Why are there so many (black) guys, who live their sexuality on DL ? especially thugs with wife and family...?

okay i am a black gay male now my parents and family do not know i have friends coworkers and a loving boyfriend now like other people have commented being gay is not accepted in the black community and do not go with a guy who is in a heterosexual relationship its just not the best for both sides but being gay and black is really hard for men i mean i live n constant fear of being outed to the wrong family member and being disowned by them all no for women its not that hard i do not know why but its normally easy for lesbians anyway sigh avoid men like that i wish more black men would come out and we all could show the world that we are here its sad that a culture like mine would con-dim a people who are fighting for the same rights that people have died for and fraught for for a long time i hope i have helped

Homosexuality is not widely accepted in black culture, a culture which glorifies your traditional notions of masculinity and derides any hint of femininity in men. So hiding has become the norm. Another factor is an internalized homophobia. These men will most often not admit to being gay or bi, even though they have sex with men. Hiding the fact (DL) is another way to remain in denial. It's unfortunate for everyone involved.

The Black community does NOT accept homosexuality as well as other races. I really hate the whole idea of DL its hurts everyone that is involved, but I can understand why its used..just sucks.

Because they don't want to be socially ostracized from the black community, they stay in the closet.

Maybe they are bi, not gay.
