I guess I don't believe that folx are NEEDED at chapter meetings, unless there is a problem getting a quorum-LOL. I just think it was a crude way to say we missed you--come back.

Oh don't get me wrong -- I know the Brother said it out of love! Plus he's actually elderly, and you know how the filter dissapears after a certain age. Mine was last year, LOL jk.
And I definitely believe that someone asking you back crudely is better than no one asking you back at all.
I guess what I'd like to see is more training on how to be nice to people, lol....sounds silly, but when you're trying to run chapter programs and wonder why the same 15 out of a hundred always show up, there's got to be some systemic changes that (in my opinion) have a lot to do with how people interact with each other, and perhaps more specifically, how black men interact with each other.
