How Dating Works For African American Men Living in Uganda| EP. 192

hi

[@zranweadeyein2194]

Great discussion. I'm glad to see brothas from the US getting together and talking about their experiences abroad. At around the 39 minute mark Jason talks about switching to native language in his presence being disrespectful. I think that is common in our community, but people usually aren't talking about you. Nor are they always purposefully trying to exclude you. Probably due to our traumatic experiences in America, from outside and within, we're sometimes concerned about the "set up" "okeydoke" etc. I would suggest that if he has time, to engage a local language tutor. Adding someone who has lived abroad and has status to your expat transition team could be helpful. Learning some basic conversation: greetings, market transactions, basic action verbs, and the like could help with any insecurities. My tutor here in China was able to translate meetings at the bank and other government offices and give me cultural insights as a local intermediary. Overall, it's great to see brothas understanding that it's TEAM sport. Thanks for reading and continue the great work. Cheers

[@priscillarwandarugali3958]

We live in a communal society and unlike other countries where people are only accountable to themselves. We are accountable to eachother. Marriages are communal and most traditional marriages are conducted between families and not the individuals in love. So you don't get to pick and choose when your community will be involved.

[@switzjon8405]

America is a culture of individualism. Some have witnessed the horrors of collectivism. Outside of the West we need to understand Collective is what most of the world practice.

The Black American culture is too emotional and can't handle conflicts in a mature constructive manly way. They get extremely emotional like women I dont think thats gangster. A real g should keep emotions in check .

[@jthommy81]

Well we dont like people taking from us. Yall should try that in Africa

[@poloststyles2669]

Black American culture is revered around the world. We don't need a jealous immigrant to tell us what's a real G is. We created the term 😂😂😂😂 you immigrants are funny. Using our lingo and dressing like us but you will never be us.

[@elijahlaticbe]

Yo right about that

[@Silverbackugx]

We also have guns and don't do much talking, and that slapping BS that Africans do will get knocked TF out . lol

[@LMXSS]

If you come to Uganda don’t come with that American way of thinking Uganda is welcoming to all people from any culture. Black Americans coming to Africa is a great thing. Pay attention anytime African Americans are doing something positive it’s shadowed by bad stereotypes, mostly from what the media has exposed the world too. You can’t possibly speak on someone’s culture and don’t understand

[@hellmanksingh7967]

Facts from Oshay. If you a decent foreign dude. You gonna be temporary showered with validation and affection( not love) from the attractive Ugandan 🎉and Kenyan girls just for return of validation and monies that’s all. If foreigners start being indifferent towards them ladies, we gonna have a sub cultural shift!!!!

[@africaine4889]

They are just going to stick with their men that's all

[@Mwomwa]

We have decent women in Uganda and Kenya who actually end up dating and getting married to foreigners but sadly most foreigners start dating through the night life...most decent african women are not found in clubs. The character development there is massive.

Doesn't matter where you live. Women are the same everywhere. If you have money and resources you can get most of the women you want especially in countries where poverty and indigence is common.

[@trueserenityone]

As an African American married to a Ugandan I will say there are definitely some challenges as far as ways of resolving conflict and doing business with one another. Two completely different cultures trying to blend. My husband will be coming to the US and we will return to Uganda together. I was there for a month in Feb 2021 which I was able to observe some of the cultural differences. I have mad respect for Ugandans but i also feel they need more exposure to the world outside of Uganda in order to build a different perspective on things and to be more open minded. I was cracking up so many times listening to Oshay and Master Gabs.. 😊😂

[@imhotep1613]

This is interesting. I am an african from Congo living in north America and I would really like to see Ugandans getting themselves some exposure to the outside world as you mentioned. Now My question is : Are you including Americans ( Blacks & White) to that outside exposure as well or its just ugands ? Are Black Americans more exposed to the world compared to the rest of africans ?

[@trueserenityone]

@@imhotep1613 I can't speak for all Africans, but yes, absolutely Ugandans need more exposure. I see a lot of narrow mindedness that prevents them from seeing things in a different perspective. They hold on to how they were raised and tend to not be open to anything different which keeps them boxed in. My husband is open minded like me and that's why we can communicate so well. Neither one of us are religious tho we both were exposed to the same religions. He has moved away from those beliefs that no longer serve him and remains open. The only way we can learn to work together is to remain open minded and agree to disagree to come to a common ground.

[@imhotep1613]

@trueserenityone unfortunately you haven't answered my question . Would you mind reading my previous comment again and looking for the word " African Americans "

[@trueserenityone]

@@imhotep1613 if you’re asking for my opinion if “Black Americans “ are more exposed I would say yes to a degree because environments and culture differ greatly and the exposure to different things is limited to a large degree more so in Africa. For example, my step son is enrolled in a brand new medical billing program that has just arrived in Uganda but I completed this same type of course in the early 90s. I am constantly showing my spouse things that has never been seen in Uganda 🤷🏽‍♀️ so that’s my answer to you sir.✨ Be blessed

[@imhotep1613]

@trueserenityone I see. Honestly, I'm speechless about your claim saying that Black Americans are more exposed to the outside world than Ugandans 🤭🤭. I don't want to offend you but I think you are getting confused with interacting with people from different nationalities living in the USA as America is a multicultural country with being cultured in terms of knowing more what's going on outside of your country or your country . Are you serious? With these same black Americans asking us ( africans) if we live on trees , alongside lions, etc. These same black Americans who can't differentiate a country from a continent? These are some black Americans who can't name more than 5 countries in the world ? In which world do you live in to have the courage to compare us ( africans ) in terms of being exposed to the outside world with African Americans ? If you knew what we think about you ( AA ), you wouldn't have had the courage to write that comment . Anyway ,I'm laughing 😃

[@imhotep1613]

So, is King Obutunda still in Uganda ? It's been a long time since he last posted a video on KZbin. Big up to him

The people that you associate with as well play a big role in how things turn out. Otw, there are all types of women in Kampala. There are some of us don't ask for stuff cz we can manage on our own.

[@eyewano1088]

You got it! How one sounds, moves, dresses, their body language has nothing to do with their smartness up there...I mean in some cultures but unfortunately that's the yardstick in the west. That's how we beat them in studies. All of a sudden they look around to see who got a first class and it's this person who never said a thing in class...who seemed so confused and insecure!

Interesting show. Good to hear the perspective of American foreigners in another country. One thing that I found contradictory is the brotha from Detroit was talking about his willingness to lean Ugandan culture and language but then he seem to want to “Americanize “the women that he dates letting them know oral*** is a priority and didn’t seem willing to accept that its against their culture. To me when you absolutely want to embrace that culture, you don’t force someone to compromise to your culture. I think that it’s lowkey taking a shot at their culture when you do that. You are no better than the entitled Americans who travel abroad.

Oh yes a little idle chit chat about your man goes on in US too...however I learned w/my 1st husband what goes on good or bad between us is our own business to celebrate or resolve! Never let friends/family in on your relationship, especially single ones...if need be, seek professional counseling if only for yourself in helping you to understand/deal w/ your man!
