I appreciate the period songs that had helped me…but I couldn’t turn the other cheek what is the true reality on the ground

So to Mother Monster…as I lay my rainbow flag down for this period. I feel sad but proud at same time

But I will never allow the death of individuals to occur just because of their identities/ religion/ creed…it goes against my conscious

Because to me, an opinion of others who viewed me as undesirable doesn’t have any weight on how I live my life

Even if the religion that I was born into which the same as them, do not view me as equal

All I know I do not want to be a hypocrite. That lives of a population outweighs all

And ignoring that Mother monster supported and undersigned the anti-boycott

How can I as a peace loving gay man (who faced discrimination, threats) is willing to accept that a population suffer the same treatment as I am, pretend to ignore…

The final straw that broke my heart was the list of artists that supported and undersigned the brutality on 🍉 population

And she was on it…

But as the evidence stacked, my identity not just as a
1. Malay man
2. Gay man

was put into questioned. I couldn’t bear my humanity being questioned as I saw how brutal a population had to bear/agonised

However I was on the fence because there I believe all forces have it’s cause and effect

Coming out as a Malay man…it seemed easy (to the public eye) that I would support

Now when the geno lay waste to Gaza and people throwing criticism on whose fault lies

However like all adults…you are hit with reality…that often idols are flawed

13/28
May 20, 2025 at 8:11 AM
And my identity grew and I was comfortable to accept that it is okay being a Malay gay young adult (then)

From classic Telephone to Bad Romance…to me it felt hope was possible and I slowly came to terms in reclaiming certain parts of my ‘lost childhood’

And her nonchalant attitude when rumours swirled around her ‘extra appendage’. And yet she performed which drew in the hearts of her ‘monsters’

Along came this brazen idol with her coded songs

So it wasn’t surprise that public shaming drove the majority of us in seclusion….

It was the same period whereby society will throw a fit if they find out celebs or the common man humping a man

May 20, 2025 at 8:11 AM
Yea it was a period that often young queer folks discover their identities through party drugs, chem, addiction etc

OR you learn from your ‘elders’ and/or navigate on your own with your path riddled with perils
