Mga Tanong: Pwede bang ma-consider legally ang domestic partnership between gay couples ngayon sa Pilipinas? Up to what extent pwede marecognize ang partner ko? Anong gagawin mo if you are fired from work because you are gay? Anong gagawin mo kung nahuli ka sa isang bathouse, massage parlor or sinehan na gumagawa ng milagro? Pwede ba akong mag-adopt ng child if I am single and gay? Ano ba yung bagansya at paano ko mapo-protektahan ang sarili ko? Paano kung may nagkalat ng chismis na bakla ako or may HIV ako, anong laban ko sa mata ng batas at human rights?

I was on my way home when I got an itch to tune in to "Good times with Mo, Mojo and Grace Lee" on Magic 89.9. I've been hearing a lot about the trio from a friend on how good they carry any topics that's being brought on the table. She said it's a good jump-start for her day, I said what the "f" I work during graveyard. But still I gave in. DJ Mo heading the trio, is known for being bold, straight to the point, eloquent, witty, spontaneous and entertaining. I know no one that I know (or close to me) would admit that they like Mo Twister, or maybe few or very, very few rather. In the entertainment business, someone who's very upfront, tactless and sharp will always have a bunch of haters. Maybe more than half of the population who knows him hates him just like maybe same percentage of the Pinoy that hates Kris Aquino. Tell it to me. Why am I not surprised? Anywho, they can talk about anything and everything under the sun - from politics, current eve...

I can't believe that people just don't seem to get it. Being against gay marriage is as bad as being a racist. I'm gay, I'm asian and believe me persecution is the same no matter what it's target - black, white, gay, lesbian, etc. Prop 8 = HATE and that makes me hurt for all of us. We need to stop hovering in people's bedrooms and get down to the business of fixing this world-wide problem. The video made me cry. Its one of the most powerful videos I have ever watched in my entire life. I can’t believe how selfish people can be, to only want what is in their agenda. think everyone is entitled to happiness, regardless of what sex, race and culture. The video was beautiful and made me unhappy to see how many faces and people from so many walks of life will be wounded by this obvious act of bigotry. Give everyone EQUAL RIGHTS and get your heads out of the sand people. Gay is not a choice, just like I didn't choose to be asian! Two people who love each other and ...
