À propos de ce contenu audio

 On this episode of The Good Ole Boys Radio Show, the guys tackle the buzzword “mankeeping”—the idea that women carry the emotional, mental, and logistical load to keep men together. The crew breaks down what the article calls mankeeping versus what they call a real relationship, digging into vulnerability, pride, emotional labor, and why some men struggle to lean on their partners without dumping everything on them. They also get into how younger men are facing a friendship and loneliness crisis, often expecting their romantic partners to be their only source of connection because they lack strong male bonds.

From there, the conversation shifts to Black women’s role in the Black family, the legacy of grandmothers as matriarchs, and how culture, media, and labels like “mankeeping” miss the bigger picture of partnership and reciprocity. The fellas share personal stories about family, distance, marriage, emotional growth, and the thin line between support and control. In the end, they land on a simple truth: it’s not mankeeping—it’s called a relationship. Support each other, have your own lives, and stop expecting one person to carry your whole emotional load.
