We beg to differ.
Perhaps I’m weird, but I never got the logic of how pride marches lead to respect. To me, such marches are like being a siga (macho bully) in town, going around and demanding respect from others, and when someone does not give that respect, he beats them up. LGBTs don’t usually beat people up, the…

This, it seems, is the underlying premise of the “Gay Movement”. An entire industry, a vast landscape of political agendas, and lucrative businesses have been built around this debatable premise.

The case back then where Gretchen Fullido sued women executives for sexual harassment was interesting. You thought sexual harassment between women wasn’t possible. But it is.

The word “bakla” is a derogatory term. When I was in grade school in an all-boys school, we called school mates who exhibited effeminate behaviour bakla.
