Minding your own p's and q's!


I was asked about what topic I hated most to discuss specially in my other blog, and I answered...everything about sexuality. And almost everyone agreed specially again that that group is specifically for mom bloggers like me. That's why, this blog was born. I just want to tackle something in which my ideas will flow on smoothly without being told of some certain boundaries and blah blah blah's. I love the third sex, be it the lesbians or the gays...whom I find it so easy to be with. But to flaunt it on air where children could get a glimpse or hear whatever they would gonna say about their thing, I don't exactly like it that way. For me, they might imbibe whatever from what they would hear. They don't need to blurt out all the truth or just throw away all [discretion] to the winds. We all have our own judgment, freedom, rights, discrimination, choices, and pleasure or options but sometimes we need to be a little discreet naman paminsan minsan lalo na't very sensitive ang topic di ba? They say silence means YES. But silence sometimes is also synonymous to NO. If we do not say yes, it means NO. When some people remained tightlipped about BeBe Gandanghari's coming out, it means that like me, I respected his choice, it's his call. We have to respect that. But like Vice Ganda have had once said on TV, maraming gays ang hindi yun minaganda. Simply coming out is just okey. Pero what they didn't like daw ay yung changing his name and crossdressing (?)...and for me, as parent I don't want some kids to imitate what they are seeing on TV. I just can't imagine how CV felt and feels at the moment whenever she would see Rustom cross-dressed with long curly lashes and flowing hair. I noticed na may resemblance nga silang mag-ex. And also as parent, I don't condemn gays, pero mas gusto ko namang straight ang anak kong lalaki. But if ever, maging ganun man, anak ko pa rin siya. And I will always be a mother. So ang bottom line is, don't flaunt it na lang. It is still not so 100% accepted in our norms. So let's just respect each other na lang...parang meeting halfway...wag sosobra.
