Hey guys, newbie here. I am in the middle of working on my thesis entitled Gender Communication Of Bromance. I would like to get your take on the alleged bromance between Huckleberry Finn and the runaway slave Jim. Now my study focuses on perception which means personal/historical backgrounds of the couple in question is not needed. All I want from you is your personal opinion regarding Huck Finn and Jim's relationship. I want to get your views as an observer, observing Huck Finn and Jim. I will be providing you with guide questions. There are no wrong answers, only real opinions. Your responses will be very helpful for me and my analysis. I will be quoting some of them. No need to worry much about spelling, grammar and syntax. Do you think bromance between race work? How does race influence your perceptions on male intimacy? Does race also affect your views on the levels of masculinity Huck Finn and Jim respectively display in their relationship? How common do you think is interracial bromance? Why do you think such interracial bromance work? Do you think Huck Finn and Jim are involve in bromance? If so, how do they manifest such relationship? Thanks guys and more power to all of you.

hi kris, your post looks interesting but before i give out my thoughts i would just like to ask what does BROMANCE really mean? i have an idea but im not necessarily sure if this is it.. is bromance like guy to guy romantic relationship kinda like yaoi or just guy to guy extreme friendship like beavis and butthead?
