First off, I'm a guy (duh) . I'm
also a guy who likes other guys. Wait, did you know that? Hopefully
that is not too much of a surprise to you. Just to be understanding
of everyone, I know buzzwords like "gay" isn't in everyone's
preferred set of vocabulary. Just to be very global-minded, you
can use whatever word to describe it...I'm pretty open to slang
words or euphuisms, whatever floats your boat.
Being gay/queer is something that's
very important to me. Identity and knowing myself is a value that
I prize over anything else. Sexual identity isn't an easy topic
to handle or discuss. However, I think the Internet makes it a more
comfortable forum than the real world. As for myself, I am okay
with talking to people about it; it doesn't make me feel squeamish
at all. It's also a privilege that I am very conscious of.
Now that we have that all set aside, how about a brief rundown?
Stage of Life:
I currently consider myself to be an adult. Although some people
may disagree. Of course, I'm over 21. Even though I may not have
as many years of living experience as others in the world, it doesn't
mean that I am ignorant of what life is. I'm serious about being
a consummate professional when it comes to school or work. That
makes me feel old, yet responsible. However, many people have told
me that I should loosen up and act my age. So for now, I'm trying
to do that...
Freedom: That's something
that I have plenty of. I'm lucky to say that I have a lot of liberties
in life. I must admit that coming from a well-off family provides
you with a lot of perks. In addition, working long hours in a swell
job has help me save up a good nest egg. For the next year, I can
stay comfortably nurtured and draw upon my savings when needed.
Not having to worry about bills or debt is something that should
be treasured. Other freedoms include traveling and exploring. I
am blessed to be able to try new things and see what works for me.
Body Image: I see myself
to be "adequate". I know that I am not an Adonis, but
I certainly don't consider myself to be a leper either. In terms
of fashion, I don't buy into mainstream concepts of "hip n'
hot". I prefer to have my own style. I'm content with the way
that I fit into my clothes and the way that I look without them.
In US pop culture, it's so easy to be sucked into the unrealistic
and slightly scary idea of "beauty". I don't consider
myself to be an A&F, AE, Gap, or CK boy. (Gosh, that is scary!)
If I were to describe my style, I guess I would use the words, "urban,
weathered, and chic". Do I work out? Nope, it's not my thing.
I'm comfortable with my body right now...I don't feel the need to
bulk up or whatever.
Introduction
I don't really like these pages,
especially since they tend to get very cliché or corny.
Besides, I'm not too big on writing about myself (talking
about myself is a totally different issue). If you stumbled
onto this site, it's probably due to two reasons: 1) you want
to see more photos of me or 2) you want to get your hands
on all my sexy FAQ's and guides on gay Asian life.
Either way, I guess I'll be
glad to tell you more.
