Have you ever told another men that's is not family "good night" ? Is this gay?

[b. woods]

Real harlem men don't speak to each other at all.

Don't look at each other either

Zero eye contact

Wear shades like a Boss

Good night, Beloved.

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

To men: "aiight man, we'll talk"

"Deuces"


To women: "goodnight"

Its got to be crazy to live life being insanely afraid of being perceived as gay.

I thought Jamaicans answer the phone by saying Goodnight.

​

It's a Caribbean/West Indian thing, rooted in respect.
You say "Hello" and the time of day, 'cause chances are an elder is gonna be on the other end and the whole 'formal greeting' thing was a staple of manners and culture back in the day.
Like you couldn't just call a chick's house and be like "Yo, put Keisha on the phone."
You'd be admonished and depending on how serious your folks were, probably get slapped for the shyts too, but that was back in the 90's when cellphones weren't a readily available commodity.
shyt's prolly phased out now and only us folk carrying it over into the Cellphone era of direct contact.​

It actually is. If you don't think it is, call a friend and end it with "hey, goodnight", see how it feels then. With all men, I usually end the conversation with 'alright', or 'later then,'.

Why would it be gay to tell someone good night? What is sexual about it?

So at least some of yall are saying that to men on a daily basis.

All Caribbean black folk do this.

In Belize, we great each other with good night. Must be a British thing. Damn colonizers.
