Siguro, pag ganyan yun Barkada mo ng matagal, you'll just be more tolerant sa kanila, but Siyempre he'll not be the first one you'd call pag Meron lakad yun barkada, meron talagang magbabago eh

Does that mean we have nothing in common? We went through the same gruelling high school classes with the same teachers, went to the same prom, the same road trips, the same inuman nights, and the same experiences that we shared with the rest of the barkada (all of which are straight men and women btw).

An additional hobby in common for me and this friend of mine is badminton, so we often play on our free time and grab a quick meal after.

I don't think my relationship with him is any less deep than my relationship with any of my other kabarkadas who are straight, whether guy or girl.

That's the difference, you've known him since way back...you're more tolerant attitude toward him, you basically grew up together. It's like siblings, kahit na siga or basagulero kapatid mo and other people are afraid of him, you being a brother, hinde ka takot sa kanya.

What I'm trying to say is like colleague na bading, I don't see how me as hetero***ual can be buddy with him, when nakikilala mo na siya bakla na, eh Kasi naman yun hobby na badminton used to be for girls and bading Lang eh sake for oldies grin: kailan Lang naman nauso yan na exercise few years ago...

Let's talk about normal regular hobbies ng mga lalake, basketball, airsoft, cars and girls...yayain mo yun friend mong bading ewan ko Kung sasama siya.

I just don't see myself na magkaroon ng barkadang bakla ngayon, yes childhood barkada nagging bakla, welcome sa mga lakad and handaan ng mga barkada, but definitely will get roasted with all the jokes..and I'm sure he would never mind since matagal ng barkada. Eh king bagong barkada Lang na bading, sigurado hinde mo mabibiro ng todo.

Kalain mong si duncan.....bading.

Sabi nga e, dumarami sila, di naman sila nanganganak.

There is a possibility that the marime himself was ghey. In one of his fb pictures, his pose is a bit...."ghey".
He felt he had to kill the victim to prove to himself he is still a "man". I think most Filipinos do not understand American masculinity. IMO, American masculinity is more fragile that Filipino masculinity. American masculinity is almost defined by their "alpha-isms". If you're not alpha, you are beta or ghey. The Philippines is different. The embodiment of "proper masculinity" is be cut, be family oriented, have self control, be a gentleman, be hygienic.

That being said, I like to address the notion by some that "person of color" is a PC word. In fact, it isnt and never was. At best, it is considered antiquated. The PC term would be "minorities". Also, Black is more politically correct than "person of color". POC was used by racists in the past whereas black was used starting the civil rights movement. And the term ghey is actually a slang. I wonder if people here throwing out the term PC actually know what PC means?

There is also a possibility that this is a hate crime. Not necessarily towards gheys but towards sehks workers and people who do one night stands. Such crimes are not unheard of in the US or in the US military. Just look at the pattern of the craigslist killer (medical student). Before he killed the escort he contacted, he has been assaulting escorts or women who work in the sekhs industry. In Dongducheon in Korea in the late 90s or early 2000s sone US servicemen killed a female Korean prostitute.

It is also possible that it is about money. Ghey thought it was paid, marine thought it was free.

The word I gather is, the bar the marines went to was known to be a place to pick up ghey sehksworkers. Who looks for female sehksworkers in a ghey bar? Besides, it is no secret that the Philippines has lots of cross dressers and open gays, so I doubt it isnt in the marines' briefings

I said that. PC is Political Correctness. I stand corrected on the POC remark since I lived in the Philippines all my life. Thanks for clearing things up.

But I did give other PC terms that are correct such as Vertically challenged so I do know what it means.

I think you do not fully understand what "politically correct" actually means.

Vertically challenged at best is humor, not a PC term. PC term would be short in stature. UnPC terms would be manlet, munchkin, hobbit, short, not tall....

Just because it sounds "less crude" to your ears does not necessarily make it "politically correct". In fact, in the US, the term vertically challenged is a lot LESS PC than "short". "Vertically challenged" is not even used in the liberal academia or even lingo.

You need to research more on how these terms are used in English speaking countries especially that these terms are hardly used in the Philippines.

"Plus size" is not even really politically correct. The PC words for fat is "curvy" or voluptuous", "few extra pounds", BBW, "full figured". Plus size can be used as an insult.

To demonstrate, try saying "look at thty plus size lady" versus "look at that curvy/voluptuous" lady

**yebo** · October 19th, 2014 08:12 AM

Fnck that! Why can't people say what they want to say? Why is it that filipinos can say "ang taba mo na!" to a fellow filipino but need to say "you look voluptuous..." when talking to a non-filipino. Why can we not just say fat when we mean fat?
