I feel
sorry for any show that comes on television between 8 pm and 11 pm on
Thursday nights because Shonda Rhimes has taken that time slot hostage!
Her hit shows Scandal and Grey’s Anatomy are
in their 4th and 11th seasons, and two weeks
ago she premiered a brand new series called How to Get Away With Murder.
The new show has become my instant fave, replacing my love for Scandal; but
that might change once Scandal’s storyline picks up. Last
week’s episode of How to Get Away With Murder addressed a
topic that was so interesting that I had to call some of my girls to get their
input. In the last episode, law student Michaela Pratt found out her
fiancé slept with one of her classmates when he was in high school. You might
think, Ok that was years ago and everyone has a past BUT the tea is that her classmate is a man. That changes the
situation completely. She found out they slept together through the classmate
who joked that he could have been the fiancé. Confused by his comment, Michaela
confronted her fiancé who embarrassingly admitted that they did sleep
together but insisted that he wasn't gay and it was only a one time thing that
just happened.
Hold on… Wait… What? My
first thought is if you willingly slept
with another man, you ARE gay! You
can’t have sex with another
man and say it was no big deal or that it was just
a one time
incident. Even if it was just once, you still had sex with
another
MAN! Is it more excusable because it happened while he was in
high
school? Have times changed so much now that having casual
sex with another man
is normal to men who consider themselves
straight? Apparently for some men
that is the case; some men look
at sex as just sex even if it is with another
man. I think that makes it
even more difficult for single women dating and for
women already
in relationships. When getting to know a man now, a
woman has to
ask, “Well, have you ever had sex with another man?” WOW!!
The
struggle is real out here. Michaela decided to stay with her fiancé
after
he assured her that he wasn’t gay and that it would never
happen again.
My sister asked me if I
would have stayed with the fiancé. My first
response was, “HELL NO,” but
then I thought about it. I guess it’s
one of those issues that you don’t know
how you would handle
until you’re faced with the situation. When you get
engaged to
someone, you have probably invested a lot of time into that person
and you love the person, so can you really cut it off that easily? Do
you just
believe him when he tells you it was only a one time
incident and
that he is not gay? I would be so skeptical going into a
marriage
like that because in the back of my mind I will always
wonder if he is really
gay and if being with me is just a cover. Does
he secretly desire to be with
another man or maybe both women
and men and is just too afraid to live that
life publicly?
What would you do in
this type of situation? Add your two cents
below!
Michaela finds out about Aiden's past
That mofoer is gay if he slept with another man period. I don't care what anyone say in order to sleep with someone you have to be sexually attracted to them and if a man is sexually attracted to another man he is gay.
ReplyDeleteNot necessarily, a lot of people have sex with ppl they aren't sexually attracted to. Guys have sex with women they aren't sexually attracted to all the time and I'm sure a lot of women do too. At my last job there was a department that studied "MSMs" (men that sleep with men) and the majority of them would say they weren't gay, they just had sex with other men occasionally.
DeleteI was shocked because my first thought was you gotta be gay if you're sleeping with another man. Women out number men so there are so many more options for men if they wanted to get it in! Sooooo why a man would choose to have sex with another man when he could easily get it from another woman THROWS me off!
Homosexuality: sexual desire or behavior directed towards someone of the same sex.
ReplyDeleteObviously the guy is gay and to actually trust him after omitting that kind of information is beyond foolish. Everyone has their own perception of reality, and in this guy's reality, banging guys is considered straight.
Chile he's gay! If he had the urge to sleep with a man once who's to say he won't have that urge again? Better to get out before than the marriage than to find out after years of marriage that he's still sleeping with men. Get out...NOW!
