February 19, 2016 Grimwald 22 Comments

Well, there goes the neighborhood ladies and gentlemen. It seems that everyone is having a heyday over Manny Pacquiao’s recent comments about his stance on same-sex marriage and his apparent insult towards the LGBT community by comparing them to animals and implying that they may well be worse. The LGBT community reacted accordingly and as one can…

Why Does the Philippines Even Exist?

February 19, 2016 zaxx 40 Comments

Why ask why? Well, as much as what, when, where, or how is as valid enough a starting word for an inquiry, I like to ask WHY questions because it makes us THINK. And I really encourage more Filipinos to get into the habit of doing so because it’s great cerebral-gymnastics exercise – being one…

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

February 18, 2016February 19, 2016 FallenAngel 12 Comments

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. To the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) community in the Philippines, all seems…

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

February 18, 2016February 18, 2016 Ilda 43 Comments

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. I know it for a fact because I am straight and I have no choice but to live a heterosexual lifestyle. I’m lucky to be a heterosexual because homosexuals…

3 Things In The Philippines That Are Worse Than Homosexuality

February 17, 2016 Grimwald 27 Comments

Well, there it goes ladies and gentlemen, my recent article about my approval regarding same-sex relationships and my scathing criticism against Manny Pacquiao are being read and critiqued both fairly and unfairly by our readers here at GRP.

The futility in outrage over Manny Pacquiao’s homophobia

February 17, 2016 rsurtida 22 Comments

The recent outrage over Manny Pacquiao’s statements about the LGBT community is just a media-covered exercise of something that every Pinoy—educated or otherwise—live with and even practice on a daily basis. Pacquiao simply represents the groupthink of Filipinos. And, unfortunately, Filipinos are among the biggest anti-LGBT group of people in existence. Just take a walk…

Why I Find Vitriol Against ‘Homophobes’ Disturbing

February 17, 2016 Hector Gamboa 91 Comments

Over the weekend, 8 time world boxing champion and senatorial candidate, Rep. Manny Pacquiao, got himself on the receiving end of verbal flurries from netizens and celebrities that were probably a lot more stinging than the beating he took from his arch-rival Juan Manuel Marquez. This happened after he expressed his disagreement on same-sex marriage…
