Men Who Brunch


So I’ve posted a couple pictures of me at brunch and have discussed how much I love brunch often. If you don’t know what brunch is, grow up and educate yourself. It has to be one of the best things you can ever experience in your adult life. The weird thing is that people think that men who do brunch are gay. Are you serious? So I can’t do brunch because that would make me seem like I’m gay? Who raised you? Does it matter what someone likes? How basic can you be to assume that? 
If you’ve never experienced the joys of brunch and actually know what it is you can’t respond. You also don’t pay my bills so you can’t tell me where to go. The amount of grown and beautiful women at a good brunch event is always amazing. Drinking mimosas and screwdrivers while having breakfast food is delicious. Dancing and networking with people you’ve never met is also an enjoyable part of doing brunch. Brunch isn’t only meant for one type of people it is literally for everyone. When you are an adult you always want to try new things and not always have to go out at night. If you can do something during the day and have enough time afterwards to do adult things you will do it. Brunch is the best excuse for day drinking. If you go with a good group of people this could be the best experience. Everyone does brunch different but as long as you enjoy it, that’s all that matters.  
What makes brunch gay for men? I was told because it started in Atlanta with gay men. How ignorant do you have to be to assume this? My thinking is that weak minded people that haven’t experienced life make assumptions about things like this. Brunch is not a new concept that started this year. It has been happening since the late 1900’s, maybe even earlier from the research I’ve found. It’s just that people of color decided to take it and add a better twist to it. It’s still classy but ratchet at times, enjoyable and for those true adults that are adulting right. Brunch is not for everyone but don’t immediately judge people for the things they find enjoyable just because you don’t have an understanding for it.

#BrunchAtHome Presented By @HoSitDown


So this week I was invited to #BrunchAtHome by @HoSitDown in New York. I think if you’ve never been to a brunch before this is a way to get your foot in the door. Brunch is a way for you to meet different people outside your circle, have great food and hit a quick little 2-step. If you are a close minded person brunch isn’t for you and you should stick to your night parties. As an adult I have become more accustomed to brunches and day parties. Have a quick turn up during the day and you’re able to get back home at a reasonable time.

Brunch is described as a combination of breakfast and lunch, which occur between the hours of 11 AM – 8 PM (varies). If you live in the New York area you have at least heard of or been to Pranna’s brunch which runs from 12 – 7 PM and you normally need to book it months in advance. The #BrunchAtHome experience was definitely on the same level as a Pranna brunch just because of the food variety and the drinks that kept flowing (in my opinion). The host made sure that your cup was never empty and that food was always available. 
I feel that if you know how to host people at home then this can be very successful, as this event was. The thing is not everyone respects your home. People hear brunch and sometimes don’t know how to act. As long as you set ground rules and invite a select number of people you can definitely have a successful event. #BrunchAtHome presented by @HoSitDown, while he was in DC, I think is something everyone should experience.
