Bakla Ako, May Reklamo?

You see them in the gym pumping those heavy iron bars.  You see them at the malls, making you drool and fantasize about licking their bemuscled biceps and chest. They look so hot and highly unattainable because they are straight. But wait!  Are they really?

Louie Cano, author of queer books “Baklese: Pinoy Pop Queer Dictionary” and “Brusko Pink”, has come out with yet another book: “Masculadoll: Mga Sanaysay ng Buhay Bading na di Buking”. Masculadoll is a collection of hilarious and insightful essays in Filipino on gay Filipino life. The title refers to muscular gays who are into pumping iron in gyms, a category to which the author belongs by virtue of his self-description: “Mukha siyang brusko, pero mas bakla pa siya kay Madonna.”

With titles like “Diva medida, siyete pulgada,” “Majess,” “Mga multong bakla sa tukador ni mudra,” and “’Nyetang Ex,” this collection of essays sure does promise a lot of laughs!

“Masculadoll” is available at all National Book Stores, PowerBooks, and other major book stores at P195 per copy.
