Anyone know anything about "DOWN LOW"? Shocking, didn't know this term existed.

Yep. Homosexuality NEVER existed before in history. And people keeping their homosexuality secret NEVER existed before in history.

In case you can't tell, I'm being sarcastic.

I have heard of the term down low for many, many years but not in this context. Disgusting. No man who has sex with another man can call himself straight. That's b.s. and a serious case of denial.

I know there's white men who lead "straight" lives on the surface, but have homosexual relationships on the side. I don't know that there's a special term for them, but it's a similar situation.

Correct - I know that (at least in some groups) it's also called down low among non-'black people'.

I'm gay... but I just find this wrong. How the hell can you lead a double life like that? Gay, straight, I don't care who you are... but be true to yourself - I think it's wrong to hide who you truly are... but I know I'm just one small opinion out of many.

crazy! I was just gonna post about this yesterday but got lazy. My gf works at the library and brought it up a while back, and then last night we saw an ad on tv for a new cd collection called "On the Down Low". We had a good laugh about it....

No I understand, But don't you agree the world is getting worse and worse?
