My favorite part about this show is watching them look out for one another in the simplest of ways throughout the episodes. Thato was beating himself up about something he said and Lebo quickly grounded him with "you're human, Thato." Such moments.

I love how you guys dived into the one extreme end of men's sexuality but I feel like you could've also touched on the other end. The virgin men waiting for marriage like myself. We're always shamed for not being sexually active. Don't get me wrong I also feel sexual energy from time to time but I try by all means to deal with it( usually by going outside my res room and be in the company of people ). Some people have told me that it's pointless to wait cause my future wife probably isn't a virgin and I tend to feel out of place whenever I take women out on a date and my friends ask me if I smashed. To a certain degree my view on dating and flirting has been a bit distorted cause from what I see in society the end goal is just sex. I'm sure there are other gents like me who feel the same way.

Idk what u believe in but waiting till marriage actually deeply pleases God. It is tough don't get me wrong but if ur relationship with God is strong, that wouldn't impact u as much as it could yk,but have to keep on going and praying for a loving spouse who puts God first( atleast for me). Hope this helped❤🙇🏾

Your vulnerability and honesty is commendable. Hopefully this platform will cultivate a culture of open communication among males especially when it comes to sex and rape culture (direct and indirectly). Quite refreshing to get this perspective. Let’s love and protect males against GBV.

hey Lebo, depression is not external, its internal and the over emphasis of one's shortfalls more than they need to be. either conciously or subconciously. its basically when your brain goes into guilt overdrive and its confusing for the region of the brain that's rational and objective because there wouldnt be an apparent reason to feel that bad about yourself, this distress is what causes suicidality. id advise you maintain a support structure, sometimes affirm yourself that youre alright, youre safe, and you haven't done anything that requires that level of guilt, don't blame yourself, remember each day is a brand new day. indulge in what makes you feel better, if its kfc or ice cream go for it. get comfortable with yourself, humour is often a mask. sit with yourself in silence, think about what you want and live for you. theres only one you, and that you is important, seek to meet that you.

It's very possible to have a lot of platonic friendships with girls,i will use myself as an example 😅 it's easier for me to make female friends because I feel like they won't judge me for my high pitched voice like other men, and the funny thing is some men get threatened by me being friends with women,its crazy 😂😂😂

Thought Digest is amazing, I think they should not introduce topics as topics but rather let in flow in a conversation. You guys used to do it as well but I have seen how you no longer do it, the conversation just flows and it doesn't seem "planned" for a lack of a better word. Remember, this kind of media is not formal and viewers lean to it because of the natural flow of it. It also helps with synchronicity and helps us relate better. You guys are becoming pro's, cudo's.

Yoh this was quite the episode guys. Firstly I want to thank Thato for being brave enough to share his truth, it honestly really touched me. I’m sorry you ever had to go through any of those experiences ❤. Secondly, it really disappointed me how many people just glossed over such an important thing like s*xual assault in young men and boys in the comment section. This is a really big issue in our community. Children need to be protected by all means necessary not just the girl child but all children. In the context of teaching boys and men about consent, it shouldn’t be just in the setting of them being potential perpetrators but also in the setting of them being potential victims as well.

I understand the whole issue of men being sexualized from a young age but I also feel like when you get to a point where you look at random women at a mall and you feel like having sex with them then maybe see a therapist because I feel like that's how people become rapists. Not because they are bad people but because something happened to them at a very young age and it fested into real life crimes. Mannn, all I can do is pray for all of our sexual lives (even those waiting for marriage) because when I hear that someone is a serial rapist, I always wonder what kind of painful things have happened to them for them to be that. I even wonder what could possibly happen to me for me to be a serial rapist or murderer. If anything, people go throughhhhh soo much they don't unpack let's just be kind.

I hear you guys and i think Lebo, what you said about female friendships is not entirely true. Making friends is generally hard as young adults honestly, its not a unique experience to guys, seems like you've been around so many surface level friendships that you've generalised what you were subjected to. Funny enough though, we've always thought guys just bump fists and tomorrow they are besties...

19:40 I hear both points: I get wanting to Incorporate a new friend into an already existing friend group. Everybody understands that they are cared for equally - they all see each other in the same space after all. Let’s call it the 5-in-1 face wash. I also fully understand the concept of having friendships I don’t necessarily overlap. Some friends are better suited for some things than other friends. It doesn’t mean you care for either group less than the other because they all contribute to one goal - friendship. We’ll call this the 5-step face wash. Both experiences achieve the exact same outcome - clear skin, or in this instance, healthy friendships.

I personally think the idea friendships are subjective depending on the world we are each aware of. Men can also have surface level friendships where we can talk about sports only or watches or Cars. I cannot speak for women because i am not a women so i wouldnt realy fully understand their experience on friendships. But I believe that friendships being whether surface level or deep are just a human thing and not a gender thing.
