I don't think there is something wrong with being someone you feel who you really are. Even though the creator did mold us into a specific gender role in the society, but we can never tell who to fall in love with, and going over the borderline. Some people may think that being gay/lesbian is something funny or something that shouldn't be taken too seriously. But what they don't know is that the very person that they are trying to pull down, or take down, are the one's who really work hard into achieving what they want in life. Filipino's for a fact are very hard working people, and really strive to get what they want to accomplish in life and try their very best to make a mark in the country or even the world. However the gay/lesbian society are even MORE hard working and MORE EAGER to make a difference in the world we live in today. It doesn't necessarily mean that being gay/lesbian the only thing they want in life are full of fun, laughter, and sex. They too have feelings, ambitions, and goals that they want to accomplish, to make a stand for what is right, and to make a stand in the society.
I read one time in a blog that in some other countries, there are gay men who still go on to marrying a woman, however within that relationship called marriage, they too, still flirt, and have sex with men. I just don't think that there is anything wrong about being gay. I mean, we are human beings, we were given the power to make our own decisions, to do what we want to do, in other words, FREE WILL.
I just don't get it with the society that we live in today. If you try on going to any one of the gay/lesbian websites in the country, you would see countless gays and lesbians hiding, saying that they are discreet, good looking, and has a body to die for.
Them being discreet, I don't know, if the word discreet is being used properly in our generation today.
I mean, we all want to be happy right? why can't we just do the things that we really want in life, in general, by taking the course we want in education, the food we want to eat, the places or bars we want to go to, and even to mingle with the same sex.
Gays and Lesbians, have rights too(in some countries). But, beside the fact, that they too, sorry, i meant to say, But WE too, are people, human beings, that can feel emotions, can do their job's proficiently and even better, can do a lot more in life, than hiding in a stupid closet that wasn't opened for years, and can do the same things as the regular straight male and female.
But why are we still discriminated, why are we still on the bottom of the chain when it comes to the way the people look at us. WE ALL eat, drink and watch and even do the SAME THINGS and WEAR the SAME stuff as the whole world does.
Some of the world known personalities are gays/lesbians. They didn't let anyone get in their way of achieving the dream that they wanted, the goal that they wanted to reach, and the life that they are living right now. Even though they are gay/lesbian, they still made a difference. And they are known by everyone.
What do you get anyway from treating the gay/lesbian community in such a foul way? NOTHING, right? Yeah, it can be laughing matter, but, in the end, who goes up the top of the chain? and who goes down?
As we all know, there is a golden rule, stating that, "Don't do unto others, what you don't want to do unto you.." I also believe, that, in order to gain respect, you should first respect yourself, and if you don't even respect or care about the people around, what kind of treatment would you get from them in return?
Don't belittle us, we can do what we want to do, unafraid of what we want to do in life. And more eager to make a mark.
****these are just some of my point of views that i want to release. tension is building up, and sometimes can't keep it all inside. just needed to express. heheheh.. ÜÜÜÜÜÜÜ
