Revisiting Gaydar

Seven years ago, when I was still living in Hong Kong, one of the more popular gay dating websites then was Gaydar.  So anyway, I was pretty active there till 2008 when I returned to Manila to another completely different Internet dating landscape.  That meant my Gaydar profile went on hibernation for sometime, except for for use in those intermittent short trips abroad.

Anyhow, I decided to revisit the site last night and voila, my profile was still there, and it had a few messages!  And the guys looked cool too!  Anyway, I updated some of the stuff there including the picture and most likely I'll be visiting the site from time to time when I get the itch to go dating!  The site layout has changed, once again, but it's now quicker to load pictures!  I don't think Gaydar is that popular in the Philippines but it's a good way to meet tourists passing by the Philippines for vacation.

Some courts are ruling ‘gay’ is not slanderous

Well, at least now, this is a step towards the right direction.  At least it teaches the younger gay men and women that there is nothing wrong with them.  One step at a time!  Of course, here in the Philippines, being gay is already acceptable but not yet in the more business-like sectors of our society.

My Third HIV Test

Nothing is more unnerving for any gay man than to wait for the results of his HIV test.  I underwent my third HIV test in my whole life today, since it's the new year and I wanted a clean bill of health.  My first two tests done in 2006 and 2008 were done in the private clinic of my doctor friend but since he is based in Europe nowadays, I had to search for an alternative place.

I discovered that our local government here in the Philippines has Social Hygiene clinics which administer these tests!  They also do STD tests for syphilis and gonorrhea.  And it's for free! Imagine that!

Anyhow, I went to their Social Hygiene clinic in front of Sandiganbayan in Fairview.  It's beside that huge tricycle parking area.  There is available parking space beside the clinic, so you can bring your car.

Once inside the clinic, they will get your details.  Be prepared to tell the truth since they will ask for your sexual history.  Then they will do some counseling re AIDS and STD.  After that, they will get a swab of your penis excretion and your tongue to check if it's disease-free.  Don't be ashamed.  Better to know if you're carrying something dreadful.  The staff is professional in this matter.

Finally, they will extract a little blood from you to check for HIV and other STDs.  The HIV result will come after 10 minutes.  The STDs will be identified after a week.  Again, these tests are for FREE!

Well, I tested negative for HIV, so I was really relieved.  I am still awaiting the results for the other STDs.

Senator Sotto has a 200 million peso pork barrel and he cannot hire a decent writer for his speeches??!! I was a ghost writer for some politicians 15 years ago during my 'raket' days so I know what goes on in this type of work, so I was really shocked to know na in our present Senate, ganito na pala kababa ang writing standards nila. And lawyers na yan sila ha! Nakakahiya, who hired these people? 

Sana ako na lang hinire ni Sen. Sotto hehe. I charge a bit higher now but nothing that could dent his multimillion peso pork barrel! E kahit pro-RH bill ako, I could still write him a good anti-RH bill speech - trabaho lang, walang personalan! Tuloy, clown na siya sa former work niya, clown na rin ang tingin ng mundo sa kanya! And now, people associate Sotto with bobo, literally......pati speech kinokopya lang e...paiyak iyak pa....actor talaga......
