<p>So, the next question is: <strong>which masseur should I request for?</strong></p>

<p>There is no direct quote from Pope Benedict XVI that is clearly homophobic, so I do not think we should take it as a real attack. Knowing the Catholic doctrine though, I am not really surprised that the Pope disapproves of the assumed typical homosexual lifestyle.  It&#8217;s Christmas, and today more than ever, I pray that the pope is blessed with the grace of universal love.  And I pray for us all for the same thing.  May we all learn to love everyone regardless of age, gender, and race.  Being anti-anything is so <em>yesterday</em>.  Love, love, love. And gratitude. World Peace!

The locker and wet area are cruisy, and the clientele is a mix of yuppies and and not-so-yuppies. They offer massage therapies only, no scrubs and things like that.</p>
<p>How about &#8220;extra&#8221;? Unlike in Sanctuario, the masseurs in this place do not voluntarily offer &#8220;extra.&#8221; This is true at least with the 2 masseurs I&#8217;ve tried. <em>(Atsaka good boy na po ako, hahaha!)</em> The private rooms themselves don&#8217;t lend well to such activities &#8212; the doors have glass panes so those passing through the hallway can actually see the goings on inside the massage rooms.</p>
<p>Maybe you have some juicier stories to share?</p>
<p>Photos of the place can be seen <a href="http://mrsmartinez.multiply.com/photos/album/122/New-York_Spa#">here</a>.</p>

<p><center>* * *</center></p>
<p>Hi Migs,</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a big fan of your site. I always read whatever you put there. I&#8217;m the guy that hates drama hehehehe. I&#8217;ve been wanting to write you for the longest time but can&#8217;t find good story to share until yesterday Nov 8, 2008.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m currently in Malaysia for a short visit. Yesterday I went to see the Petronas out of curiosity because I&#8217;ve been hearing a lot of good words from people who see it and also from the movies. <span id="more-6076"></span></p>
<p>I arrived there around 4PM. I took their MRT system and alighted at KLCC station which is just below the PETRONAS. I passed by SURIA KLCC mall home of branded clothing lines. Im not really sure where Im going that time so I just followed the Mall and voila I ended up at the side of Petronas.</p>
<p>Petronas is all metal! hehehehe nothing really fancy except that it is really Huge. I took pictures and tried to find a good spot to capture the beauty of the building. There were loads of tourist there and some were really in an awkward position just to get a good picture. One guy caught my attention. He&#8217;s really good looking and he&#8217;s really the type of guy that I want to flirt with. I&#8217;m more into English guys cause i find them really really cute and flirty..hehehehehehe.  Anyways, I was there for almost 10mins and didnt have yet a good shot. Then this really good looking guy came and seat near where im taking pictures of the building. Nung una patay malisya kunwari, then somebody approached me to take their pictures. which I obliged because Im a firm believer of Karma&#8230;plus I think its a good &#8220;catch phrase to use&#8221; hehehehe.. So after I finished taking pictures of the couple, langya ginawa talaga akong photographer. I was like taking their pictures at all angles of the building but then again I didnt complain because somehow &#8220;Alam ko may mangyayaring maganda&#8221;. Then I went back to the same place where the really good looking guy was still seated. So I seated near him and started to like find some angles of my shot. Nung una hesistant ako to ask him kasi alam mo na baka magalit or something but because I really really wanted to start a conversation I asked him &#8220;Is it alright if you take my pictures then I&#8217;ll take your pictures?&#8221; with my British accent hehehehe. Pandaya lang yun para kunwari magaling mag-English. He immediately said yes. Then we took turns to take our pictures. We took 2 each. Then we returned to seat again.</p>
<p>And then we started talking. He&#8217;s a British-Canadian guy. He&#8217;s just in Malaysia for transit and just came from Bali where he did lots and lots of surfing. We talked about a lots of stuff from Football to Geography to Filipina women.  We&#8217;ve been talking like for 45mins already when he said that he needed to go because he still needs to catch &#8220;Quantum of Solace&#8221; then he asked me if I wanted to come. Since I didn&#8217;t really have any plans after my  Petronas I said yes. We walked for almost 20mins just to reach the cinema,since pareho kaming NEWBIE sa Malaysia.  Then we caught the 530pm screening. The movie ended up like 730pm. I&#8217;m really enjoying his company so after the movie I didn&#8217;t really want to go home. He asked me again if I wanted to join him to go bar hopping. He said may nakita syang magandang lugar by searching sa internet na malapit sa area where he is staying. (Hindi sya marunong mag tagalog ha..hehehe). So I agreed that I can stay until 1030 because the last train going back to where im staying is 11PM. We proceeded then to his hotel to change, kc naka-shorts and t-shirt lang siya.  I politely said that Ill just wait downstairs, kc baka kung ano pa isipin. hehehehehe&#8230;</p>
<p>After 5 mins he came down looking even more gorgeous and smells very nice too.Pumunta n kami sa place and there we learn what the place is famous for : MASSAGE PARLOR&#8230; we were like laughing the whole time because the whole place were loaded with different kinds of SPA. So naglakad pa kami until we reached the next street AYUN! mga bars na talaga. We drink and dine at PLANET HOLLYWOOD and have like a Barrell of Beer, Pizza and chicken for the two of us. We really had good fun while eating , drinking and watching FOOTBALL match. Again, the conversation was really really nice. I learned that he&#8217;s NUCLEAR PHYSICIST! wtf!????? From his looks I was really caught unaware because he&#8217;s really gorgeous and model looking. We finished around 11PM then we decided that I should stay na lang sa room nya since I already missed the last trip. So itinuloy na lang namin yung bar hopping. Lipat lipat kami ng bar and lahat may pint ng beer.</p>
<p>Around 2PM we decided to call it quits kc lakas na ng tama niya. Sobrang dami kasi ng nainom na niya. Upon reaching the room, he asked me kung gusto ko raw &#8220;Gay Position&#8221; kami sa pagtulog. Di ko alam isasagot ko I just said &#8220;You are scaring me now&#8221;. To be honest Migs first time kong ginawa ito. I&#8217;ve never done this in my entire life pero because I really enjoyed his company plus lahat ng fantasies ko sa isang guy nasa kanya : English, former Army, Intelligent and most of all Good looking I did it. &#8220;I chose the GUY POSITION&#8221;. So we ended up sleeping in one bed. He slept topless at lalo akong humanga! Washboard ABS! pero I controlled myself. Talagang nag-isip ako if I want to do it or not. He was there lying half naked drunk&#8230;..I can&#8217;t sleep..Ano ba dapat kong gawin? Like I said this is all new to me. Akala ko ganun lang kadali yun based sa lahat ng mga nababasa ko at napapanud. but I decided to choose na walang mangyari. I know we have something special pero ayaw kong masira&#8230;..Paggising ko may halong sisi&#8230;kc all night I waited for him to make the first move&#8230;I think he also waited for me to make the first move&#8230;pero ayaw ko talagang masira kung anong meron na kami.</p>
<p>Lumipad na sya today papuntang Australia kasi may job interview pa siya&#8230;.and I stayed here in Malaysia&#8230;.medyo nalulungkot pero umaasa na magkita kami ulit&#8230;hehehehe Hindi naman drama medyo may halong pagsisi lang..but i know we started something special&#8230;.</p>
<p>Tapos i heard the song Love Comes from the Most Unexpected Places&#8230;sabi tama nga no.. I wasn&#8217;t really looking for anything when I went to Petronas but I ended up having a good memory that I will remember for the rest of my life. Alam ko hindi pa tapos ang aming story&#8230;.</p>

<p>Hi Migs,</p>
<p>We saw again each other last monday Nov 17. We stayed again in the same hotel shared the bills. We went out again and had a really really wonderful night together. It was one of the happiest moments of my life for the longest time. I thought it would never end.</p>
<p>Then when we were about to sleep I asked a silly question &#8220;I said, hey man can i Hug you?&#8221; he said &#8220;No&#8221; very loud. I said &#8220;Ok sorry&#8221;.  Then few minutes later i heard him say &#8220;Hey man yes you can hug me now.&#8221; I was sooooooooooooooo happy. I was hugging him for 10mins when he said something. I said no. He said If i want to do it we can&#8230;&#8230;..i was preparing for a week for the moment to come&#8230;but when it was there&#8230;i was confused&#8230;&#8230;I didnt want sex&#8230; I want a relationship..which is so silly of me&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p>He&#8217;s now in Thailand enjoying the last part of his vacation. He&#8217;ll stay there for a month. I&#8217;m planning to go to Thailand again to see him and see where it goes. I really really liked him so much. We exchanged personal things and im becoming more and more &#8220;Drama Queen&#8221; which I really really hate.. You know smelling his shirt..Memories of our last night together still haunts&#8230;.hahahahahaha.</p>
<p>But then again, I never expected something like this will happen ..I always said he&#8217;s just the icing on the cake, i enjoyed the cake so much. Hey Ho! Life is beautiful.</p>
<p>Thanks Migs and more power. Enjoy your holiday.</p>
<p>Cheers<br />
ILoveAlec<br />

Chris is also the screenplay writer of Bridal Shower, Bikini Open, Sukob, and Caregiver. He was also the playwright of the fabulous musical play &#8220;Zsazsa Zaturnnah.&#8221;</p>
<p>The movie, Cinemalaya 2008&#8217;s most-awarded entry and rated &#8220;A&#8221; by the Cinema Evaluation Board, talks about the unfabulous topic of death, and an OC woman&#8217;s (Mylene Dizon) 100 raging things to do before kicking the bucket. The fabcast mostly talks about Chris&#8217;s experience in making movies (both writing and directing), in the indie scene and mainstream.</p>
<p>So I thought you guys would like a feature on an icon of success for us PLUs &#8212; here you go then, <em>listen and learn, mga &#8216;teh!</em> <span id="more-6024"></span></p>

<p>100 chronicles the last three months of a cancer stricken woman who has a list of things to do before she dies. Her list of tasks, mostly closures and practical undertakings, expands to the worldly and the spiritual as people close to her share her last days. The film examines the betrayal of the body, celebrates the senses and contemplates the end of life and how to live it. A light-hearted, briskly paced, youthful take on a classic subject, 100 stars today’s most exciting performers &#8212; Mylene Dizon, Eugene Domingo, Tessie Tomas, TJ Trinidad, Ryan Eigenmann, Simon Ibarra and others. It is written and directed by Chris Martinez under the creative supervision of Marlon Rivera.</p>
<p>&#8220;100&#8243; is going to have its commercial run in theaters starting Dec. 3. Watch tayo, go!</p>

I&#8217;m writing this post while waiting for my flight to Los Angeles, California.  I was a bit emotional leaving the house <em>kanina</em>, knowing I&#8217;ll miss my partner during the 3 weeks that I will be away. <em>Haaayyy&#8230;</em> and so just as I finished packing my stuff this afternoon, I went bloghopping. I found  a treasure of a song, just right for the moment &#8212; it&#8217;s Kirsten Dunst singing <strong>Dream of Me</strong>. Beautiful song! I dedicate this to my partner, Marco. Why am I writing this very personal post? Well, I figured it&#8217;s just right for me to declare my love to the person who I have been with for the past 6 months &#8212; too bad I&#8217;ll be away when we celebrate our 6th monthsary. <em>Mahal</em>, in front of the 40,000+ readers of my blog, here&#8217;s the song &#8220;Dream of Me,&#8221; and I dedicate it to you. Advanced happy monthsary! <span id="more-6007"></span></p>

<h3>Dream of Me</h3>
<p><em>Kirsten Dunst</em></p>
<p>Let me sleep<br />
For when I sleep I dream that you are here<br />
You&#8217;re mine<br />
And all my fears are left behind</p>
<p>I float<br />
On air<br />
The nightingale sings gentle lullabies<br />
So let me close my eyes</p>
<p>And sleep<br />
Perchance, to dream<br />
So I can see the face I long to touch<br />
To kiss<br />
But only dreams can bring me this</p>
<p>So let<br />
The moon<br />
Shine<br />
Softly on the boy I long to see<br />
And maybe when he dreams<br />
He&#8217;ll dream of me</p>
<p>I hide beneath the clouds<br />
And whisper to the evening stars<br />
They tell me love is just a dream away<br />
A dream away. . . . dream away . . . dream away<br />
A drem away</p>
<p>So let<br />
The moon<br />
Shine softly on the boy I long to see<br />
And maybe when he dreams<br />
He&#8217;ll dream of me</p>
<p>Ohhh&#8230;dream of me </p>

He was with Paulo, his beloved partner (also of <a href="http://manilagayguy.net/2008/06/17/closet-badet-the-podcast/">Closet Badets</a>). We were waiting for Marco (the third guy who completes the triumvirate of the Closet Badets) who was then coming from a nearby school.  To while away the time, I was teasing him about his almost magical prowess to hook up whenever he wanted, that was when he was still unattached. So the idea of a quickie interview came up &#8212; maybe I&#8217;d let Dencio give us some basic instructions on how to get laid in oh-so-gay Manila. Listen and learn.<br />

<blockquote><p>If the Western has the Wild West with its cowboys, the Macho Dancer Movie nestles within the dark walls of the Gay Bar with its cast of gyrating, undressing male performers. Macho dancers are not to be confused with the callboy/common prostitute or the torero/live sex performer, although they can be those too. The Macho Dancer&#8217;s weapon is his particular brand of striptease. And just as the Western is American and the Samurai film Japanese, the Macho Dancer Movie is quintessentially Filipino. Is there any country other than the Philippines that can fill a top ten list of macho dancer movies with a few extra to spare? In these films, the plight of a people are played out via intermittent seductive numbers, like a musical, but hotter, where the thongs usually come off. Herewith, the zarzuelas of our time.</p></blockquote>

<p><center>* * *</center> </p>
<p>It was the 30th day of my birthday month, though still in the middle of the week, the following day was the end of Ramadan and thus was declared a holiday. I got nothing to do that payday afternoon and so I decided to just hang around. Walking along Timog / Tomas Morato area with no one and with literally nothing to do, I decided to go to one of my favorite spa places and pamper myself with an hour and a half long massage. <span id="more-5515"></span></p>
<p>So I went inside, had a short talk with the receptionist. I asked her if there were not too many people inside, and was delighted to hear her say &#8220;di naman matao sir, tama lang.&#8221; at least I&#8217;m not alone, and neither is it too crowded…</p>
<p>Well I went in, and saw a bunch of decent looking blokes (Though it pissed me that a number of them are drooling over those who just came in, and even went to as far as following you to the shower. But nevertheless it was an okay crowd.)</p>
<p>Just as any ordinary spa guy would do, I took off my clothes placed the towel around my waist and went straight to the shower area. There were a few gays staring but I couldn&#8217;t care less. Had a nice warm shower facing the wall / dividers; I was indeed having a nice time. After that, I went in the dry sauna area. After a few minutes I decided to give the massage a &#8220;go&#8221;. None of my favorite masseurs were available at the time, but then the newbie (at least for me) didn&#8217;t fail me. He has a good warm pair of hands, and it was a definite relief from all the stress I had from work this past week.</p>
<p>After the massage, I decided to take a shower again to wash off the oil. After that, I was planning to leave the place for coffee, but then, when I checked my phone, it was then too early. So I stayed… went back to the shower area, then to the sauna room. On my way to the sauna, I saw a few guys on the Jacuzzi but did not pay much attention. I went inside and alienated myself from the rest of the group by wearing a silly slightly frowning face. It was as if I had a &#8220;F*** OFF&#8221; sign tattooed in my forehead. Nobody dared talk to me, and so I was relieved.</p>
<p>Fifteen to thirty minutes have passed and so I decided to shower off the sweat… This is when I saw &#8220;him&#8221; in the Jacuzzi. It was a familiar face, and so I thought. But then the &#8220;straight guy&#8221; ruled over me and didn&#8217;t give a damn. I went straight to the shower area, and, well&#8230; showered.</p>
<p>But after a while, this occurred to me, &#8220;he was the same guy from two Saturdays ago…&#8221; I had a silly sort of &#8220;attraction&#8221; with this almost bald guy, a slight scar on his cheek, with a decent built. And it was my second time seeing him in the same spa. Little did I care about the other guys, I just wanted to know for sure if he was that same guy I once saw and was attracted to… So I went in the tub with him and seated at the far end of the corner. I was trying to glance at him every once in a while to validate if it was really him, so by then, I was sure he was. I&#8217;m sure he was also glancing back, but then we wouldn&#8217;t let each other catch that we were&#8230;</p>
<p>And so it went on, we were taking a quick look at each other if chance permits. I went in the sauna, after a while he was there too. When I shower, he&#8217;s there at times… but nothing really happened besides that.</p>
<p>After a few while, I noticed that the crowd was getting a bit thick, and so I decided to leave. I went out of the wet area to change clothes. He followed… sat at one corner of the waiting lounge, got his phone as if sending a text message. It&#8217;s as if he was saying &#8220;hey, can I get your number?&#8221; I didn&#8217;t know what to do&#8230; none of this sort has happened to me yet. And so I did not change at once… and lingered for quite a bit. Teasingly, I put on only my boxer briefs with a towel almost wrapped around my shoulder, went in front of the mirror and put gel on my hair. I thought&#8230; &#8220;hey, I&#8217;m sending all the right signals, when will you make a move?&#8221; after quite a while, there were already  number of guys staring at me, so I felt a bit conscious&#8230; so I went on putting on my pants and shirt and prepared to leave. I was in front of my locker (it was 222) when he sat beside me. I thought he was finally making a move, but then again, I assumed too much. He was there because his locker was just right next to me, his was 223.</p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t know what got into me, but I could have sworn, I wanted so much to get his number, but then I can&#8217;t just simply ask. He was still there lingering, and so am I, as if we were waiting for each other to step forward. So I did… I took a piece of paper, wrote down my first name and my number, and thought that it would be simpler if I just handed it to him. But then, I can&#8217;t. So I took my chances, and just left the paper inside my locker beside his. But I made sure that he knew that I left something there.</p>
<p>I went on my way hoping he would indeed get in touch. There was a coffee shop at the same building, I stayed there and met up with my boss, she also is a good friend of mine… and she had something bothering her that night… so we decided to talk it over a cup of coffee. While we were chatting, I received a text message &#8220;****?&#8221; – (my first name, sorry, I refuse to divulge that info) it was from an unfamiliar number. So I replied: &#8220;yes? I&#8217;m sorry but may I know who this is?&#8221; he replied &#8220;Why did you leave early?&#8221; I texted back &#8220;are you 223? I met up with a friend down here at GJ…&#8221; To cut it short, the conversation went on… it was brief and concise… &#8220;parang nagpapakiramdaman…&#8221; so to say. I learned from that short exchange that he is a senior student from one of the top university, and I&#8217;m 1 or 2 years older… just the same, he knew that I was a marketing guy at some establishment near the place… It was somewhat a relief that he made contact.</p>
<p>An hour have probably passed, my boss and I were at the height of her story… when I noticed &#8220;him&#8221; walking out of the building… he saw me too… it was a cold stare that we gave each other. He walked towards my direction, passed by our side, and went down the stairs behind me. After a while, I texted him again, &#8220;ei, you on your way home?&#8221; &#8220;yep, am a bit sleepy already… why?&#8221; he replied. I said. &#8220;wala, just thought you might want to hang out still, but then, sige, go ahead sleepyhead!&#8221; and the conversation went on again until the time I got home and was about to sleep… well, we talked about basic things, like my girlfriend, my job, his school, his likes… sort of stuff like that. But believe you me, it was a very few exchange of text messages… and I mean literally few. When it got a bit intimate, he asked &#8220;Hey, just wanted to ask, are you gay, bisexual or something, you know?&#8221; then I replied, &#8220;that… I&#8217;m not particularly sure of… I have a gf, but to be honest, I enjoy &#8216;it&#8217; with men. No labels. Ikaw?&#8221; – then I got cold silence as a reply.</p>
<p>That was the last text I got from him. That night, and the following day… nothing.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know if I scared him away… or had I been too straight forward, or too intrusive. I really don&#8217;t know. So I had to let it pass… so much for my first actual attempt to get to know a complete stranger, with him knowing what I actually am.</p>

<p>Dear <strong>Migs</strong>,</p>
<p>Sorry for having to tell you this long of a story… just wanted to tell you exactly what happened… in detail. You probably are the only person who might actually understand and be able to give me a straight forward comment. Tell me pls., what happened there? Am I just being extra sensitive about the whole thing? Should I act on it?</p>
<p>This, I&#8217;m sure of; I didn&#8217;t do that just so to hook up or anything. It was an authentic effort to make friends with someone interesting. After all, he might be the only person who actually knows who I am, and knows about the whole &#8220;no labels&#8221; thing. Is that wrong?</p>
<p>I know you and your readers are way too tired of these kinds of stories, so if you won&#8217;t publish it or something, it would absolutely be fine. Just hoping you&#8217;ll give me sound advices on what to do. You may send it through this e-mail if you opt to J thanks so much migs. You&#8217;ve always been a big help.</p>
