Pride and Prejudice

AIDs and other like-wise diseases, need no introduction.

Still, many that have been grossly mud-slinged.

Over 2 decades on and still the perceptions and the stigma lingers.

Tied with prejudice. Tied with hatred.

There are many diseases in this world.
We all suffer from one or another ,time to time.

It's anyone's Disease.

AIDs and the likes are but some of countless.

Time to view it as such.

A cure is needed. A cure will come.

A cure for not just the disease but the social mindset as well.

Me thinks,

the reason for the discrimination is due to the stigma of opening up to the issue of Sex.

It is such a no-no word for so many cultures and religions in the world today.

Not necessariy the diseases themselves since STDs are but a possible but not guaranteed by-product.

Education and understanding is necessary.

Taboo, neither the people nor the disease. But the notion of society at large.

But more importantly, a climate of Prevention is the Greatest Love of All.

Q... Make love , Not War.

Power of the People :(

The ger-men says 'NO.' Resolutely.

The general public Opposes or is Neutral.

The general attitute? 'I Dounch Care.'

Live and Let Live.

(???)
So be it.

'Respect the Individual' is all this blog stands for. Peace out.

Closet Continuum

I have a friend who just 'came out' of the closet if you know what I mean....

And there's no discrimination from me but a ton of R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

B'cos it takes a lot. More than just being brave and having the will. It's about finding yourself. And it's the hardest thing in the world.



Actually, sexuality is not definite but a continuum.
The level of desire as opposed to disdain for the opposite sex varies from person to person (even depending on time and situation!) only serves to exemplify the notion that sexuality should not be an issue in any context.

It is all but a senseless hype meant to be insensitive; showing a lack in understanding and benevolence.

Listen out and nod away:

>Males crave physical gratification.

>Females crave emotional gratification.

What this means is that a really 'handsome gal or a really 'pretty boy' could still whisk a 'straight-as-an-arrow' proclaimer off his/her feet, as long as this person' gratification is met.

In fact, the gratification itself (physical/emotional or both) is a continuum in it self.

So, quit the labelling b'cos we're all humans.


'Needs' are governed by personal norms while 'wants' are governed by social norms (and stigmas) .

So the rule of thumb? Don't discriminate b'cos you'r likely not that 'straight' after all...

Intolerance breeds Discrimination.

Discrimination breeds Criminalisation.

Criminalisation breeds Discrimination.

Discrimination breeds Intolerance.

A vicious cycle.

Chicken first or Egg first?

Do all eggs give the same type of chicken?

Do all chickens want to lay eggs?

Normal folks who deserve better. Have you met them? Have you known them? Don't judge.

Morality is moral only when it is voluntary.

They didn't choose to be. They just are.

So quit being all righteous. Because, in another context, you broke the law before too.

Just like EVERYBODY ELSE.

Being SECURE of one's Metro.

I've had a couple (thank goodness not that many!) of mean people passing remarks like

" Has anyone ever mistaken you for being g@y? or " You
look really good for a guy. You must be g@y."

I mean, kudos to all those who 'are all out there and proud of it' ... but I'm just not. And shall not stand others who point fingers and act as if they know me and can size me up.

Neither do I tolerate the discrimination and scoff b'cos I personally know really nice and sweet people who are not straight, yes, but are 10X better individuals then those homophobists out there.

With regards to the 'look-ing good equals mailto:g@y remark stated at the start, I'm neither jaded nor narcissistic to masquerade around thinking myself as looking-good. I am a model and, thus, I get such compliments coming at me all the time so I'm not flighty about it nor do I necessarily wake up in the morning, looking in the mirror and go all " Hey, gorgeous..." (eww!).

Hell, I don't even like taking photographs. I' m the last person you'd expect to see pointing a camera phone at the mirror with me in front of it and clicking away. That's why you'd have to pay me for me to be shot at. Seriously. LOL.

I don't have image issues of course. Wouldn't go plastic surgeon-hunting the minute I can afford it, if you see my point. Neither do I go 'oh-perfect' on myself...

Anyway, back to the gist of the matter, my normal response to those who accuse guys who bother to look smart b'cos they are adamant about walking about campus in flip flops and shorts and hence bother to groom well (for me; both a personal upkeep and a job-necessity) as 'g@y' , EAT YOUR HEARTS OUT.

Eva heard of the term 'Metro-sexual'?

And even I don't put on make up ... (guys shouldn't on a daily basis... cos that's just naaaazzzzty!")

B'cos if stinking fellas like you out there who look 'THIS BAD (as you do)', you should HAVE BEEN EXTINCT.

I specifically remember the Neanderthals died out 5000 years ago.

And we happen to be called the 'HOMO' sapiens. What irony. LMAO ROTF.

So unless you're not one... and still have nothing nice to say... shut up.^^

Happy .... & Less-Happy

You know, there has been increasing hoopla over a small but (at least when compared to the size of the general populace) thriving 'Happy' communitee ... yeah you know wht I mean.

And I made some very interesting discoveries.

Just last night , I chain-clubbed two very popular clubbers'-haunts . First it was at Play . Then it was down to Ministry Of Sound.

At Play, when I was there to catch the musical musings of world-reknowned Grammy Award winning DJ/Remixer Hex Hector, I realised that these men ARE happy. Not in the pun-slanged way mind you...but they trully are ...festive. As awkward as I was being there.... I was seriously feeling light-hearted about the whole atmosphere at the same time. It all seemed... more relaxed...these people were there to have fun and, most importantly, no pretense. As though once the doors are shut behind them, the ruthless world outside is locked out and they are safe there. Totally palpable.

Then, it was down to MOS later in the night . All I saw there were ego-trips. Slut-girls and trannies (or trannys; sorry I'm just trying to make a point here and not trying to provoke or discriminate) trying to out-dress each other by wearing the least and see who had the hook-ups. Shufflers doing their best to out pace each other and to stand out from the crowd. Boyfriends fiercely defending their girlfriends like those girls grew up in boxes and knew nothing about being the wee-bit independent or capable enough to stand on their own. There were simplying more people checking each other out and standing around with drinks in hand doing little more than tapping their feet or bopping their heads. I enjoyed myself little there.

Another thing that stroke me most, was that, other than what's mentioned above,ultimately, the crowd in MOS seemed little different from those at Play. They could well have switched places or to see anyone of those clubbers in the context of their daily lives, and you wouldn't tell the difference.

Yeash, say what ever you like , who ever is reading this, but well, I do have one thing to say :

It was indeed an eye-opener for me. And it only serves to further reinforce my notion and stand that whether a person is straight or not should hardly be an issue in today's context.

Gone with the naysayers and haters out there... ponder this... " If straight people aren't necessarily good people (such as killers, robbers, murderers etc.) , then why should g*y people be seen as bad?"

There is just no basis for let-downs and put-downs.

Enlightened and reassured.

Because men were not created equal but should at least be treated as such. That's justice. That's dignity.
