Actually, we know. I know. Who doesn't know?
... and so are 3 of my close friends who are looking more like the Bachelors women would wanna date, having great personalities, career, cars and buffed bodies. But yes, they are gay and I'm in no position to judge them for their preference, ultimately because they are good human beings. Not much because of their sexuality but because they are nice and are friends with me. Much so that Adam Lambert is good for what he does, singing rock! Whether he's gay or not has no effect on his talent. So, that's not an issue even now that he openly admits on Rolling Stone mag.
Actually, I have NO clear position on the subject of gay lifestyles and rights. I am, (like most of the people I know around here) are torn between what is conceived moral from being open to the "happiness of others" and freedom to choose whomever they want to be in life, without restriction! Apparently, there is nothing that really stops them from being whoever they want here in my country. As some who are openly gay to their community and families dress up like women and takes up women roles. They walk and act freely looking how they want to look and it's OK, nobody here discriminates them ... err... a few may be like what happened to Rustom, a male celebrity who went away and came back as a woman, as BB. Gandanghari. She went to a bar and was refused entry because she was "cross-dressing" which the bar bans. (But you cannot really argue with house rules, can you?) There are a lot of other bars who can welcome her anyway and a lot have despised what they did to her. I too did not like what they did in all fairness of her coming to the bar in a collected and decent manner, as person, as a customer. BUT THEN again it all goes back to "morality" issues, to gay rights and feedom ... and the long list of issues arising from it. Nevertheless, they are treated here more fairly when it comes to expressionism and jobs, as I have visited other countries and have not seen as many guys dressed as girls (or were they just too pretty and womanlike that I can't tell them apart?! ^-^) That here, we consider them as the most creative and artistic people. That I again! for one, would only TRUST a gay stylist. (period.)
On the other hand, there are metrosexuals who, (like my friends) are not into womens clothes at all! But are actually in very sleek, classy mens outfit, worthy of James Bond appeal. I guess the show "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" had much to do with that look!That yeah, it leaves so many women heartbroken! But you know, they can be inspirations for men, to dress up smartly as they do and learn how to be well-groomed MEN with uncluttered apartment and with more than one pair of shoes! In fact, I don't mind that my man is a bit vain. That he has his own moisturizer and facial scrub. That he picks his own soap and shampoo. Well, there is nothing wrong if men could pick up a few tips on how to look good and take care of themselves from these guys...gays...guys...uhmm.gays.
The thing is:
Expressing who you are from within has no boundaries! For as long as you don't hurt anyone, you don't compromise your values and you don't do it without care. All our actions and thoughts accounts for who you are as a person to your family, friends and community.
It's still gonna be a long, long run. For as long as all the other forms of discrimination in the world are taken down, yours too wont be easy.
