In the days since the election, which left most of us scared and angry, a new devious trend has emerged on social media, and we’re LIVING for it!
In an act of revolution — or mustache-twirling revenge — the LGBTQ+ community is doing its part to make life as uncomfortable as possible for Donald Trump supporters by outing hypocritical men.
The trend of outing “DL trade” — or masculine closeted men who hook up with gay men on the down low — seems to have started on Election Day by Edgar Mariscal, who uses the handle La Coochie Versace on X (formerly Twitter) when he wrote, “If your DL trade is voting for Trump you have the right to out them.”
Men who are happy to go to pound town with other men but vote for a conservative politician who has vowed to make queer lives miserable are hypocrites. So while purposefully outing closet cases is controversial, we’re happy to overlook it in this case. These men don’t deserve to be in your bed or have your protection.
Donald Trump not only won the electoral college but the popular vote as well, which means that there are likely people in your life who voted against your interests, which is likely why this trend has blown up on social media.
