Should “trans” and “queer” roles in cinema and TV be limited only to “trans” and “queer” actors?

The notion of actors only of a certain sexual orientation or who “identify” with a certain gender being qualified to play characters in cinema or TV that are of the same sexual orientation or gender identification is the subject of much debate. Actually, thinking again, for many in that community, the entitlement is practically a…

Leni Robredo’s preference for “local office” proves she is not a leader of NATIONS

Facebook news outage won’t affect people looking for REAL info

By now, most would be aware of the storm kicked up by Facebook’s botched attempt to face off with the Australian Government.

“Red tagging” is an intellectually-dishonest red herring communists use to mask their crimes

Shhhh…. Listen for a minute in silence. Do you hear that? That’s right. That’s the sound of Filipino “activists” still complaining about being “red tagged”. In fact, it’s the only argument they throw against efforts being mounted by the Philippine Government to eradicate the communist cancer from our society. But think about it for a…

The Philippines is right not to join international condemnation of the Myanmar coup d’etat

Leading the condemnation, after all, is none other than the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) which, need we remind ourselves, itself has been unfair in its treatment of the…

Saying “I need you” and “You complete me” to your partner does not convey “true love”

That day of “love” is coming up again and big words and even bigger promises will be exchanged by pairs of people once again over the proverbial candle-lit dinner or, for many, whilst in the throes. Perhaps it is time we revisit what it really means to love somebody in the romantic sense. Since most…
