Stop the Gay Films!



in photo: Douglas Robinson and Paolo Rivero in "Little Boy/ Big Boy"

"Stop the Gay Films...in UP", this is exactly what's on the mind of the MTRCB officials who sued UP for exhibiting the director's cut versions of their pink films.

And due to this pending case between UP and MTRCB, our film "Little Boy/ Big Boy", directed by Joselito Altarejos about a gay man discovering the value of fatherhood and domestic partnership WILL NOT HAVE AN UNCUT VERSION PREMIERE at the UP Film Institute, which is supposed to be the bastion of academic freedom and expression.

The joy of watching gay films in UP may soon be over.

Mark Dionisio




I stumbled into some photos of Mark Dionisio, one of the busiest sexy actors in the early 2000 with about twenty erotic B movies to his credit.

Having seen him audition for some roles, I could say that Mark Dionisio is one of the most talented hubaderos in this country. He's got depth when he acts and can attack a character with considerable intelligence (for one, I heard, he studied in UP Integrated School)

It's just unfortunate that he doesn't get good roles from serious projects.

I wonder where he is now.

Lessons From a Gay Icon




I was once inside the mansion of this popular gay businessman.

In one of the displayed photos, I noticed how good looking his partner during their younger days. They have been together for more than 20 years, quite a feat for the fleeting gay relationships nowadays.

The businessman shared with me that his partner was then a dancer. He was smitten by his charm so he did everything (and spent everything) to pursue this man.

He told me on nugget of wisdom that he seems cherish in his life: "Sa umpisa, pera pera ang usapan. Sa katagalan, matututunan ka rin niyang mahalin" (at first, it's all about money, but after a while, he will soon learn to love you)

Mr. businessman comes from a different era. Gay Men were yet to be recognized at that time where he found his lover. And for this reason, I understand where he is coming from.

But I certainly do not adhere to this piece of advice.

At the back of my mind, I was wondering, with that considerably impressive wealth that he has built, who wouldn't love him at all?

The Discreet Gay Pinoy in the 70's



Last night, I had the rare opportunity of watching the Lino Brocka revolutionary gay film "Tubog sa Ginto".

The film is revolutionary in the sense that it featured a masculine homosexual as lead character during the early 70's. Back then, gay men in Philippine cinema were cross dressing and objects of humor and slapstick devices.

In this film, Eddie Garcia plays a "discreet" homosexual family man who can no longer make love with his wife and who has uncontrollable desires whenever he sees crotches of men.

Yes, this film is definitely revolutionary, with a parade of crotches from several men, frontal nudity from nude dancers in a dream sequence and butt exposure from the hunky Eddie Garcia and former actor and now, a maverick filmmaker Mario O' Hara.

The film is a domestic melodrama on how the homosexuality of Benito (played by Eddie Garcia) destroys his family eventually leading to the (SPOILER ALERT!)...

death of his lover (Mario O' Hara) and his suicide.

As a melodrama, (it is from the story of Mars Ravelo, the king of comics, illustrated novels in the Philippines and the screenplay of Brocka) it adheres to formulaic tragedy that was common in that era's narratives -- coincidences, dramatic confrontations and clear, linear narrative following the lead character's psychological dilemma.

A breakthrough in this film is that the "wisdom" of society was assigned to the "doctor friend" and not to a priest which was very common in that time. Here, the doctor explains that the son (played by Jay Ilagan) should learn to accept his father being gay just as he would accept a person with disability. (in that era, homosexuality was listed a psychiatric disease in medical manuals)

This film is a must see if you are a Filipino gay film afficionado.

I heard that many of Brocka's rare films will be screened in the upcoming Cinemalaya this year. I hope "Tubog sa Ginto" will be one of them.

John LLoyd & Luis in a Gay Relationship



Yes, Box Office Superstar John Lloyd Cruz and Luis Manzano are in a gay relationship in Star Cinema's "In My Life" which also stars one of the icons of Philippine Cinema, Vilma Santos.

Shoot was done in New York. And the film is slated for release on September!

Thank you Senedy Que for this picture!

Yummy Cum



Do you like swallowing your man's cum?

Here are a few tips for him to do to have a "delicious" cum from Outrage Magazine

WHAT TO EAT:
plums, mangoes, pineapples, nectarines, oranges, lemons, limes, parsley, coriander, buko, spearmint, peppermint, grapefruit and green tea and sweets.

Diabetics' semen tends to have a honey or cantaloupe flavour because of the excess sugars in their bodies.

DON'T EAT:
asparagus, chicken, garlic, onions, dairy products, red meat, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, greasy food, spices, coffee, and chocolate.

Based on this information, i realized, I must have a bad tasting cum. And I don't intend to taste it at all just to prove it to myself. And I don't intend to change my diet just to have a "delectable" cum!

Co-existencce


posted by a friend on my facebook wall:


GAY.

Trend? It's not a shirt.

Rampant? It's not a disease.

It was here way before any of you were born. It's here to stay.

Tolerance, no. Acceptance, no. How do you accept something that preceeded you? It should accept you. You were born into a world with homosexuality. You are in it's turf. You are in the turf of heterosexuals and homosexuals alike.

Co-existence.
