The expression is "why buy the cow when you're getting the milk for free?" This expression was usually used in the past to discourage women from giving away their romantic or sexual favors too easily or without commitment from their partner. I recently saw an amusing expression for modern women who don't want to get married: "Why buy the entire pig just to get a little sausage?" 🤣

Waking up with you this Sunday morning in LA is the best. Thank you for this video. Having coffee and storytime with Keven.

Persevere and you will eventually find your life partner/ husband, Keven! I met my husband 6 years ago and we live in a more rural part of West Virginia. 😆

Keven, for me, respect is fundamental and non negotiable on the same level as good personal hygiene and not having bad breath. The expectation that anyone who engages needs to come correct or not all is an important boundary that shouldn’t be compromised for any reason whatsoever. Kudos and I can’t wait to see what’s next in your journey.

I lived in Kendall for 7-8 years before apps. There are things I noticed that possibly could be addressed in a follow up. I am Anglo, and the cultural divide was great between my tiny island of English language and the vast continent of Spanish language. I found that Spanish speakers preferred to go to Spanish language drag bars where I was unable to keep up or sometimes mingle. Certainly many of these men were bilingual, but I couldn’t fit in with their choice of venue. You mentioned that Miami Beach/Miami is a place of appearances. I was not at the bars that often, but I frequently saw gym rats connect (likely on a physical level alone) and less modelesque guys ignored and alone all the way home. When I lived in Portland, ME, a small city, the egality was refreshing. The Native American guy was with a twink. I kissed a Colombian guy, an Israeli guy. The bartender was chubby and owning it, etc. Substance was more weighty than appearance. Certainly the app culture found a fertile garden in Miami Beach/Miami.

Keven, I love your videos. I always find them informative, interesting and entertaining. You have an incredible look. The Turkish side of you is very appealing and attractive. I went to NYU so like you, I lived in NYC for about a decade and therefore can relate to a lot of what you say. You’re great!

I remember twist and sugars.... and in FTL I sure do miss the Copa. those were the good days back in the early -mid 90's and early 2000's..... sidenote: if I know someone is married I don't want no parts of that...I believe in karma and folks are crazy nowadays too...and other party may hurt or kill someone...that's gay or straight people.

Keven.... it seems no matter where you are gay dating is hard period. What is sad is nothing has changed over the years but the technology and the way to meet others. I personally had nothing but bad experiences when I tried in the past. All people want to do is meet someone and connect with someone. If people were honest with their intentions, things might be different. It also goes back to how people handle things. I personally do not want to come between someone or get involved in a situation. There is also the health aspect as well. It is so much. I hope you can meet someone that will suit you and fulfill you. You deserve it. Thank you for the video today. You take care Keven.

I am 67 yo,I lived in South Florida all through the 80's Then Ft. Lauderdale was the bomb. It was rocking with gay bars. Miami not so much. In the late 80's a subdued South Beach, with kind of a sleepy retirement vibe was discovered with the opening of the Warsaw Ball Room. That's when the migration to South Beach began. Ft Lauderdale in the 80's was a gay paradise. The energy was amazing.

Hi Keven very nice video and nice plants. And your cute when I seen the way you start this video 😉 💋

Hi Keven, I think the saying you were thinking of is "Why Buy the Cow when you can get the Milk for free". I saw an older video of yours made about a year ago. In it you were talking about a guy you saw while out jogging and you connected eyes with him but I never saw any video updating whether the 2 of you got to connect eventually. Did I miss it or do you have any updates?

It is a very different vibe over here on the West Coast where you have St petersburg, clearwater, Dunedin, Tampa .😊

I am gay and was in the for a surgery in University of Miami and the nurse was homophobic and whispered to the night nurse that I was “homosexual” like in the 1950’s. The night nurse told me she said this because we had talked and she was nice and I was appalled. Needless to say I followed up with the hospital and she was fired. Miami is not as progressive as people think. If it can happen to me it can happen to anyone.

I think the expression you meant was "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free." Also, you have a beautiful expressive approachable face, and I see the hair on your chest peeking out, which is intriguing, haha ❤❤❤❤❤ New Orleans :-)

Do most guys just go to twist every time or is there a lot of other venues you could go for that kind of environment in Miami?

Oh, it's definitely impossible to form a lasting relationship is areas that are mostly tourist driven.

You should try to visit Naples Flordia 3 hours from Miami Flordia

I think your machismo argument is true, lot of Latino guys are discreet. One time at this gay bar a Latino guy confidently approached me on dance floor and told me I was so cute and started dancing right next to me. When I wanted to kiss, he was like no I don’t want to, and the interaction pretty much ended there. Looking back do you think there was some machismo DL thing here or what? Still can’t figure out his mindset in that interaction

A lot of this reminds me of my time in Hollywood. I was seeing a guy who was really nice but worked a lot. Later on I figured out that he was with someone else. He replied "I have a girl but I love 🍑". SMH I was hit on by a lot of Russians and Eastern Europeans in Miami Beach. A lot of it is location dependent. I met a sweet pilot in Coral Gables but I wasn't in the relationship mindset and he deserved someone who was prepared to build a life together. I later moved to NYC when Hell's Kitchen was the spot for the F boys and hustlers over a decade ago and fell into the same habits. I decided to do the opposite of what I usually did and ended up with a guy who was living in Jersey of all places. This fall will make 8 years. There's hope for everyone if I could settle down.

When did you live in Los Angeles? Why did you pick Miami? I would think it’s humid there and subject to hurricanes. With your face you should have little difficulty getting what you want.

Is there a man to go for moonlight walks on the beach with... probably not going to happen on grindr?

Mexico City is veryyy similar.

So what happened with the dorky but in a good way guy?

🎉

How big is Miami Beach kevin

Ft. Lauderdale is MUCH BETTER AND SAFER!!!!

Miami Beach is a gay city but not the City of Miami itself. Downtown Miami, Wynwood and Brickell district in the city of Miami do have a gay population though. Miami and Miami Beach are two separate cities. Miami, Doral, Hialeah, North Miami Beach, Aventura, Miami Gardens, Coral Gables, Pinecrest, Homestead and other cities in Miami-Dade County aren't so gay friendly like Miami Beach. Most people visit Wynwood, Miami Beach and Aventura.

Sadly, the reality is that of finitude. Time spent on the body is time taken away from the mind and soul. Beauty on the outside often means a disappointing inside.

Florida is a crap hole.

You have never... I know.

I've never been to Florida but after hearing Ron desantis talk about don't say gay bill I definitely wouldn't want to live there but I have seen pics and videos of how beautiful the beaches and waters look that have changed my mind about Florida
