Girlfriends Season 3 Disc 4 Esp 1 HIV Positive

[@pakiraju786]

Now that I’m grown, I’ve realized how important this episode was for kids to watch too. It was my first introduction for AIDS, as a kid that knife scene really struck me.

[@extremeking425]

You now realize how important it was? SMH

[@antoniobrooks474]

This episode should've won them all types of awards because it was so informative, well written and well acted

[@extremeking425]

No it shouldn't have almost all shows from the late 90s and early 2000s had at least one HIV/Aids episode

[@notthefather3919]

This was the best black show of the 2000s

[@laurasaw6933]

Wrong

[@KING62915]

4:45 Only Toni “Girl did I tell you I was marrying a doctor” 😂😂😂

[@rder3855]

Maya urked me this whole episode she wasn’t even trying to walk up on her that shows the uneducated I am proud of Lynn though she made her feel comfortable

[@extremeking425]

its a scripted show you fucking bozo...

[@LaShea69]

My only beef about Joan with the knife, is that she didn't use any hot water, soap, or bleach to clean it. HIV or not, blood or not, that's not how you clean dishes properly.

[@karisworldgaming4832]

She put it in the dishwasher, which user both soap and boiling hot water.

[@Angelisa-hi3fv]

Thank god they had stats on screen.

[@AngelRuso-m4h]

I remember watching this in my college years 1996-98... I'm so happy to find this channel. Never saw this episode. Reminds me of the TLC song Waterfalls. Notice how naturally beautiful these girls were. Still many beautiful girls out here now, but something about this not overdone 90's vibe. As a make up artist, I love it!!!

powerful episode

[@HEALINGwHOPE]

#Girlfriends Season 3 Disc 4 Esp 1 #HIV Positive HEALINGw HOPE #AIDS Reesie reveals that she has contracted AIDS from Brian. He had unprotected sex with men, refusing to take along condoms because he was in denial about the fact that he is gay. The girls try too hard to comfort Reesie, and freak out a little when she cuts herself while chopping vegetables. She assures them that they cannot contract HIV this way, but Joan initially remains a little skeptical. Toni picks out her dress, and the girls try to assure Reesie that she will be around long enough to see her daughter tie the knot.

[@notthefather3919]

HEALINGw HOPE I know it's just semantics, but no one contracts AIDS, HIV is transmitted, AIDS develops from the virus destroying the immune system.

[@aliciawilliams6644]

Always loved that ending

[@janisejones6426]

Me too!

[@stepcollazo8134]

When I was like 9 years old I didn't know anything about AIDS..my dad had his friend over and I drank from his cup .so my dad tells my mom that his friend didn't have that long because he had AIDS.so I immediately freaked out for a week thinking I was going to catch AIDS from drinking from his cup long story I was just not educated on that topic no1 talked about that in the early 90s to kids.it was very taboo.

[@kaenakarnage]

That's those Down Low dudes

[@extremeking425]

blame men for everything...

[@jama3997]

You do know it’s caused by all types of sex, right?

[@kaenakarnage]

@@jama3997 yes I'm aware

[@livinglifetthefullest7722]

@@jama3997lesbians not passing aids to each other and “heterosexual “ partners getting it by somehow and it’s usually the man being reckless with sleeping around and passing it to his partner and a woman can pass it of course but that’s because she’s sleeping around with many men who prob bisexual or on the dl like OP explained .

[@seancollins8512]

Here husband was sleeping with another man too in the episode

[@stepcollazo8134]

I don’t like the way they made her feel when she said torch the knife…the blood dies .

[@extremeking425]

Bozo this was the 2000s, times were different now stfu

[@kimbuntyn4465]

I love traccie elisse Ross and Diana Ross

[@michaelayoade1050]

All I ever wanted is to be free just like everyone else to be free from mental health psychological incarceration and imprisonment free from religious brainwashing politics and oppressive manipulative medical hypocrisies which is my son's hiv covered and that has kept me in the dark for too long, free from unjust confusion, unjust monitoring isolated existence, unkind humanity-acts, acts of lives and let's deceitively deceived others to death and pretend all is well thanks

[@Capcoor]

2:51 What the HELL kind of logic is THAT?

[@mutheukaylee]

Is ressie Jackson truly dead?

[@dannysands9341]

No

[@erinjohnson4273]

The character died, but not in real life

[@livinglifetthefullest7722]

Lol that’s Kimberly Elise unless you think her character is based on a actual person .

[@youknowwhatflav9916]

It's sad I would throw that knife out idc

[@vt-yp7yq]

youknowwhatflav + Typical ignorance.

[@helloebonykitty4762]

I hope that means that you also would not have unprotected sex with someone without going with them to get tested.

[@AnastasiaBeaverhousn]

Hello Ebony Kitty that's not the same and you know it. They KNOW Ressie has HIv there's a major difference stop reaching.. more importantly if that's how she feels she's allowed to feel that way

[@AnastasiaBeaverhousn]

v t it's not ignorance but you are. Stop telling people what THEY must accept. I'm not putting my life on the line so someone with HIV can feel good FOH and fuck YOU for being selfish as fuck thinking people should!!!

[@AnastasiaBeaverhousn]

youknowwhatflav it's not sad no one should guilty you into wanting to be safe. It's okay for you to ask someone to wear a condom but not throw out a knife man please I'd throw that shit out in her face!!!
