A “DL trade” is a homosexual male, that presents himself as a very masculine straight guy (trade). He’s gay, but keeps it on the down low (dl). He usually keeps his relationships with other men hidden.
— “Look at that fine ass guy! You think hes gay?”
“Ho that man is a dl trade, steer clear.”
— “My man my man my man, I wanna take him to the alter.”
“He’d have to come out first bitch!”
