Down Low
An African American slang term, which refers to a subculture of men who usually identify as heterosexual, but who have sex with men, some avoid sharing this information even if they have female sexual partner(s).
This term is also used to refer to a related sexual identity.
The term originated in the African American community, and was originally used to describe " any kind of slick. secretive behavoir, including infidelity in heterosexual relationships"
"The high prevalence of HIV in the black community and the greater likelihood of bisexuality among black men place heterosexual black women at risk for HIV infection. However, the contribution of high risk heterosexual black men to the rising HIV caseload among black women has been largely ignored. Future research must evaluate the relative contributions of bisexual men and exclusively heterosexual black men to HIV cases among black women"
The term became eroticized within Black and Latino homosexual communities. Throughout the Black-Gay porn industry and internet networks, "down-low" quickly became a marketing term used to publicize pornographic movies, models, sex-clubs and social gatherings.
