You're really good there, you know!

Even people who are man enough won't give it a try.
1. I might become gay.
2. They'll think I'm gay. Maria bi Jesu.

NIGERIAN MEN, WE'RE A LOST CAUSE.

Lexicon and Sisikill walking in a garden

Lexicon - It is a shame eldee can't express his feelings in a better way.

Sisikill - I suppose he's hesistant because he is does not want to come off as a softee in front of all the other guys.

Lexicon - Yeah, If only there was a way to correct that, make him more open and make other guys more receptive to a man's mushiness. Oh if only! if only!

Sisikill stops and grabs Lexicon by the arm

Sisikill - I know! Bromance!

Lexicon - Bromance?

Sisikill - That's right Bromance! Bromance is the first step to a new and improved man.

Lexicon - Interesting! Tell me more.

Sisikill - Bromance is the process of making guys feel comfortable enough in their skin to be open about their feelings. The first step is to be open with another guy, once that is done, the rest comes easy.

Hannibal comes into the scene, he is holding a football

Hannibal - Surely there is more to it. Some hidden fees, contract. . . kissing, candle light dinners, feeding each other and sending cards?

Sisikill - Nope, nope no hidding fees, no kissing or candle lit dinners. Just two guys being friends.

Hannibal - Wow! This is incredible!


Lexicon - Far out! I can't wait to tell all my friends about Bromance.

Sisikill - Don't forget Eldee.

Hannibal & Lexicon - Thanks Sisikill!

Sisikill - No problem guys, I'm always here to help out.

Voice over

Bromance. . . a man's path to emotional growth!


For a first step of the seven-step program, YEP! grin
