This week, HERside takes a seat in the barbershop—where truth is raw, laughter is loud, and wisdom is dropped without filters. Marketia, pulls up on three respected voices in Waterloo, IA: Dariel, Poppa, and Malcolm. Together, they open up about what Black men really think when it comes to love, women, and commitment.
From emotional needs to deal breakers, from the struggle of modern dating to the sacred moments of vulnerability, this episode pulls back the layers on the male perspective. HISside isn’t about stereotypes—it’s about truth, healing, and understanding.
Whether you’ve ever wondered what makes a woman “the one,” how men process heartbreak, or what they wish women truly understood—this conversation is for you. Because love doesn’t heal when only one side speaks.
