Pulang Laso Aftermath

Kasama ang mga kaibigan, pinag-usapan namin ang nakaraang episode ng MMK.

"Pag AIDS, kelangan bakla dapat? That is so stereotypical."

"Pag bakla AIDS na agad? Di pa pedeng tulo muna?"

"Or di ba pedeng lagnat muna o sipon?!"

Siyempre katuwaan lang naman yun. Alam naman naming ito ay isang napakahalagang paksang talakayin at pag-usapan.

"Pero pano ba talaga naghahawahan?"

"Alam ko tatlo lang yan: dugo, karayom (galing sa may AIDS), at pagpasa ng ina sa anak."

"Ang alam ko any body fluids e. Mapa-tamod at laway."

"Pano naghahawahan pag sa lalake at babae. Di ba tamod naman yun."

Lumabas tuloy ang katotohanang kakaunti lang ang alam namin tungkol sa HIV.

"Wag kang mag-alala. 1% lang naman ang chance mong mahawa sa unprotected sex e."

"Yun nga e, dapat di ka umaasa dun sa 1% na yun e."

At least sa huli, tama naman ang nasabi namin.

  2. dugo, karayom (galing sa may AIDS), at pagpasa ng ina sa anak
    - dugo yes, karayom no not sa needle itself but kung may blood sa needle. Hypodermic needle to be exact. pagpasa ng ina sa anak no ang alam ko kasi namamatay yung cells ng virus pag nasa baby parang may anti ek ek so ang nangyayari hindi ata napapasa sa baby. not sure though yun lang tanda ko sa lessons namin noon

    Ang alam ko any body fluids e. Mapa-tamod at laway

    -seminal fluids yes laway no. kelangan mo ng galong galong laway bago ka mahawa. hindi rin sa pawis at hindi rin sa lamok na pag kinagat ng lamok yung taong may virus tapos kinagat ka magkakaron ka din thats not true.

    Pano naghahawahan pag sa lalake at babae. Di ba tamod naman yun.
    - remember meron ding vaginal fluids ang babae.

    Also.. AIDS is different from HIV.

    AIDS ay ang pagbaba ng CD4 cells nila associated with HIV.

    HIV is a disease. so AIDS is a phase or parang stage (but not all the time kasi you can have HIV but not AIDS) and HIV is having the disease or virus.

    parang naguluhan ako.. haha!

  3. it can pass pala if a pregnant women is infected with HIV thru breastfeeding, pregnancy, labor and delivery but it could also be prevented via modern drugs para sa baby

  4. @cyron: oo nga. pero sa ngayon, pag-iingat lang ang kaya nating gawin.

    @shenanigans: thanks. hinanap ko rin talaga siya sa net tuloy. tama naman, 3 general ways of transmission: body fluids, needles, mother-to-child.

Before Coming Out

Lately, I've been thinking of coming out. It's like I want to free of myself of the burden of keeping my identity a secret. But before I come out, I just have some personal conditions I need to accomplish first. I won't be doing these things just to earn people's approval on my lifestyle but more for me being comfortable in the path I've chosen to live.

The One

Feeling loved and inspired, I ask my friends, who are in long-term, serious relationships, how and when they realized that their partners were the ones. Here are their answers: 1) "You don't know. You feel . Nagkakasundo kami palagi. And we have similar tastes." 2) " I just felt it . Despite everything that happened to us, we still chose each other . I just knew it. Tapos nagising na lang din ako isang araw na nung nakita ko siya pagkagising ko na katabi ko siya eh iba na yung feeling ko." 3) "Pasok siya sa criteria ko na kailangan lagi ako chinachat. Kaya nga until now lagi pa rin kami magkachat kahit nakatira na kami sa iisang bahay. Pinakaimportante dapat damang dama mo na gustong gusto ka niya.: 4) " Hindi niya ako iniwanan in my lowest point . He's one of the people na napaka-pure ng intention. Love personified." 5) " I just knew somehow .Yung di ako mahihiya ipakilala sa mga tao. Yung di na ako kailangan magtago." 6) "Sig...

Was there ever a time in your life when you first heard a song and felt that the song was written for you? That it might be your theme song for a certain moment or chapter in your life? Parang kiling me softly with his song lang ang peg.
