DL Style


I know this is a touchy subject, but I'm just curious.

The Down Low or DL notion has always bothered me. Ever since J.L. King blasted its existence on Oprah, it has become one of our biggest burdens to bear.

But sometimes...I feel that the 'Down Low' notion is welcomed or romanticized in our community. There are books, shows and sometimes parties encouraging the 'hotness' of DL men. I understand the allure of the issue, but I don't think we should be placing DL men as viable options for a mate.

Maybe I'm off here, but I have to ask...Do we romanticize the 'Down Low'?

I would love to hear y'all thoughts.
