I want to be brave enough like Sebastian Castro.  I've managed to be subtle about my sexuality. But when one person knows about you, it is prone for other people to know about you unknowingly. You would know it by surprise when they outright wanted confirmation from you.  It is like a seed is being planted to grow a grapevine when you tell a person about something, in my case, my sexuality. And that is what I have experienced. Just this morning, a friend who is a blogger asked me about my real sexuality after hearing from another friend. He couldn't fathom when he heard about it from that friend and was even disgusted for hearing something slanderous about me. He couldn't imagine, he said. And so he wanted to confirm it. And I did tell hm to confirm. As for his reaction, it's priceless. There's no hint of a gay bone on me as he said. I am glad that people tend to be more open to you after knowing about the real you and I am also getting comfortable reve...

Gay bars in Cebu are known to be mostly strip clubs with young men called go-go boys dancing provocatively to win the hearts of their audience.  Macho dancer is a more popular term for a go-go boy in the Philippines. They are mostly young with muscular or toned bodies and attractive. The handsome lads of the crop of macho dancers get the most wow from the audience while those who manage to impress have the bodies or the "asset". But there is irony in having these strip clubs known as gay bars in the Philippines, especially in Cebu. A gay bar should be a hangout place for gays, not for supposedly gay yet straight dancers who cater to gay and women clientele for a night or a "short-time". It is mostly seen as a male-whore club than a place for hook-ups.  With the relabeling of gay bars in Cebu into male entertainment clubs, the public would now have an idea what kind of club they want to go for hook-ups. Because really, desperate old gay men go to gay bar...

I still remember when I was 11 when I had a calendar on the wall with pictures of celebrities under contract with Viva. Sharon Cuneta was the biggest star of Viva Films at that time. Next to her was Rustom Padilla, the younger brother of Robin Padilla. It would have been Robin Padilla but the Philippines' celebrated bad boy was spending his time in jail.  Rustom Padilla was a big star during the 1990's. I still remember my titas giggling whenever they got a glimpse of Rustom. Rustom and Carmina's love team at that time was very popular. Their beautiful looks which are eerily almost the same attributed their hit love team during the early to mid 1990's until their secret marriage. Rustom was the male fantasy of the 90's aside from Aga Muhlach and Richard Gomez. They were the three leading men of that decade with Rustom the biggest matinee idol of Viva Films while Richard Gomez and Aga Muchlach alternated between Star Cinema and Regal Films. 

I have yet to see a hotel or establishment in Cebu with a rainbow flag installed on their facades. It is still hard to classify an establishment to be gay-friendly or not.   I am thankful though that there are no records of bullying or some reports of sort in which the LGBT in Cebu are the victims. Perhaps, news about gays being fooled and swindled may have been passed on verbally but big news about the LGBT is about HIV cases rising in Cebu. The LoveYourself program, which took place in February 23, 2013 in Cebu City is an event I missed. I would have gone to the event with my special someone at that time but opted not to because of conflicts in schedule. The LGBT community in Cebu is not yet that obvious, but with the rise of bloggers in Cebu who identify themselves as belonging to LGBT can help in providing awareness about the community. With the rising of HIV cases in Cebu, more gays should be alarmed about it. I belong to a blogging community in Cebu in w...

It's surprising to have a blog that features gay bars in Cebu. I have come to like it for it is filled with information and the blog is well-written too. And impressed, I am. It is just that when it comes to gay bars in Cebu, the real gay bars have become scarce. They are now transformed into male entertainment bars catered to women clientele, especially Koreans. I remember back in 2006 when I visited Tarzan with my cousin. We might have been classified gay because we entered a gay bar. But the thing that surprised me though was that women outnumbered the guys in the audience. And mostly those who were male in the audience were just curious and just tagged along with their circle of friends. And another thing that is surprising was that female Koreans numbered in half in the total audience population. Gay bars in Cebu are now labeled as male entertainment bars. They thrive because of the female Korean clientele. And that leaves me with one question: where are the gays? The ...

Blame it on the gay blogger friend who introduced me to Sebastian Castro. I am somewhat obsessed with this guy that it'd take me days to get over this obsession and be back to my normal self. I resurrected this blog because I wanted to share some things about Sebastian Castro after just a night of watching his vids on YouTube. Why I come to love him is beyond me. It is rare for me to get too obsessed and I always have this sarcastic attitude that would turn down people. In other words, I am critical of people but I respect them. Just so you know, this blog is a gay alter ego of myself as a blogger who has done things....I don't want to divulge myself because it's risky. Let's leave it at that. I don't want to creep out Sebastian Castro on Twitter, which I happened to create for this blog. This gay alter ego happens to be straight-acting gay guy from the south of the Philippines. A few Pinoy gay story writers may have known me but my true self is still kept...

Rihanna made Diamond so big I've become addicted to the song. Sometimes unknowingly, I sing the line "Shine bright like a Diamond" that I even surprise myself.  I don't know if it's gay or not. Aside from Rihanna's video, there is a male cover version of Diamond that I really like. It is sung by a very cute male. But the way the rendition is made, I can't hep but speculate if he's gay. I really like the version and others too for it managed to bring millions of views on YouTube. I like the husky voice and the ad libs.
