- Gay celebrity stylist Ricky Reyes shared sentiments about SOGIE Bill.
- Ricky Reyes is not keen on supporting SOGIE bill.
Veteran celebrity stylist Ricky Reyes shared his stand on the burning issue of SOGIE Bill.
In an interview with some media people posted in Timmy Basil’s YouTube channel, the gay philanthropist said that gay will always be gay and asked them to stop aspiring to be someone else.
“Ang bakla ay bakla, gilingin mo man yan, ang labas nyan baklang hamburger,” he said in jest.
Reyes also said gays should stop acting like women in the streets because it demeans them.
“Ako nung this year lahat ng LGBT nilikom ko sila lahat. Sabi ko tigilan na yang kabaklaan, wag na kayong magbestida sa kalye kasi lalo tayong pagtatawanan ng tao. Dapat tumulong tayo sa kapwa para mahalin tayo ng mga tao,” he said.
He also added that only a gay can really understand another gay.
“Ang lagi kong sinasabi ang bakla walang makakaintindi kundi kapwa bakla lang yan…At ang affair ng mga bakla dapat sa atin lang yan, wag na natin ipangalandakan sa tao. Bat natin kailangan sabihin sa tao na, uy intindihin mo nga ako bakla ako, teka muna,” Reyes added.
Meanwhile asked about his stand about the controversial SOGIE Bill, Ricky has this to say;
“Kung ikaw ay may n*ta, sa lalaki ka, pag may k*pay sa babae ka…Nirerespeto kita bilang tao, nirerespeto bilang bading pero lumugar tayo sa tamang lugar.
“Dun lang tayo sa tamang lugar, kasi meron naman tayong gay community…Bat tayo pupunta ng bar at ipagpipilitan mong girl ka eh eh may bar naman para sa mga bading di ba?
“Dun ka sa lugar natin. Wag mo ipagsaksakan ang sarili mo sa hindi ka naman matatanggap,” Reyes explained.
Reyes’ stand is total opposite from those pushing for the bill like Vice Ganda. Vice is one of the vocal supporters of the SOGIE Bill who just recently called out Senate President Tito Sotto for his anti-LGBT statements.
SOGIE Bill is currently being heard at the committee level in Senate.
It gained more attention after transgender woman Gretchen Diez’s experience being refused entry to the ladies room in a mall in Cubao made the news.
