"After writing two books on the subject, King has written a new novel called “Love on a Two Way Street,” due out tomorrow, that expects to be just as intriguing. "

Just another publicity stunt... Next!

Man, this dude needs to go sit down someplace. He is about to drop another book and he comes out talking about he is an outcast in the Black community. NO SHIT. He knows we don't play that shit in Black community. He should have kept his buried deep in the closet.

Besides, how is someone being DL attributed to Black Men? Married Men of all races have been doing that shit for years and now the media and even stupid ass Blacks are going to put a label on themselves and as usual it is something negative.

This dude is not trying to save lives, he is trying to line his pockets and exploit the fact that he is gay.

Yes indeed, he should be a shame of himself to be crying like some baby after what he done...

I agree. It is funny how some people make statements they think are 'cute', at the time, only to change their positions when it bites them.

He's still too risky for anyone to date, let alone, marry.

I'll bet you're racist that reads on a seventh grade level. I can tell by what you've typed.
