> [@Stink Fish Pot](#): > > I know i am going to be sorry for asking this, but > > Are you serious? What do you consider to be a very real problem? > > What is the percentage of black men who engage in homosexual activity as compared to the rest of the population as a whole? > > Seriously, I’ve heard the phrase “down low”, but never heard that this was an actual problem in the black community. I am not **nearwildheaven** and cannot speak for him/her, but I took his/her remarks to mean that the “very real problem” is high levels of homophobia and consequent deep-closeting (“on the down low”) in the black community. This sort of thing is a problem because, as **Antinor01** pointed out, gay men who stay closeted out of fear are more likely to have (a) high-risk sexual behavior, (b) more sexual partners, and (c) female spouses/partners who don’t know about the male partners and thus don’t realize the hazards they’re being exposed to through the “down low” activity. I agree, though, that this has nothing to do with any perceived shortage of single black men who are genuinely heterosexual, and I’m mystified why it’s claimed that such a shortage exists. > [@wolfpup](#): > > I didn’t realize that there was a noble tradition here of new arrivals providing fresh new insights on contemporary issues, but I’m on it now. I’m preparing a historical treatise on the subject of “Gay Black Muslims Who Have Become President of the US”. I haven’t decided whether it should be in ALL CAPS or the more formal presentation with no caps at all except for Important Words, but it will have the requisite plethora of exclamation marks and full citations from “Infowars”. Coming soon. You’re welcome. 🙂 Hello **wolfpup** , and welcome to the Straight Dope. I think you’re going to like it here. ---

**MrsLegit816** , I doubt you’ll be back to respond, but your rant has to be in the top 10 percent of ignorance-laden posts that I’ve read since becoming a member here. You have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about but that’s okay; I am confident that you take pride in spewing imbecilic nonsense to anyone who will listen, which is why it is almost impossible to take you seriously. You probably believe that your being black excuses your disgusting homophobia, but it doesn’t in my book, dearie. Couching your mania in a purported concern for the black family also doesn’t fool anyone, but I am sure that knowledge won’t stop you as I believe your mind is closed to any facts you have chosen not to believe, regardless of proof. You and your ilk are the problem, but you’re too wrapped in your cloak of ignorance to see it. SMDH indeed. ---

This was a young BM who was viciously killed, w/NO weapon, & NOBODY gives a fuck Yeah, the black gay police really dropped the ball on that one. ---

No, what **MrsLegit816** is probably really upset about is that no man will put up with her stinky-assed attitude for very long and she needs a scapegoat so she doesn’t have to waste a second on self-evaluation. **MrsLegit816** is not unique in this among a particular class of black women; in fact she is, sadly, all too typical. ---
