Me too. What gets me more is the fact the DPU feels that everyone is so open here as opposed to the caribbean. I am sure it's worse, but this country is far from being a [Black] man's gay haven where they can be out and not stigmatized and ostracized, etc. But then again, I'm just a Soror of DST, so I guess I'd betta keep my mouth shut and opinions to myself.

Oh, BTW, KT Nupe, your sentiments are exactly what a lot of women said but not quite as clearly. Ain't no way a str8 brothah is going to hang hella tough with a gay man to the point of questioning. Heck, many not at all. I don't think, however, this is indicative of the DL phenomenon. Especially since this man is in another country and therefore, up against a whole other cultural norm. Not that it wouldn't "fit" that description but the last thing I thought was "he's on the DL." I guess part of the reason was that it took me a while to realize DPU was a man. Then when I realized it, I wanted to hit on the risk factor for the woman (she is at risk, like it or not) but not to harp on the DL thing. Matter of fact, I don't recall anyone going into DL zone. I may be wrong, though.
