African Americans only make up 12% of the population, but almost half of the new HIV cases are African American. These numbers are very disproportionate and because HIV is such a taboo subject in the African American community many people are not getting the message. This astonishing fact is the reason why Dangerous Lee wrote Keep Your Panties Up and Your Skirt Down: Six Erotic Tales of Safe Sex.

International AIDS Activist, Hydeia Broadbent, shared her thoughts after reading The Safe Sex Kit from Keep Your Panties Up and Your Skirt Down: "I think it will help more people think about HIV/AIDS and STDs in their sexual relationships and also think about practicing safer sexual activities."

Dangerous Lee is a certified HIV Prevention Specialist and HIV Testing Counselor with Wellness AIDS Services, Inc. of Flint, Michigan. Dangerous Lee is currently studying Psychology at Baker College Online and also has an interest in working with at risk youth. She lives in Burton, Michigan with her daughter.

In 2008, her short erotic story, Til Death Do Us Part, was featured in the New York Times Best Selling anthology, Succulent: Chocolate Flava 2, edited by Zane. In March of 2010, Dangerous Lee self-published her first book titled, Keep Your Panties Up and Your Skirt Down, a book of six erotic stories with an emphasis on HIV education.

Dangerous Lee's claim to fame is the humor advice column, Ask Dangerous Lee, where she dished out advice and opinions on love, relationships, pop culture, and celebrities. Ask Dangerous Lee was published monthly in the now defunct Uncommon Sense newspaper and syndicated in various independent magazines and websites nationwide.

Keep Your Panties Up and Your Skirt Down, the book, and Ask Dangerous Lee, the column, lead to the Ask Dangerous Lee Live radio show on the Blog Talk Radio online network. For more than two years Dangerous Lee, along with her co-host hip hop artist Hassahn Phenomenon, featured celebrities on all sides of the entertainment and media spectrum.

Working as her own marketing team, Dangerous has secured close to 50 media features over the course of a year. Dangerous is also a contributing writer for actress Monique Coleman's official website, GimmeMo.com and is the co-founder of Book Bizarre, an annual event that highlights self-published authors in Flint, Michigan.
