Both ways??

Okay so this entry will be a little different. When I first moved to Atlanta I met a great group of people who invited my friend and I out with them for Sunday Brunch. Now we initially met a couple at Jr crickets. I asked the guy how his wings were and he proceeded to make sure we were registered to vote. I assumed the guy with him was his boo, which was later confirmed. We told him that we were new to the city which is when the brunch ministry invitation was extended. Now we didn't actually make it to brunch until the first of the year. When we went we had a Great time! Now I absolutely love gay men. Most are hilarious and fashion savvy. And they really are just fabulous we went to Southern Art and Bar, by Lenox mall. And as I would learn later, all of our brunches would be in boogie places. So we get to the place....looking around and come to the conclusion that we were the only straight ppl at the table. There was a lesbian couple...and the rest men. And they were fine men at that. With the exception of the white guy. He was just weird. They were dressed impeccably, smelled good, were in shape, and successful. I immediately got depressed. Lol not one of these sexy attractive men wanted anything I had to offer outside of friendship and beauty tips. 

As me and my friend girl were sitting there we begin to question why we were invited...could they possibly think that we were lesbians and that's why we were invited? No way!!! 

I say all of that to say we developed true friendships with these men, they became more like family away from home. Well at least most of them. After a while of hanging out, someone's birthday came up. And the game plan was to take him to Swinging Richards. Now in my opinion this is a gay male strip club...however there were a lot of women there...by themselves so I guess they missed the memo or felt as though any man would do. So I had on some basic leggings and a top. Nothing special because I knew that I wasn't about to attract not a bit of attention in this place. How wrong was I? Extremely. Now one of the brunch crew is my buddy...he is hilarious and I enjoy talking to him. He was married before but decided that he really liked men. But he's a feminine dude. Like you can look at him and conclude that he is batting for the other team. Like without any hesitation. Well, I'm accustomed to getting compliments from the "girls" so I didn't pay much attention to his compliment "well damn girl, you look good!" other than to say thanks.  

We did our usual, sit down and start talking about the foolery around us. So of course in typical strip club fashion a dancer comes over to ask us if we'd like a dance. My buddy tells him nah...and states that I'm his girl.  The dancer takes one look at him...then me and says y'all lying.  He then goes on to say, let me see y'all kiss....Pause bruh....kiss??? So my friend actually leaned in as though he was going to kiss me. Now I love my boos, I really do...but what I'm not going to do is kiss you in the mouth. I just can't...and won't. So I had to turn my head, ever so quickly so he could catch my cheek. Dude was not convinced needless to say. 

Now...y'all they were playing gay male porn in here which was a bit disturbing. Kind of like a train wreck...you want to look away but you can't. I will say that I think I picked up some new techniques if I ever find some to say yes to. For the life of me I couldn't understand why a group of women would come to a male strip club...that was clearly for gay men. I was truly disturbed to see the women there. I mean my excuse was...I was with gay men..duh. But these women were giving away a whole lot of moolah to men who weren't thinking about them....nah sis. I work wayyyyyyy to hard for my money to just give it away. Now this goes for male and female strippers. Gay or straight...but ummm these men don't want you boo! Anywho...back to my story...

So we are chilling...watching the ratchetness going on around us....trying to find the perfect dancer for the birthday boy and my homie says to my friend girl...I really like your friend. So of course I'm hear hustling...cause I wanna know which one of the boys he's crushing on... My boo says...Shay. Now my face frowned up...cause I'm the only Shay I know here...so umm...huh? My homegirls was just as confused because she was like who? He confirmed that he was indeed talking about ya girl. Awkward moment...very awkward moment. So I of course pretended as though I didn't hear what was just said and went to purchase a beverage. So as I'm waiting to get served...I'm trying to decide if I'm going to act differently or still act as though this is my boo. I mean....he had to be drunk right. I decide to purge my mind of the convo and head back over. Of course my home girl didn't know that I was ear hustling...so she had to tell me about the conversation. My response...he was just playing girl. She gave me the "girl bye" look but left it alone. 

Somehow we got on the conversation of the sexual orientation of the dancers...and how some men can truly like both equally. Of course this comment was from my "boo". I mean I know that being bisexual is definitely real...and lots of folks choose to partake in both. As the night progresses...he got a little more vocal about his attraction...now I could either be flattered that even a gay man was attracted to me or uncomfortable because it was a awkward. I chose to be flattered. At the end of the night he asked me could he come home with me....nah bruh I'm good on that. I know for a FACT where you insert that...so I'll pass. Flattered but not crazy or remotely interested. Needless to say.... NoPunanie4U.
