In the movie Bruno, the character of Bruno goes onto the Richard Bey show in Dallas. The audience is comprised mostly of Black Americans.

The subject is single parenthood.

Everything is great until Bruno mentions finding "Mr. Right."

Then the mostly Black audience turns on him. A black lady stands up and says: You're rising a child and trying to find a brother on the 'downlow'.

See, in the Black community, black men can't be gay - because culturally it's not acceptable - but black men can be on the 'downlow' with is acceptable.

S-l-o-w-l-y we gays are starting to find out the root causes of the win of Prop 8.
