“Ask a Black Man” Episode 4: The Marriage Episode [Extended Cut]

April 19th, 2012 - By jade

Here is the extended cut of the last episode of  Season 1 of Ask A Black Man! Ladies this is our season finale, so we held out for the good stuff in the end. More eye candy, more honesty–we all thought this was our favorite episode to date due to the true honesty that was provided by our panelists. We’ll warn you now: it may not be easy to digest but the extended version will help you understand their answers a little better.

In this episode, a new panel of men discuss the topic of marriage. MN commenter favorite Devale is joining us for another episode, while LA (Laurence), George Twopointoh, Zarette and Brannue Life represent for the first time on stage. Our lovely host Kela Walker holds it down for the ladies, per the usual. You don’t want to miss the full discussion!

    LOL. I don’t cook, definitely don’t clean, refuse to do laundry and could really stand to lose a lot of pounds and my husband is happily married and in love. These “men” are children. They are little boys that have watched the grown ups do it for a long time and once they grow up, they’re going to do it like this – (fill in the blanks). Bless they’re little hearts. With age comes wisdom so I think there is hope for them still. But what I will say is this – I’m not a maid and I’m not a cook, my husband can pay people for that. What I am is a wife, the lover of my husband’s soul, his foundation, his backbone, his shelter in the storm. I’m all the things money can’t buy. That’s why we’re married. I hope you meet that woman that’s all the things money can’t buy for you too.

    At the end of the day you will eventually be yourself and so will he. If you don’t like him as he is. Quit.

    Laurence looks like his mom made him do this

    These guys are focused on “looks”. You need like the comments below, get a mix of young and old guys, married guys that been married and still married. These guys are lying through their teeth and talking out both sides of their mouth.

    Where did you get these guys from? Why dont you get some older guys instead of these young guys? I think these guys are talking out both sides of their mouth. They know they want a woman who is attractive and can’t cook, conservate, just look good and spend up all their money.

    OMG! OMG!
    Devale just needs to stop! It would be interesting to know how long he has been married. Some of the stuff Devale admitted to or made a statement about is straight out of the “stone age” and I believe in old fashion values. At some point, his wife will “awaken” and he can’t push her around anymore, then what?
    Bottom line, a person doesn’t have to do anything they don’t want to do. The men on this panel who think other wise and aren’t married, probably won’t be married. The man on this panel who is married, will eventually have his “heart broken” because as you continue to remain married values changes/people change–it’s called growing up!
    Next, married folks always make the statement “I know my wife or husband!” Bottom line, people are individuals and they will do what they want — you can’t stop it because ” you think you know” them! People stay in line because they choose to hold themselves accountable not because of their partner.
    Man of the house is NOT tangible! A man of the house protects his family, provide morals for his kids, and keeps his family together.
    News Flash — Women are leading men in going to college; hence, we are probably going to make more money. So you might want to re-think that women needs to make less than I to be secure or the man of the house.
    Sex Frequency – You all are still young – Another New Flash – as men get older your package declines; hence, this is why Viagra exist. So all this BS you all are talking now in your 20′s and 30′s about women need to service you whenever — return the favor in our prime which is 40+—bam!
    Baby Making – Those on the panel that think if you marry a woman & they have to have a child because you married her or not wanting a career driven women because of possible issue with childbearing, then I tell women their condition should be —you make the man raise them from out the womb Mr. Mom.
    You all sucked!
    I agree this would have served better by having more married men then non-married or men who have never lived with a women.

    That whole Barren conversation was ignorant and ridiculous. What if the MEN were actually the reason for a couple’s infertility? Would it be ok if a woman left a man who was shooting blanks? Also, despite countless tests and medical advances having a baby is still a miracle. Some doctors find absolutely NOTHING wrong and a woman could still be unable to get pregnant. I’ve also met women who had illness that prevented pregnancy and they STILL got pregnant. There are also so many other options…to have children. SMH.

    Devale speaks like someone who hasn’t been married very long. Seriously. I don’t understand why the guy at the end (forget his name) was even on the panel because he admittedly doesn’t want to be married. I honestly see why the divorce rate is so high in this country. Most of us don’t know how to be married. We place too much emphasis on things that in the long run don’t matter. It’s all instant gratification. But marriage is supposed to be forever, til death do us part, for better or worse. I know not all men (black or not) are like this, but I have serious doubts I’ll end up with an American. I feel like we’re reading from 2 different books.

    Why do we have to pressure men. I was always told if a man wants to marry you is because he loves you. Also, why is Devale married?
