Well its month of July and the Gay Pride around the world are now starting but some just finished with a very wonderful parade!!!
It is very essential to be part of this parade and celebration!!! It is the time when all of the gay people in the world start to unite and fight for the freedom, equality and diversity that we wanted long time ago!!!
In the Philippines, still, the gaypeople are not that united because of the inside discrimation (meaning: they discriminate each other) and this is a very sad fact that we need to admit! I attended the gay pride party last 2004, 2005 & 2006 and i miss this year's gay pride party... Thou most of them attend the party to look for someone to hook up or someone to meet for possible one night stand or a one night for forever romance.
To tell you honestly, one reason why I joined Mr. Gay Philippines 2007 is not only for the position or for the title just to come to US and c0mpete for an international competition but to show the world that we homosexuals can be a role model and give a positive image in our own community. Im a hidden activist, you know?!!! But thats my mission i think... Not only to accept, but to be visible to the public that we also need the same right that the straight people have...
Right now... its really hard for me to go and fight especially if you are in an Arab country where gays are not allowed.
Thou I miss this year's pride, I beleive that accepting myself as a real, true gayguy.. I know that deep within I commemorate and proud that I belong to this community... But then, I ask many gay people to support the projects, objectives, mission and vision of our community and be united so that we can live equally and have a great life not only for ourselves but in the future with ur partner and family...
HAPPY PRIDE EVERYONE!!!!
