A Different World: Why Did We Want That Dewayne & Whitley Love?

from Mental Dialogue

Special guest co-host ASHLEY JOHNSON-ALFORD drops by to discuss the Love story of DEWAYNE & WHITLEY on the 80's sitcom A DIFFERENT WORLD and how we see it differently 30 years later. Did DEWAYNE truly think he was good enough for WHITELY in the beginning? Eventually, DEWAYNE rejected WHITELY after years of DATING & SEX, so why did he decide to marry her only after BYRON asked her for marriage? Did DEWAYNE, the "nice guy," win the prize when he and WHITELY finally married? Did WHITELY choose the right guy in DEWAYNE, or did we mistakenly ROMANTICIZE this TOXIC RELATIONSHIP? MENTAL DIALOGUE asking the questions America's afraid to ask. ALL I ASK IS THAT YOU THINK
