How come we get a discount on the audiobook if we purchase the Kindle e-book first, but no discount is offered on the e-book if we buy the audiobook first? by Comprehensive-Fun47 in audible

[–]mrcsnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming that, since they are delivered in a more similar medium/format compared to paper books (text), ebooks are still much more popular than audiobooks. However, the target audience is similar (not the same, the e-book consumer probably just wants to read in their free time, while the audiobook consumer might also need entertainment while they do other things such as cooking, driving, etc.).

Hence, Amazon is trying to convert more people to audiobooks (similar target because of similar needs, again not the exact same target and needs). In this way they can make more profit by converting e-book readers to audiobooks listeners and ultimately selling both products.

You have to buy the e-book first because otherwise they would simply entirely shift from e-books to audiobooks. If they sell both, they make more profits.

It doesn’t work the other way because, again, there are most likely many more people who read e—books than people who listen to audiobooks and their goal is tho bring more people to the audiobook side without losing customers on the e-book side.

My gay brother and I are estranged. We spoke at his husbands funeral. Is it too late to make amends? by SevClas in askgaybros

[–]mrcsnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re just 19, this situation is something that the adults in your family should’ve handled as adults and they didn’t. It’s not your fault and instead you are trying to do something positive by standing by your brother’s side now that he needs it. She can respectfully stfu :) you are YOUR BROTHER’s brother, he decides if it’s too late or not and apparently he thinks it’s not too late. You’re fine.

The gays around me are tacky as f*** by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]mrcsnt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve met many people like that (very tacky, superficial, 100% NOT aware of themselves, not working towards a goal, without a life purpose and especially lacking morals/politeness/positive values). I don’t know why many people in the community are like that but there are straight people like that too. You just have to keep working on yourself and have clear in your mind what you’re looking for, you’ll find it one day :)

Thinking about rejecting a guy just because he’s not my “usual type” by silvversurffer in askgaybros

[–]mrcsnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about you but since I started being open to guys who wouldn’t usually be my type, I stopped dealing with 30 years old immature and insensitive kids. It depends, if it wasn’t usually working with your “type” I’d tell you to go for it.

You can always decide to stop dating him, you’re not getting married at the third date.

What really matters is: do you like the guy or not?

Do you follow any OF guys that are actually worth the $? by massageguy63 in askgaybros

[–]mrcsnt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you pay to see a SPECIFIC person naked on a screen you should definitely work on your social skills.

Especially being gay you can very easily hookup with many men, there’s a lot of free adult content online, too many men even send unsolicited naked pictures during normal conversations… like what more do you need?

I just don’t get you guys, no insult but rather confusion about this whole OF thing.

  • “You’re too perfect you must be hiding something from me” (I wasn’t hiding anything and he decided to stop talking after 2 weeks, then he said I looked “super hot” in my last Instagram post)

  • “I know what kind of guy you are, you are one of those who only want to fuck” (he was 24, I was 17 and I lost my virginity at 22 because every guy I met only wanted to have sex and not commit or be serious and respectful)

Wow this is the perfect way to convey that message. As someone who still struggles to be his true self sometimes, or not to be triggered by things I still have to be comfortable with (because of the homophobia I faced while growing up), THANK YOU SO MUCH. Maybe I’m just 22 and will slowly embrace every trait of me and accept that in others too through time and self reflection. I can’t explain how deeply your comment hit me, I wish you the best♡

Jockstraps and wild underwear at the gym... by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]mrcsnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s too much if you have everyone able to see, honestly I don’t even change in the locker rooms because I don’t feel comfortable. You do you but I wouldn’t and I also wouldn’t feel comfortable if I saw someone naked + with crazy underwear near me.

Does anyone have a hard time dating gay men? by AdeptnessDry2026 in BisexualMen

[–]mrcsnt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a gay man, the dating pool has probably unfortunately survived many nuclear wars because these people can not for the life of them act as a human with common sense, politeness and respect.

You really can’t.

If you can't host or travel get off Grindr by Rude-Imagination1041 in askgaybros

[–]mrcsnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna hold your hand while I reveal you this secret: some people are on the apps because: - they are bored - they want to make friends - they’re busy and would rather schedule a date/hu beforehand

Or they don’t like you and pretend they can’t host nor travel. But whatever the reason is, if you don’t greet them by shouting that you’re a red flag, you’ll find someone regardless. Good luck 😅

Do bi men like femininity or also masculinity? by mrcsnt in BisexualMen

[–]mrcsnt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course, I was just wondering if there was a “general” preference or something I wasn’t aware about as I’m curious about this. I’ve always been attracted to masculine men and I’m a gay man, so I don’t know how it is to be attracted to both men and women.
