ABOUT THIS EPISODE
From first dates to long-term love, dating as a Black man comes with its own stages, rules, and battles. We dig into how other races approach dating, the double standards in desirability, and the stereotypes that shape how we’re seen. Beyond the surface, we get real about the politics of who gets chosen, who gets fetishised, and how Black men navigate connection in a world that keeps trying to box us in.
