No DL Brothers Here!

Like most places in the world, there are a lot of homosexuals here. A lot!!! Doesn't matter much to me as long as they don't bother my husband. However, there is a little someone that works a kiosk in the mall who likes to make googly eyes at Dwayne. Needless to say, he is not impressed or flattered or entertained by that at all.

But, one thing that is not common here is the down low concept. The gay men here are gay and proud of it. You don't really find many manly looking men with a gay guy either. You see two feminine dudes together. They don't have the problem of women married to men who are sleeping with other men. Why? Because being gay is not stigmatized here. People won't look down on you or ostracize you because of it.

So, you see a lot of men with gorgeous hair, flawlessly made up skin, perfectly fit bodies proudly walking around. Sometimes, you can't tell if they are a man because they're just so....well....beautiful.

I rather prefer it this way. At least women don't have to wonder if the man they're interested in likes women. You can tell by looking at them. The stigma is in men who look like men but are gay. That's uncommon and seriously looked down upon.

Here's an example of an openly gay men. Now, he is not cute at all so don't expect that. He was just interesting. I took my kids to see the Alvin and the Chipmunks show and he sat next to us. He kept fixing his makeup throughout the show. This picture is of him in line waiting to take a pic with the cast. No, he didn't have any kids with him. And, he was dancing along and everything. Enjoying himself immensely with no shame.




Of course I had to include a picture of my kids too. This is them with the nanny and cast of the show.

Motherhood

Yesterday, I had something to do so the kids went to their old sitter's house for a few hours. We got home later than intended so I knew I would be rushing to prepare dinner, get them bathed, and settled for the night. Here's what really happened. As soon as we entered the house, Brayden started running around saying "Mommy, I have to pee". So we rush into the bathroom and as soon as his pants are unbuttoned, he starts peeing on himself. I clean him up and decide they can play in the tub while I start preparing dinner. As soon as we get to the kitchen, Danica throws up all over me, herself, and the floor. So, I take her to our bathroom and bathe her. Before I can get her pj's buttoned up, Brayden starts screaming "I have to pee!" Because he just went all over the bathroom floor, I'm a little perplexed. I run to their bathroom anyway only to find out he didn't have to pee, he had to poop and had already dropped two bombs in the bathtub where his s

Baby Making (Or Not)

So, as I've said before, I'm getting my tubes tied this year. I have had so many people tell me they don't agree with this. I've been told that I should let God decide how many children we have or ask him to close my womb. I should wait and see if I want more children in the future. It's too permanent. What if something happens to my children and I decide I want more later. I honestly didn't expect to run in to so much opposition. First of all, it's my body and my decision. Secondly, I am absolutely sure that I don't want more children. And lastly, it really is my decision. The funny thing is that my friend who has 5 children has received a lot of criticism for the size of her family and was told repeatedly that she should've gotten her tubes tied. Now, there are other circumstances in that particular family that would warrant such remarks. But my point is that people are never satisfied. If we continued to have children, I'm sure someone would s

Christmas in September?

Apparently, living in Manila is going to provide plenty of material for me to write about. Here goes: We have been provided several books to help us adapt to life in the Philippines. Something we read was very beneficial for us yesterday. We went to SM which is a department store, furniture store, grocery store, and several restaurants all in one. Danae had to use the bathroom and guess what? There was no toilet tissue. No, they didn't run out. They don't put tissue in the bathrooms at all. No empty tissue holder or anything. Because I read about that, I had a little tissue stowed in my bag to use. In the grocery store, the most overwhelming shock was the stench. The entire back of the store is basically a butcher shop. Surprisingly, there were no flies or anything. But, the smell was gross. Danae held her nose while we looked around in there. I wasn't bold enough to purchase any meat yet. One day, maybe. Or, we'll just become vegetarians while we're here. In the cl
