A conglomerate homosexual men with diversification that's inclusive all walks of life, socioeconomics, occupations, ethnicities or races, and act as a single entity in achieving it ends. Often the members of the mafia occupy positions that beneficial to the whole or a purpose, such as gays of color distributing narcotics to communities White gays can not do so safely. The higher echelons of the Velvet Mafia are predominately if not all White gay men.
Historically, the Velvet Mafia begun alongside the Italian Mafia, which utilized the gay clubs for laundering money and funds for start ups of other more lucrative endeavors. After the near collapse of the Italian Mafia, the gay community having learned of more elusive criminal activity, infiltrated avenues of business once denied them. Disguising themselves as "heterosexual" even taking wives or arranging fake marriages to bought women or even posing as women themselves.
One of the leading industries occupied and dominated by the Velvet mafia is the Entertainment industries, with growing activity in gentrification. Criminality that fund the Velvet Mafia are drug distribution and production, and human trafficking. Other avenues in the gray would include politics, such as the Log Cabin Republicans, wealthy group of White gay men whom who were the Trump presidency's financial backing.

Get the Latinas Mafiosas mug.There is an Italian mafia agent liver here in Outer Mongolia, he wears his leather coat and keeps his automatitic weapon in his mafia style breif case, His name is hugo(a typical mafia name). He shuffles around at the dead of night and scares the living day lights out of small defenceless children. He is soon to be promoted to a Mafia God and he will rule the Outer Mongolian regions. He also drives a vauxall chavalier which is most un-mafia like. Probably to keep a low profile though. His hair is gelled in the most mafia-ish style, short and gelled back! He will never leave the proximity of his house without his leather coat and breifcase. Every thing from head to foot is mafia-ish even his leg! If anyone see's him shuffling arount outer mongolia then they should keep far away because he is convicted kitten killer. DANGER
