Gays deserves respect too

“People don’t have the right to judge them because of their being, they are also human being and deserves the respect of every people, which is actually right.” 

Probably nowadays, people are starting to understand the gay people. Probably because members of the third sex is now part of the updated world – before there were only men and women. Let’s accept it! God created Adam and Eve – it only means man and woman. No gays or third sex at all. 

But for many years now, people are starting to feel the same with the gay people who always been discriminated because of the path they chose. I always remember what I learned about the gay people when DZMM anchor Jun Banaag of his radio program Dr. Love Radio Show talks about it. He doesn’t condemn them instead he always advice to the members of the third sex that if they are happy to it then let it be, all we are in this world is to be happy. People don’t have the right to judge them because of their being, they are also human being and deserves the respect of every people, which is actually right. 

For the gay people, they always fight for their freedom. As our constitution stated that no person shall be deprived of life and liberty. Every human being, including the gays, is entitled to have a space in the world. Discrimination shouldn’t be done to them. Though some gays, not all of course, have this kind of attitude who wants to attract people around him by wearing these odd costumes even if it’s unnecessary. Like for an instance, you need to wear proper clothes when you are in a school, even if it’s washday or you just feel not to wear uniform still you have to wear descent clothes not with that backless or having a hairdo that almost covered your face with a dangling accessories anywhere in the your body part. It must not be the situation because if that happens people will really react negatively and you will feel bad. Don’t blame them, blame yourself because if you are a descent person, people will like you instead. 

Now, let’s have a closer look to it. Gays are human beings too only that they have unique characteristics that only them possesses, they act like girls but they have the boy’s organ – the penis, should I say that? Yes unless they undergo operation like sex change. Still they are considered boys. No question to that! I’m not being rude to the gay people, I’m just citing the truth. 

Months ago, there was circulating news about putting up a separate comfort rooms for the gay people in Metro Manila. For some, they are into it while some opposes it. “I don’t think it’s necessary,” one commented. “Gays are free to choose the girl or boy comfort rooms after all.” But in Cebu, a city councilor proposed an ordinance to set comfort rooms exclusive for the gays or members of the LGBT (Lesbian, Gays, Bisexual, and Transgender) community. If the said ordinance be passed before the city council, all business establishments in Cebu are required to comply or else they’re business permits will be revoked. The problem here, come on let’s face it, some gay leaders always wanted to come up with their proposals be always prioritized which is not actually a need but caprices. They just wanted to justify everything they want.

One angle which is very important here is that gays excel in their fields. They are the most productive when it comes to employment. They are creative, flexible and most of all versatile. That’s how I sees gays who are successful in their chosen fields, decent gays only. For an instance, the most respected gay comedienne because of his witty jokes – Vice Ganda. The reason why people love the showtime judge because of his humorous appeal which in every joke that he cracks, all must really be laughing. Despite the tirades of some critics, he in return just comment back without hurting them. 

Recently, I watched a search, gay search actually. In what I’ve seen in the contestants are the determination and strength to win the title even if they are not that so confident when it comes to their looks. Even if they got nervous, pressured or even disappointed through the duration of the search, win or lose, what I observed, still they are the happiest person on Earth. That should be the case. The happiness they got from things that would make them happy is priceless. 

Nevertheless, we are in a world wherein people really search for their best happiness in life. Let’s not then deprive any person to life. Even if you are a boy, a girl, or a third sex member, we all have spaces in the universe. An old proverb that always remind us “Respect each and everyone.”
