Manila Gay Guy

Dear Migs!

Just wanted to commend on the success of your blog, Im one of the regular readers and comfortable reading your entries and comments and personally waiting again for you to buzzed me again when you’re in my area (San Francisco). I never thought that one day I will write to ask for an advice.

I joined a Christian community to a thought that I can be change, not….. though im trying. Just when I thought I will live a straight life when I met in the community Mac-Mac just a regular guy and not my usual type as I described him to my friends. But the guy is oozing with sex appeal. Then I remember a saying that you will never find your ideal person but instead you will be given the opposite of it and I think he is the one. Not my ideal but yet i like the person. Now the catch… he is straight again straight!

For those who’ve come here wondering why the post “Ang Natatanging Takda” is nowhere to be found, I removed it.

“Ang Natatanging Takda” was a joke circulating through SMS, implying Piolo Pascual is gay. When I received it, it made me laugh and I thought I’d share it here in my blog.

From the comments the post gathered, it seemed a number of folks took offense. Some even implied that I was ridiculing the community. Whoa.

Migs the Manila Gay Guy apologizes to those who found the joke offensive. I sincerely thought it was not offensive. Even till now. But because it was just a joke, and should not be taken too seriously, I don’t mind taking it down.

Let’s move on?

This article was written by John Lapus. Funny, witty, yet rings true. I so like the ending, so world peace! Taray mo `teh!

Si Carol Dauden, na isang magaling aktres, at si Aiza Seguera, na mahusay na mang-aawit, ay umamin na—sila ay mga tomboy. Mukha naman silang masaya sa kanilang pag-amin. Mas naging malaya sila. Natanggap naman sila ng mga pamilya nila at mga kaibigan. Pero bakit ang mga bakla sa showbiz, isang damukal ang ayaw umamin. Yung iba, tumanda na, at yung iba naman, namatay na pero hindi umamin. Namatay nang nagtatago. Namatay nang hindi malaya. Kawawang bakla.

Hi migs, i must admit that i am thrilled how you and some of your readers have had so much encounters… at least with guys (if they are all authentic). well, here’s me also sharing some of my not-so-great adventures.

well, i’m 21, neat-looking, tall, white, mid way between medium built and thin, working at a so-so coffee shop doing brand communications stuff. grew up at a province but went back to manila for college. i was raised like a normal boy should be, only that i have lived only with my sister (at least for more than 6 years when i was in my puberty stage). i guess this was the reason why i act almost effeminate, but not quite. during my highschool and college days, i was the typical boy next door: kind, open, friendly, and smart (tends to be a geek at times). also, i was very active at extra-curriculars: top CAT officer, captain of the dance group, best actor for teatro, HS choir member, chorale president (in college), and a frequent contestant in bees and oratoricals. often admired by ladies, i am a hopeless romantic who would do so much just so the girl of his dreams would come to life. i don’t mind giving bouquets of roses, or gigantic bear gifts to girls, in fact i like it when others stare at me with these (dagdag pogi points din yun!). so that’s the typical me – a “good boy” often in and out of relationships with the campus cutties… that’s what i let them see.

Hi Migs,

I don’t know what made me send this letter to you. I can say that I’m a fan of your site- a regular visitor. I have read a lot of letters from your readers, and I must say I can pretty much relate to some of them.

My dilemma starts with me, being gay, in a “Christian” family. It’s hard; I grew-up attending Sunday school, I even became a Sunday-school teacher myself, and sometime in my life thought of becoming a pastor, but I know something is different with me.

hi migs,

im bob and im 23 years old. i am working here in makati. i admit that i dont read your blog regularly because all blog sites are blocked in the office and we just recently had our internet connection back at home.

i always wanted to write you about my dilemma. i know that it is no longer unusual for you to hear stories about this but i believe you will be a big help. i’ve just heard your podcast about closet badet and i admire those three to tell those stories.

i know my sexual preference isn’t normal, as others may say. but im not pressured to come out, and shout and declare to the world that im gay, or should i say bisexual. whatever you call it. i have had 2 serious relationship with guys but im still open to have a girlfriend. i still keep on thinking of raising a family in the future but i think it will remain as a plan. i do believe that it would be unfair to the girl, and even unfair to myself considering my preference.

Late bloomer – that’s the term we usually use to describe those people who explored their homosexuality a little later than usual. This is the case of JC, our letter sender for today. JC is set to get married to his girlfriend of 4 years early next year, when he recently met the to-be-wife’s gorgeous hunky cousin Daryl. In short, Daryl turned JC’s world upside down, and the to-be-husband is naturally confused. The question: should he risk his wedding plans to give himself a chance to explore his dormant homosexual tendencies? Or should he shut the feelings up, and go straight on with his heterosexual plans?

Hi Migs,

I chance upon your site while surfing today. Wonderful site for gay people. I feel so comfortable with your site. I was able to read the letter of fatboyslim and some of the advices that were given to him by your readers (some are rude) that I decided to share to you my problem and hopefully I will be able to get some advice from you and your readers.

I am John, friends call me JC, 29 years old and currently connected with a call center here in Ortigas. I have a girlfriend for 4 years now, and we’re planning to get married early next year. I love her for God knows how long, (we’ve been together since high school) and I know she will be the one I want to spend the rest of my life with.

The problem started last December.

Not all who write to me are readers carrying crosses, problems, and issues. This one in particular, a woman who calls herself Monalisa, is a happy reader, a happy writer, who testifies how happy she is that her husband is a gay man. Read on.

dear migs,

i’ve been longing to send you this mail but time really does not permit me to do so until now.
i hope you can withhold my identity as well as my husband’s … he comes from a well off family in leyte and he’s gay — but not the open type — the best term could be CLOSET GAY.

Mercy Daily, Janvier’s mom, sent the following letter to Migs. Mrs. Daily reacts to the public’s opinions regarding Janvier’s “nude photo scandal” and his controversial interview by Jun Lana. She says, “I wish he (Janvier) will stop showbiz if he wants me to live longer.” Why did she say so? Find out by reading her letter below.

Dear Migs,

You are the most trusted person among the friends of my son Janvier, for the fact that you are the first one to give my son a starting foot in your blog (MGG).

Everytime I miss my son I just go online to see and read what’s the latest, as I live far from him in Baguio.

Thank you very much for the article about the naked photograph of my son (uncensored) I was in Surigai when I 1st saw the photo and it made me cry.I pity my son being taken advantage of in that way by the person who took the photo withouit thinking of how it would offend me and of course my son Janvier. My big question is where is the consience of the person who took the photo for Janvier was so tired that night when they took advantage. Walang Kalabanlaban ang anak ko sa ginawa nya o nila.Wala rin sila consensya as a mother i am so affected by what may have seemed to them as a joke but above all this the most worst thing they did was to spread it all over the internet.
