A Downes
A DownE is a Filipino or Asian person who’s secretly gay or bi but keeps it a secret because they’re scared of their mom, their religion, or getting a bad grade in math.
My cousin is a DownE and hides his love for his barista from his mom.
My friend’s a DownE and only texts his crush when no one is watching.
My neighbor is a DownE and only comes out at night, when the moon is full and the neighbors are asleep.
