Have you ever heard of the DL, or Downlow. Homosexual blacks keep their orientation hidden because it isn't as accepted in our community. It's seen as shameful by the communtiy, as a sign of weakness and a "white man's sickness". The same thing with many other minorities, it's not accepted in their cultures. As for jail, homosexuality is what a man will resort to when there are no available women, it's not natural homosexuality, it's more like a survival technique.

According to a friend of mine who is black and gay, he once told me that being gay in the black community is pretty difficult because it's not as easily accepted as it may be in other communities. He didn't really elaborate all that much but he said it's more taboo. Black people may be less apt to 'come out' if that's the case.

black dudes love pu$$y!
i don't know what to say besides that!
Their are some gay dudes who are black but it is rare! its hard to find another gay black dude to be with! so usually they hook up with biracial gay dudes!
well; me being a bi female (and black), i could never give up a man! I love penis just as much as black men love pu$$y! but i like to do things with females, but it isn't a habit. (where i just got to have it)
black people experiment just as much as any other race, were just not into that bondage sh*t. (the whole slavery whips and chains, fu*ked all that up)plus police (i hate handcuffs).
any way! well; i don't know any black dudes that like object near their booty!

You need to come to my neighborhood. Some just hide their sexuality better because its taboo in the culture to be gay and they will get treated differently from family and friends much worst.

I would think it would depend on where you hang out.
