Haters gonna hate. Edi pakasal din kayo. Dedma. Bakit galit? Bakit di si binay nalang awayin ng Pilipino?

ang alaga knong aso, hindi ko kinukulong o tinatali kasi may mga paa din yan, may pakiramdam. ang akala ng ibang tao , lalo na ang mga hipokrito, hindi sa amin kailangan magpakasal kasi wala kaming pikiramdam sa ibang tao. TAO DIN KAMI!

End times? My goodness. Religious nutjobs have been saying that for centuries. LOL

plugs are for sockets. sockets are plugs, and not plugs for plugs, socket for sockets. I respect gays but i don’t support gay marriage for the small percentage of minority.

gay · 11 years ago

tao din kami. nakakaramdam din kami ng pagmamahal. naghahanap din kami ng makakasama sa buhay. pag minority ba wala nang karapatan?

Good job to Facebook and Google (also, Apple) for supporting equal rights.

It’s cool, USA entered the 21st century civilized community. Tayo sa pilipinas, kailan? Ay oo nga pala marami pala ditong rapist na pari at pastor na hindi pabor sa same-sex marriage.

Btw, abusalsal those gay couples will adapt and give good life to children abandoned by their straight parents. Straight parents that cannot perform their civil responsibility and obligation for their child.

if we all become gay then there goes extinction. didnt you understand the sarcasm? no matter how you retaliate with words you just cant bend science!

sensiblereally? · 11 years ago

Are you saying, pag LGBT, sure na hindi mag-aabandon or will not do the things you say STRAIGHT parents would do? Wow, who’s doing partiality now?

milhouse · 11 years ago

Correct. And all children of gay couples are wanted unlike straight couples who sometimes have unwanted children.

rainbow…wow! very gay facebook!

homosapiens · 11 years ago

Homosexuality is nothing new, its been recognized since thousands of years ago even before Christ. Same sex marriage is new to some but its been legalized in many countries for more than 10 years already.

abuzalzal · 11 years ago

It’s about time the human race has come to an extinction thanks to those gay couples who can’t reproduce.
