Exclusive Interview: Tank Talks Sex, Love and Dating Fans

This album is very reflective about the realistic little bits of being in a relationship. Some guys say that monogamy is not natural, especially for men. What do you think about that? Do you think it’s possible to spend a happily ever after with one person?

Anything is possible, but what is natural is what is. What you desire as a young boy to an old man never changes. Everybody else tries to ignore it or put their little spin on it and say what men should do and how men should act, but a woman can’t necessarily say that because a woman isn’t built like us.  We’re totally opposite creatures.

So, is it possible to make it work and be happy?

I think a relationship lasting forever is more about understanding and less about cheating or lying or all the other things that can crack the integrity of a relationship. It’s about two people accepting each other. When you have kids, you don’t break up with the kids as soon as they do something wrong.  That’s a life long commitment.  There are consequences involved, but there’s no dis-ownership.  What we lack now is a forgiving spirit. Everything is about our own individual happiness these days. At any point in time if you let us down then that’s just not good enough and it’s over. But we make mistakes. That’s part of being in the human race.  That was a long answer, huh?

Yes, that was a lot, but that was a very thorough, nuanced response.

Thank you. I pride myself in such things.
