A Hat



I started noticing a lot of people posting their NoH8 photos on Tumblr

earlier today. So what I did was to reblog all NoH8 photos I saw on Tumblr. And I did that through the new Tumblr blog I created: The NoH8 Project on Tumblr.

And boy are Tumblrs fast! The blog now has a total of 37 Tumblr followers and we have been receiving quite a number of contributions. Thank you!

And even though I am not from California (Im not even in the United States - Im in the Philippines, and Im not even American!), I believe in this campaign. I have been following news and updates about Prop8 for as long as I can remember. I believe in a cause like this. I believe that no matter where you are in the world, no matter what race, color, religion, or sexual orientation you have, hate (H8) is never a good thing.

The predominantly Catholic nation of the Philippines is still worlds away from gay marriage or marriage equality, but it does not mean that the LGBT Community and our friends here do not have something to fight for. Believe it or not, we still do not have laws that protect the basic rights of members of the LGBT community.

What we are fighting for now is the enactment of the Anti-Discrimination Bill, which has been a bill for almost a decade now. I believe that a campaign similar to NoH8 can be done here and I really hope we can do something to further our cause and our call for EQUAL (not special) rights.

So to all those who followed the NoH8 Tumblr Project and those who have contributed, Thank you!

Pinoy Big Brother ex-housemate Uma Khouny has long been rumored to be gay. Not that there’s something wrong about being gay. Duh? Like the title of this blog asks, “Bakla Ako, May Reklamo?” [I’m gay, got a problem with that?], If Uma is indeed gay, should we take it against him? I highly doubt it. Our sexual orientation should be something we should be proud of.Of course we need not brandish our homosexuality to the whole world. It’s our choice to be out or in the closet. And yes, if Uma is indeed gay, it is his choice to stay inside the closet. But he says he’s straight so let’s leave it at that. A newbie to the local entertainment industry, chances of him committing career suicide by coming out are high - or so he thinks. This is the part where I namedrop the likes of Rustom Padilla, Hollywood celebs Lance Bass of NSync, TR Knight of Grey’s Anatomy, and Neil Patrick Harris of How I Met Your Mother (but shot up to fame with Doogie Houser, MD). For most of them, ever since they came out (or were forcibly outed), their careers have shot up.

I think it’s the latest trend in the entertainment industry around the world today - seemingly and questionably straight actors and celebrities have come out of the closet. In ultra-conservative Mexico, pop star Christian Chavez, has recently broken the gay taboo with his coming out of the closet. And in more recent news,

This photo has been circulating through emails, blogs, and MMS. Of course evryone knows that this is a fake. The original photo, as shown in the inset of the photo below from PEP, sure made Sam and Papa Piolo heave sighs of relief. (Erm, that doesn’t prove or disprove anything right?)

 


But this picture and this other picture (I’m only posting a link to the site since the photos are copyrighted and you will have to pay for them) , I found through Google are both very intriguing! The other photos are as well! These were photos taken by Josh Andowitt during a Samiolo-And-Other-Pinoy-Artists concert in LA.

Enter Kuh Ledesma:

Sinong, dakila? Sino ang tunay na Bading?

Sinong mapalad
Sinong tumatawag ng habag
Yaon bang sinilang na ang pag-iisip ay kapos

Ooh…..Ahh…….

Sa kanyang kilos at galaw tayo ay naaaliw
Sa ating mga mata isa lamang siyang bading
Ngunit kung tayo ay hahatulang sabay
Sa mata ng Maykapal, siya’y higit na bading
