According to Slate, this Sunday's
According to Slate, this Sunday's NYT Magazine reports on gay black men who don't think of themselves as gay. NYT says its called "living on the Down Low". The men are "ostensibly straight to their girlfriends and colleagues, [but] these men regularly have sex with other men but don't identify as gay. Instead, they're on the DL and identify more with being black and masculine than with being attracted to men."
Interesting how it used to be funny to get Sunday's paper on Saturday -- now we can even get a review of Sunday's paper on Thursday.
Also interesting that today also brings word of the Vatican urging politicians to stop gay marriages, and Bush says, via his spokesman, that he'd like a constitutional amendment to ban them. Seems like this issue is headed towards a crisis point.
