Why has the BLACK AMERICAN MAN taken on the sole blame for the DOWN LOW lifestyle when the same lifestyle is carried out by married white, asian, latino men AND women. But mention DL and they automati

: For anyone who may not already know, a man on the "Down Low" or "DL", is one who secretly has *** with other men while pretending he only has *** with women. Such men can be single, have long-term girlfriends, fiancées, wives and even children and they rarely form romantic relationships with the men they have *** with. This sexual behaviour can be seen all over the world of course and is not in any way unique to the US. Neither is it the sole preserve of black men or even men in general, as men AND women of all ethnicities are also known to behave in correspondingly similar ways.

For reasons I haven't been able to determine however, African American and Latino men have chosen to formalise or institutionalise this phenomenon and coined and embraced the "DL" term. J. L. King wrote a book about it and went on Oprah to tell her and her wide-eyed studio audience how it's done, (apparently from first-hand experience), and in his book Beyond the Down Low: ***, Lies, and Denial in Black America, writer, activist and broadcaster Keith Boykin put together the most adequate exploration of this complex and intriguing phenomenon I've ever come across. I've heard - I've never met one of them personally myself - that these men are quite proud to proclaim themselves as being on the DL and are reported to be a really big deal in the eyes of the men who are said to lust after them. Each to his own, I suppose.

I do find it interesting though that unlike most social developments in the US, this is one that hasn't succeeded in crossing over the Atlantic to the UK. At least not yet. The behaviour exists, obviously, but the label just hasn't found a home here - and I would know.

Figure8 You big non-english comprehending DUMMY...

If your corny mixed *** wasnt so busy trying to act blacker than black you woul'dve seen that Hamilton is actually making a true statement.

Married men of all races cheat with the same ***. Women also cheat on their husbands with other women, but somehow we've stigmatized the black man with the DL phenomenon when its in fact a aniversal issue.

Again you've showed your irrefutable desdain for engaging in intellectual discussion and a blatant affinity towards candid ghetto-isms.

Try as you may, it won't make your diluted chimp genes any blacker.


IQ69

My words must have stung you in a very sensitive place in your inferior mixed genes. It got you quite riled up.

'Again, you internet revolutionary *** are good at finding problems but are mind-*** when it comes to any kind of solution.'

I have identified YOU as the problem. The solution is to UNlighten or enDARKEN you to the TRUTHS about yourself. You have grown so fond and dear of your non negroe traits that you embelish with Aunt Jemimah and jigaboo type ASSNON sassyness to compensate.

You will always be WEAK because of your inferior genepool. Your ability to comprehend and see the obvious has been eternally disbarred. Your mental incapacity scares me. Do not reproduce.

IQ 69 Killin U girl. I feel sorry for your momma.

She need to take you back to the womb and demand a refund.

Once again your inferior mind and defective perceptive abilities are your own demise.

'I just noticed YOU are a fake Hamilton! I'm glad I scare ya funky ***! DAISY'

Where do you see DAISY and just HOW do you notice DAISY is fake Hamilton? Where are the FACTS to substantiate this victory thats originating in your sub-par flawed subconcious?

Why can't your frontal lobe work together with the rest of your cerebrum to conjur up a single thought substantiated by a concise action and tangible FACT?

The answer is your genes are defunct. You will always embelish and lie. Its in your blood and rooted in your genetic anomalies.

@ the topic. Besides cheating on their wives those white political official and law makers are the real ones on the DL like the senator who wasn't against *** marriage and got caught trying give face at the airport restroom bath room stall. Then white *** want to make it seem like blacks are *** and we are the ones stopping their *** agenda.


WabiSabi

@ topic, Black people in general seem to be the least accepting of *** people, which is why so many are DL.
