		<description>Mitsuru: thanks for the post and hope you become a regular poster for 8Asians! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;i think there is that mistaken belief that being queer or LGBT is being white, especially by people (especially of color) who aren&#039;t aware of how different sexualities and genders existed precolonial/pre-Christian times, and it wasn&#039;t a big deal.  personally, i&#039;m proud of being queer and Filipino and refuse to make any &quot;choices&quot; among my gender, sexuality and cultural background, even if i am a relatively boring gay-identified bio-boy who&#039;s also Filipino American. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;it kinda annoys me that he&#039;s calling himself a &quot;pregnant man&quot; since it seems that he&#039;s milking the supposed weirdness of it all (i guess since most people aren&#039;t used to seeing transmen, much less ones who decide to become pregnant), but if anything it shows that there are many different ways to show that gender isn&#039;t just strictly male or female.  i had no idea that he was mixed either.</description>

		<description>Great post, Mitsuru. I can relate with the last bit. I want to thank &lt;a href=&quot;http://8Asians.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;8Asians.com&lt;/a&gt; for having such diverse guest writers and for welcoming and sharing often unheard voices within the AA community. *thumbs up!*</description>
