One Night and 3 Manila Gay Bars (Part 2)

January 19th, 2008

Note: For purposes of this entry, gay bar will refer to a club/bar catering to gay men and straight women and this bar has what most people know as a macho dancer. For an easier reference point, let’s just say that a gay bar is the equivalent of our straight men’s girly bars cum nightclubs.

(Continued from Part 1)

For Mankind

We hopped on to the car and started driving along the neon-lit road, with a recently-taken mental picture of Timog at night. We headed to our next destination: a bar with a name we all were sure was a gay bar. What do you expect a bar named Club Mankind to be?

A straight guy (or at least he looked like he was) in his late twenties and looked like a has-been celebrity welcomed us outside their doorstep. O, our group’s most daring gay guy, recited his script on inquiring about a stripper for a bridal shower. After about a minute or two of them discussing, we were accompanied into the small waiting area cum lobby of the club. We took our spots on the couch and waited for uhm, we didn’t know what we were waiting for. On the walls of that small lobby hung framed photos of their “models” in different shapes and colors of underwear. We all agreed that the models from Maginoo were more good-looking and more decent-looking than most of those glaring and smiling at us from within the frames. After about five minutes, a semi-stocky gay guy in a green outfit (blouse and lorts) with a huge and wide horsetail-type leather necklace pendant (pendant pa lang yun ha!) hanging from his neck to his hips, and carrying something that resembled a clipboard, came out from the door and welcomed us with a wide grin and with a welcoming aura around him.

This may come as a shock to many, but prior to this entry, I have never been to a gay bar! I have been to quite a few girly bars (most of which were in Fields Ave., Clark Field Pampanga) with some old (straight) friends. Ah, those were the straight days!  I’ve seen women (which I formerly referred to as “chicks”) clad in skimpy outfits and in various states of undress.  I’ve seen them gyrate to numerous remixes of Careless Whisper.  I have “tabled” one or two of them.  I have…  Let’s leave that grossly uninteresting past and move on.

Yes, I have seen all that, but I have never been to a Gay Bar! When friends talk about gay bars and their experiences in them, my mind used the substitution technique so I could at least relate to the gay bar stories.  Instead of seeing those “chicks” I have seen before,  I replace them with hot, hunky men in various states of undress and gyrating to endless remixes of Careless Whisper. It worked for me and I just looked forward to that time when I’d be able to go to a gay bar.

Until one night in January…

12 New Year’s Resolutions for Gay Men

December 28th, 2007

At the risk of getting branded as judgmental and discriminatory, we are ushering in the new year with something most people make, but do not do. Here are some resolutions that we can suggest to gay men around the country and around the world as we welcome a new year. Some of these are tongue-in-cheek suggestions and it’s up to you if you want to follow them or not. At the end of the day, it’s all about you! Life is what you make it and while you’re at it, make it good!

 12 New Year’s Resolutions for Gay Men

1. Take Abs Bitter Herbs
Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Get over him and move on. The truth is, he’s just not into you. Take some Abs Bitter Herbs or Charantia, it’ll help you. Promise.

2. From Bi to Bi-yot
If you’re really gay and have no interest in anything related to the female reproductive organ, stop calling yourself a bisexual. Real bisexuals are those who get attracted emotionally and sexually to both male and female. If you’re discreet and straight-acting, and your greatest nightmare is having to look at a vagina, YOU ARE NOT BI! You are Bi-Yot! Bayot!

3. Hair Products: There’s Always Tomorrow
Kung makapag-hair wax ka, parang wala nang bukas! There’s always room for more hair product on your hair tomorrow.

4. Panggaperang Kuba
If you’re discreet, are in the closet, or are not that confident about your looks, just post photos of your body or any other part of it in social networking sites. It’s better that way than be a panggaperang kuba and use other people’s photos. The same goes for profile content. Be true to yourself. Tandaan, maraming pinapatay sa maling akala.

5. Sell Your Drama
We all know you have issues about your love and sex life. But stop sulking inside your closet and sell your drama. Don’t feel too sorry for yourself. Trust me, there are many others out there who have lives worse than yours. Sell your drama, write a journal, write a blog, write a book!

Got Pride?

November 12th, 2007

Christmas is just around the corner. I’m sure some of you have already started doing your shopping or have at least started creating your wish lists. But before Christmas, there is something that we, gay men, should look forward to: The Annual Pride March.

The annual Pride March is different from the ones that are being held mid-year in Malate or Makati. (I think those are called Pride Parties?). This march is an annual gathering of Filipinos who embrace diversity and equality. This is the annual Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Pride March! It is a celebration of LGBT pride and solidarity!

Philippines Annual Pride March

Anyone and everyone can join! Be you a boy, be you a girl, be you gay, be you lesbian, be you bi – you are invited to the event! And no, there isn’t any dress code. You can come as you are or come as someone else! Bring your own baons too mother, father, brother sister, (how do you brush your teeth?). This event aims to raise consciousness about LGBT issues and concerns, while having fun of course. (Visit the 2007 Manila Pride March Blog for more info, updates, and volunteer work)

Pride is about dignity. Own it.

Flaunt your rights.

Celebrate your freedom.

Join the 2007 Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride March on December 8, 2007.

ALL YOU NEED IS PRIDE!

Enlarge Your Penis!

November 11th, 2007

What is it about size that makes a lot of people want big dicks? I haven’t found any studies proving or disproving the theory that Asian men have smaller cocks, but my personal experience tells me that there may be some truth to it. I don’t know about you but I’m doing fine given my “Asian” size.  Why? Uhm, let’s just say that I prioritize quality over quantity. BEsides, I’m no size queen and as was divulged by Rye in their latest Pinas Podcast of the Dan and Rye Show, I only have sex at least once in five months! But to be honest, I like looking at cocks and prefer watching porn if the cock sizes are not small.  They don’t necessarily have to be large or as large as the World’s Largest Cock.  Just not too small.

world's biggest cockA few weeks ago, I posted something about receiving spam emails about enlarging my cock. Yes, these people who create these spam emails are quite the creative types coming up with hilarious subject lines.  I used to take note of these but lost that list.  So today, when I checked my emails while reading some kwentong kalibugan on the side (yes, I’m very good at multitasking), I got distracted by the spam messages on my inbox.  I listed them down and came up with this brand new list:

My Dick is SPAM!

October 26th, 2007

My Dick is SPAM.

Uhm, well, ahh… Not the size of SPAM. (Though I wonnder how it would be like to have a dick like SPAM… err, weird!)

My Dick is a SPAM-Magnet!

Seriously, every time I read through my emails, I always get emails which seem to ridicule me and my little johnny boy. I’m sure many of you get these kinds of emails too. I don’t mind getting them, at least not anymore. I have gotten used to them that I noticed the creative minds behind these junk emails – phishing and scamming or leading you to doom. Those who are ignorant and insecure fall for these traps and end up blowing up their computers and but not their dick sizes.

Even if these junk emails are poorly constructed (syntax-wise or otherwise), I must hand it to them, they sure excrete bucketloads of creative juices. They catch you with subject lines like: “Be a Better Man,” “Be the Bigger Man,” “Don’t let her go away,” and then some more. Sometimes, they’ll be direct and use: “Your Penis is too small!” Now how the freak did they know that I’ve got a teenie-weaner like the yummy Enrique? Stalk much eh?

Not The Only Gay in the Village!

October 5th, 2007

 

As we mentioned earlier this week, the National Coming Out Day is almost here. It’s a time of freedom, individuality, self-realizations and acceptance. It’s time to be out and proud!

You see our dear friends, it may have been the fault of this blog why some people haven’t yet come out or don’t want to come out. We are surmising that this is about our use of the term bakla, we have identified ourselves as bakla and some people associate the word bakla with the author of this blog or this blog. (feeling sikat no? feeling? We’re just kidding, you know that, right?)

Well it’s about time we came out and reached out with open arms and open legs to all our dear gay friends out there! baklang aj is not the only gay in this village! we don’t have a monopoly, nor do we have the intellectual property rights to the term bakla.

You too can be gay, you too can be Bakla! Bakla ka, bakla ako, bakla siya, bakla tayong lahat!

Kaya’t halina kafateed, makibakla, huwag matakot!

 If you’re not gay but have gay friends and family members, or if you consider yourself a fab hag, or if you are straight and believe in the causes of the gay and lesbian community, this is your chance! Come out and support gay bloggers! You can do this by posting an entry about YOU coming out to SUPPORT the causes of the gay community (e.g. enactment
of anti-discrimination bill
) or just post any of these images below.

            

 

                        

We’re all in this together! Come out, come out!

Don’t believe in a thing called Pinoy Gay bloggers? Check out this list of gay bloggers » Read more: Not The Only Gay in the Village!
