On Hating Gay Men


For the first time, after about three years of blogging, I received a series of messages in this blog directed against me and the whole gay community. The messages are in direct assault to us, gay men so I decided to reject them.

I allow all messages in this blog even if they are against my opinion or even if they lambast the movies that I write. But messages of hatred against my fellow gay men have no space in this blog.

Mr. gay hater, I am hoping that you read this post as well.

Ask yourself why is there so much hatred within you against gay men? Consider the fact that normal, psychologically healthy individuals do not harbor such hatred against the queer community. They may not agree with what we, gay men do with our sex lives, but they certainly do not go around reading gay blogs and composing letters of hatred against a minority population.

I challenge you to look within yourself and understand this source of hatred. This process may take some time but whatever its outcome, i assure you this will lead you to better self acceptance and understanding that the world around us is more complex and more diverse that we can actually comprehend.

Peace be with you.

baka may bad experience sya with gays in the past. I can't speak for him, pero a number of people i know na galit sa mga gay namolestya dati or something. kung valid ang reason niya, hindi rin natin sya masisisi. marami rin kasi tayong mga kauri na napakabalahura, nagbibigay lang ng kahihiyan for us civilized gay people dahil na-aassociate tayo sa kanila.

According to a lot of scientific studies, those so called "hetero" who harbor hatred against gay men are actually GAY themselves. They fear being OUTED while they are in their closets. They envy those who are free to express themselves without having to hide. I think not too long ago, you posted something about a study wherein a group of men were shown M2M videos and those so called "straight" men had a raging hard on while watching them. If a straight man gets a hard on while watching M2M videos, what does that tell you?
