Gay Marriage Now

I envy the First World Countries – they truly evolved into society where every citizen is given the right to be happy. They came to a point that gay marriage and adoption (by gay parents) are already allowed. All studies regarding the high standards of living showed that these countries that allowed gay marriages (and adoption) or even Civil Union/Partnership scored very high in these studies.

I just can’t help but hope, that the Philippines could at least come up with a Civil Partnership Law that will allow gay couples to enjoy the equal benefits of the law – for taxation purposes, health insurance, healthcare, etc. I’m just hoping that this will happen in the next 50 years.

Let’s be wise – let’s vote for candidates that are at least tolerant or neutral towards gay people.

Stylish Gay Guys for Bench’s B/PROUD Campaign

Bench, one of the country’s leading fashion company, recently launched it’s B/PROUD Campaign. According to the Bench website, “The B/PROUD campaign was born from this need to overpower narrow-mindedness and empower the fearful and restrained.”

The website also encourages its visitors to “Support the campaign and tell us what being gay means to you today. Our hashtag: #100HappyGays.”

For me, being gay means being free from the norm and being bold enough to swim opposite the current.
