Hello Everybody
Hello everybody, I"m Marlo from Philippines, Im a little bit strange here because most of here are americans if i'm not mistaken, I was able to browse this site when I read the comment of the movie "Fish Cant Fly" well anyway, I work here in the Philippines as Accounting Supervisor and so much work to do where no time for lovelife. Hahahaha. I hope this site will be helpful for me to understand more about my identity being confuse about my sexual orientation and the Church(Roman Catholic) against homosexuality.
May God bless all you Guys and may this site be known to Gays and Lesbians around the world. Mabuhay(Long Live) Soulforce.Org Marlo

Hello Marlo. Welcome. Best of luck to you as you learn to understand your own orientation - take your time, be gentle with yourself.
Wish you the best.

Welcome, Marlo
There is a LOT of interesting, and I hope useful information to be found in the posts here. It will probably take some digging to find it. Good Luck!

Hi Marlo and welcome to Soulforce. I haven't seen the film Fish Can't Fly yet, but it looks good. I definitely like the title.
When I worked for Lexmark (a printer manufacturer) they had just opened a new facility in Cebu. Several of the newly hired engineers from the Philippines came here to work for six months first. I worked with an engineer name Felipe, who was Catholic. One day he asked if I was married and I told him that I was gay and did not have a partner. Not sure if I had caught him offguard, I jokingly followed up by saying, "You have gay people in the Philippines, right?" He said yes but the only ones he knew were the very flamboyant ones.

Marlo, welcome to you! So glad you found the forums, hope you enjoy it. You will find many friends. Looking forward to sharing with you!
My girl (partner) is a Filipina. I'm pretty much a part of her family - the food is good (well mostly it is)!!

a book suggestion...a good one I have heard
Marlo,
A good book to help you may be "The Church and the Homosexual" written by John McNeill whom I believe is a former catholic Jesuit priest. Best wishes, shadeseraph Quote:

Hello Marlo
Welcome to Soulforce! We really have a knack for talking with persons who have questions about any part of dealing with orientation, and how that is impacted by our chosen religion, or how we were raised. Many of us have had similar experiences that seem to help out one another. I hope that you will come around often and use us as a resource as you need. Peace be with you- Vanessa
