The Secret In The Black Community They Don't Talk About

[mudwhistle]

The black male culture in many parts of the U.S. is hypermasculine. Men would be socially ostracized or punished for being openly gay, particularly in many inner city areas. Gay black men have among the highest suicide rates in the U.S. You see the same thing in Hispanic cultures, and in any other arena where men feel the need to be excessively masculine in the front that they present to the world, or where there are negative social repercussions for being gay (like in the military, in fundamentalist Christianity or in the Mormon church). Men self-identify and report their sexuality as straight because they fear the ramifications of being openly gay.

Also, it's not being on the low down, it's called being on the down low. Damn son. This book has been out for 10 years. Time to figure out the phrase you are mangling.

Here is a more detailed article on the subject: The rise of mostly straight dudes why men s sex lives are more complicated than you think It is NSFW.

I said Down Low....

The link said low down.....
..and I don't care how long it's been out.........that's not relevant to the discussion.

Yep.

Like I told Luddy.

The different cultures put different motivations on their homosexuals and thus you see different behavior.

As a result it makes complete sense to talk about this as a "black thing".

This is a very real subculture in Muslim countries as well. Hard to get more taboo than that.

Once the Sun goes down....Allah sleeps.....and the gays come out of the woodwork.

If a guy is sexually atracted to another guy then by definition he is a homosexual.

Most are missing the point.

To quote the late Lenny Bruce, "Men are carnal by nature. Put a man on a desert island and he will schtup mud!"

Men are hormonally driven to ejaculate. It happens either through having SEX (i.e., with a WOMAN!), masturbating, or a "wet dream," but most men never get to that point.

With this drive in mind, men are always looking for creative ways to MASTURBATE. They "fuck" sheep and other domesticated animals, use liver, buy artificial vagina's at adult book stores. And when stuck with no other opportunities than other men (British navy, prison, long-term remote work assignments), they sometimes agree to engage in buggery - yet another form of MASTURBATION. This is not a form of homosexuality or latent homosexuality, but merely satisfying desperate need to ejaculate.

Notice that the OTHER typical homosexual act, fellatio, is not a part of this scenario (other than by force).

If you suck dick, you are a fag. Done, end of story.
