We can not stop them from doing what they want. My friend’s nephew and he is only 6 years old told me “Si tito may booking, sinundo nga lalake kanina, hindi mo nabutan.” when I asked the little kid where my friends was.<BR/>It is not that taboo anymore as it was years back.<BR/>Oo nga maraming bakla na pumapasok sa gay channels but I also know some who are very comfortable with them selves but hate going in those kinds of scene.<BR/>It’s about how one values himself or decides what to do with his life.<BR/>I am not also saying that gays who do not enter the gay scene are technically better than those who do.<BR/>~ <BR/>Anyway, to comment on the article…<BR/>It’s good that this is true, so it makes it easy to isolate the right ones, the good ones, the ones you know you deserve.<BR/>Hanapin mo ang putting itlog sa isang basket nag pulang itlog diba madali lang?<BR/>The thing is sigurado ka bas a hinahanap mo?<BR/>Or pag nakita mo na sya alam mo nab a ang gagawin mo?<BR/>Minsan naman kasi the things we are looking for are found in wrong places. Kaya nga hinahanap natin.Dark Ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05055493897595006692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-41907695048878409942009-04-02T20:20:00.000-07:002009-04-02T20:20:00.000-07:00ouch! hahha. inspires me to come up with a lesbian...ouch! hahha. inspires me to come up with a lesbian version.<BR/><BR/>di naman sana bitter ati? ;)spammityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14029860281887435763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-29495357066495275042009-04-02T18:14:00.000-07:002009-04-02T18:14:00.000-07:00wow... so bitter and jaded... and I guess maraming...wow... so bitter and jaded... and I guess maraming nakaka-relate jan...<BR/><BR/>Masakit man tanggapin pero tama siya. But I agree with Yffar; prolly true ONLY for the hook up scene.<BR/><BR/>I guess it comes from our obsession with beauty (eg muscular bodies), and the obsession with "straight-acting" gays...<BR/><BR/>Although, as mentioned in of MGG's pocast, madalas tayo ang hmahanap ng sarili nating sakit ng ulo. Why go for the hot straight gays who obviously won't like you? <BR/><BR/>People will always have their preference and their prejudice. So why go after the people who won;t like you? It's like when you're the new guy looking for friends... why stick with people u don;t like and don;t like you, di ba? hanap ka na lang ng set of people kung saan benta ka.<BR/><BR/>We have to believe in our own beauty, find our own niche, and take comfort in the thought that there is someone out there for each of us...<BR/><BR/>(masyadong optimist ano? pero kase naniniwala akong one way of changing this is changing your outlook in life)Oliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07532771424004782755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-80704802779800551432009-04-02T08:34:00.000-07:002009-04-02T08:34:00.000-07:00that is it...you hit the proverbial nail in the he...that is it...you hit the proverbial nail in the head!!! i could not agree more...<BR/><BR/>but on the other hand, i'm not really one for the scene...and never bothered about looking. there are people who are just bound to be alone, i reckon. hahahaha!!!<BR/><BR/>superficiality is tough to call on since we are all people of certain standards in mind.the barefoot baklesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09680582064373576177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-14787346484326088572009-04-01T21:47:00.000-07:002009-04-01T21:47:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Eiji Boyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11042226740249520013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-22456989867283613512009-04-01T10:59:00.000-07:002009-04-01T10:59:00.000-07:00truevali...lalo na yung number 9.. ay day, ang sar...truevali...<BR/><BR/>lalo na yung number 9.. ay day, ang sarap sampalin...<BR/><BR/>for me, our gay scene must learn decency once again... hindi porket bakla ka, kailangan nang maging pokpok...<BR/><BR/>kaya witchelin gumetlocke ng jowa sa mga barlalou, unless elle paella ka na... find yourselves some decent guy, that you will not meet on sites that is conducive for deceit and fallacy...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-67893799969578413142009-04-01T01:07:00.000-07:002009-04-01T01:07:00.000-07:00(laughs) true! we are all total flirts!i beg to di...(laughs) true! we are all total flirts!<BR/>i beg to disagree with "chub or effem" being a curse.<BR/>well, it's not really. actually, believe it or not, i like guys who still have their baby fats as what we call them.<BR/>kasi naman po, kung sobrang firm ang katawan ng isang guy, eh ka luod tignan. grrr! makes me wanna hurl.. you know what i mean.<BR/>wala ka ng mhawak2an or mpapaglaruan nyan kung sobrang firm ang bod.<BR/>my opinion, yours?carl unohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04693094917282148318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-70362805030827981912009-03-31T23:05:00.000-07:002009-03-31T23:05:00.000-07:00In my mind, turning the human experience into a se...In my mind, turning the human experience into a series of mathematical principles that can be interchanged without looking to every experience's qualitative differences is a function of the industrial market economy upon the human experience.<BR/><BR/>I also think this very surface-objectification is a necessary consequence of having sexual autonomy (which is why the Church so opposes the gay community and the Reproductive Health bill, in the same breath!) Instead of recognizing this step in our collective psychological development, the church opposes us and the Reproductive Health bill thinking ignorance is the way of Christ!<BR/><BR/>As long as someone doesn't harm themself, this hookup part of life can be very educational and instructive. The question is how not to get stuck and be turned into stone by the engkanto of hookups, or the thought process that doesn't see humans but just two-dimensional images of how people appear to us.LoFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17790755800889443785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-16355955472532811702009-03-31T19:50:00.001-07:002009-03-31T19:50:00.001-07:00yeahwe need to change the concept of the so-called...yeah<BR/><BR/>we need to change the concept of the so-called gay scene kasi it equates to hook ups and booking.<BR/><BR/>Try entering different chatrooms or other gay sites, we will see different phrases in the profiles like:<BR/><BR/>"Discreet here, looking for same"<BR/><BR/>"No chubs, effems"<BR/><BR/>"Cute any?"<BR/>Minsan mali ang grammar pero iisa ang ibig sabihin, if you are not the one im looking for, get lost.<BR/><BR/>Very discriminating naman di ba.<BR/><BR/>This is an example of internal discrimination with in the LGBT community.<BR/><BR/>How can we change this? Mukhang mahirap, kasi most of them are looking at the superficial attributes at hindi ung tao mismo. <BR/><BR/>again, magkaiba ang hook up sa salitang pagmamahal. kaya ang labo din kasi nagseset ang mga tao, straight man o homosexuals, ng standards na hahanapin natin:<BR/><BR/>>Yung iba, talagang naka stick sa set of rules na un , kaya hindi nagtatagal. Kunwari, ang gwapo nga, maliit naman ang *toot*, aba, ibibreak na dahil maliit ang *toot*. Nakipagbreak dahil ang nasa check list niya ay biyaheng Dakota Harison Plaza<BR/><BR/>>Yung iba, despite ng napakagandang attribute ng taong nahook up nila, dahil sa pag uugali, namahal na nila kaya sila na forever, perfect combination ba kung tawagin. <BR/><BR/>>Yung iba, which is napipilitang magtagal sa relasyon kasi yung nabingwit niya eh pwdeng i front sa maraming tao na hello ang gwapo ng BF ko, kahit masama naman ang ugali.<BR/><BR/>>yung iba, which is mababang percentage lang, nagtatagal kasi mahal talaga nila ang isat isa kahit ano man ang itsura. <BR/><BR/>OMG, I need to write my own article on this, mahirap pag comment lang. hahhaha. <BR/><BR/>The point here is that, gusto man nating baguhin, ang pagbabago ay kailangang manggaling mismo sa mga taong gumagawa nito. <BR/><BR/>Ilan ba ang mga bakla sa Pilipinas, gusto man nating kausapin isa isa upang maabolish ang ganitong practice ay hindi natin kakayanin. <BR/><BR/>hay...<BR/><BR/>another unresolved issue.

What you describe is true for ...I agree with Yffar. What you describe is true for people, gay or straight, looking for casual sex. However, intimacy and meaningful relationships do not operate under these principles.<BR/><BR/>Part of the problem is that unlike straights, gays do not have deeply imprinted myths and metaphors to rely upon when figuring out the deepening of intimacy between two people, di ba? This is slowly changing with the explosion of independent gay cinema, but these few movies are nothing compared to the constant onslaught of the teleserye with the man + woman story.<BR/><BR/>This is even more amplified by our country's obsession's with children and how child-bearing functions in family-making.<BR/><BR/>So I agree with Yffar. These mathematical rules are only applicable in the calculus of hookups and are irrelevant to the matters of the heart.LoFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17790755800889443785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-82367745087520085482009-03-31T09:23:00.000-07:002009-03-31T09:23:00.000-07:00trulalootrulalooDiwatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05167713486772971805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-86542002281484350742009-03-31T07:22:00.000-07:002009-03-31T07:22:00.000-07:00I disagree with "being chub or effem" as a total c...I disagree with "being chub or effem" as a total curse.<BR/><BR/>I don't feel being cursed.<BR/><BR/>Mas masaya ang maging malandi at maharot!<BR/><BR/>That's all.<BR/><BR/>Tse!<BR/><BR/>LOL...https://www.blogger.com/profile/06939610365246933349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-40595592960483631822009-03-31T07:01:00.000-07:002009-03-31T07:01:00.000-07:00true for hook ups and cruisin'.hehehehehndi ito tr...true for hook ups and cruisin'.<BR/><BR/>hehehehe<BR/><BR/>hndi ito true love kapag gnagawa ito ng mga tao.<BR/><BR/>echos langYffar (^^,)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02254316148983198508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620093712762825386.post-44101718810190975922009-03-31T06:59:00.000-07:002009-03-31T06:59:00.000-07:00Whoa..!
