Why Filipinos are not ready to fully embrace ‘gay rights’

Any discission on the future of the “gay rights” movement in the Philippines has to start with the teachings of Filipinos’ Christian faith — because, at the moment, religion is stubbornly baked into Filipinos’ sense of identity. But, Christian teaching in general — and Catholic dogma specifically — categorically lists homosexuality and its derivative lifestyles…

Sure, perhaps she might feel she is surrounded by idiots who hold supposedly bigoted views about the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community.

Why Manny Pacquiao can still win an election despite his homophobic slur

Manny Pacquiao is in an unenviable position right now. He has just faced all sorts of backlash in response to his statement that “homosexuals are worse than animals.” Nike has recently dropped their contract with him. His Senate run seems in peril.

Homosexuality is normal just like Manny Pacquiao’s homophobia is normal

If you were a straight person, meaning not gay or a lesbian, can you imagine yourself choosing a homosexual lifestyle? The answer is no, you can’t.

No, really. Why DO you? Have you ever given it much thought? Yes, this is probably for many one of those “let’s not go there” topics. But we will go there, simply because I can.   Why do you subject yourself to the hassle of having to compete with other couples in your neck of…

Original Sin And What It May Mean For Filipinos…

As the presidential election continues to get closer and closer, I write this article to give Filipinos a good idea on what I think is genuinely wrong with the country… What’s somewhat disappointing among Pinoys is that we tend to focus too much on individuals and their many wrongdoings rather than what actually pushes them…
