05.35 pm :: You put the 'gay' in investigation
|
I was innocently browsing thru an album posted by Atty. Bofish when ding ding ding!, may nakita akong betable na boy guy. Sabi ng self ko sa self ko (in a rare conversation), "I'll have two of those, please. With extra gravy. Thank you!"  | And! to express my delight at the discovery na aba, meron pa palang cute sa mundo!, I immediately made like to his photo. |
Pero agad ding na-override ang feelings na yon with a mini-panic/ insecurity dahil kung may friend si Bo na ganon ang leveling, bakit di pa nya sakin pinapakilala ever ever ever! Or na-use manlang, in a sentence. Di naman likas kay Bo na maging withholding. Hobby nya nga ang gumawa at sumuporta ng labteams eh! So I knew something was off.
Upon further investigation (meaning mga lima't kalahating clicks), nahagip ko din. Si hijo ay verde ang bloodclot. Cute, pero verde still. Now, I take great pride in my ability to weed out the straighties from the gaydies. Minsa'y pinarangalan pa ako ni Yves on this well-honed skill--no, super power--by saying na ako lang daw ang kilala nyang di pa nati-trick ng isang paminta. So yes, akin na ang tiarang yon.
Kaya sadyang kinabahan ako nang di ko na-sense at first whiff na blurdet pala si friend-of-Bo. Paranoid lang na humihina na ang gaydar ko with time, or baka sa sobrang exposure ko sa mga badeys eh na-desensitize na ako! Oh noes!
Buti nalang may clarification na naganap. Closeta pa pala si friend. As in naipit pa ang kapa na red sa tokador! Kaya pala di kagad nag-jump sakin na TeamRustom sya. As eeeeeeeen, I was looking at his photos at parang Mona Lisa's smile ang kanyang kabadingan. Apparent pero somehow naka-hide option! Pinahirapan nya ako dun ha!
Sayang. Highly marketable pa naman si friend.

Minsan napag-usapan namin ni JD na mag business venture. Magpu-put up kami ng sister website to PG4M (PinoyGuys4Men, "your online tambayan" <-I swear yan ang tagline nila!) kung saan tutulungan namin ang young badings na mag-out. Or even old badings, dahil marami-rami pa nyan, YKWYA.
Tatawagin namin itong GoGayUrself, at ako ang webmistress -slash- queenmother nito. Dahil apparently I "bring out the gay in people" (Ylla, 2009).
( Exhibit A: Yves )
