What are your thoughts of Ask a Black Guy? And should we continue to do this column next year?

Guy #1- I feel we should definitely continue the Ask A Black Guy segment next year. It allows students to express their opinions and it gives readers a different perspective.

Guy #2- Absolutely, I feel that the Ask A Black Guy segment allows students to truly and freely express their feelings and opinions on social topics. Reading questions and responses is always a good laugh.

Guy #3- I love Ask a Black Guy. It is funny and entertaining idea for a Q&A column. I’ve been reading Ask a Black Guy since it first started and have never been surprised at the responses I see every week. I think it would be a shame if the A&T Register stopped doing it because so many students have started reading the paper just because of things like that. I say keep up the good work.

When you are in a serious relationship, do you stop using protection? Why or why not?

Guy #1- Absolutely not. It is a man’s responsibility to use protection whether your in a serious relationship or not. A serious relationship does not keep you from getting diseases. A serious relationship is not marriage.

Guy #2-No, engaging in unprotected sex regularly before marriage is definitely not the route that I want to take. It only takes one time to potentially ruin the rest of your life. I take too much pride in my health to make such a unwarranted risk.

Guy #3- Although I think you should not stop using protection unless you are planning to have a baby, I can honestly say I don’t always listen to my own advice. There are times where I want to use protection, but then again I just go ahead and not do it because of my comfort level. I understand it is a bad idea and I tell myself every time that this is the last time, however I have done it.

What signs should a girl pay attention to that will let her know a guy likes her?

Guy #1-When a guy actually says hey. It’s not too subtle, but not too over the top, but enough to get your attention. He doesn’t see you at a bar with forty other people; he is trying to get to know you.

Guy #2- I feel like after exchanging contacts, if the guy actually texts you back before you text him then he probably likes you. If he texts you back only after midnight you probably shouldn’t have him in your best interest.

Guy #3- I think that is a difficult answer to give because you never really know if a man likes you, or if he’s just trying to have sex with you. I know guys send a lot of mixed messages so it’s hard to tell. I would just say don’t wait for him to give the signs. If I could give any words of advice to a female wanting to know that, I would say be willing to put yourself out there and not wait for him to make the first move. If you think he likes you, have faith he is a good guy and see where it goes. Don’t be blind to his lies, but then again don’t fight him just because you’re not sure of his motives.
