OPINION EMITTERS
Dr. Dear
Dr. Dear is, obviously, a doctor of sorts, and is the regular medical voice of the gayzine. Ask, he said, and you'll get your answers “in print so everyone can share – and perhaps even learn from what it is you want/need to know about.”
Kiki Mura
Kiki Mura is a “budding” transgender who makes the rounds and is in the know of the five Wives (in newsmen terminology, the important Ws to ask when interviewing, i.e. Who, What, When, Where and Why) and one Husband (for the one H, i.e. How) for everything transgender in the Philippines . “Besides,” she said, “even if I didn't know, my dear, my circle is wide enough to fill in the rest of those that I missed or simply don't know!”
Auntie Cru
Auntie Cru is a 40ish self-described “opinionated bitch” out to give her opinions on everything to those brave enough to ask for them. “At least I give them the summarized, no-frills, un-beautified truth,” she said, “and that's more than anybody can ask for in this PR-filled sucker of a world!”
Makisig Santos
Makisig Santos, 24, is an on/off sex worker, who believes that since the profession is inherently dangerous, SWs need to be provided with as much know-how as possible for them to be able to protect themselves in whatever situation they find themselves in – and this is the very intention he intends to achieve here, with Pokpokan Blues.
Fr. Richard R. Mickley, OSAe., Ph.D.
Fr. Richard R. Mickley, OSAe., Ph.D. is the founder and abbot of the Order of St. Alread, active in the LGBTI advocacy movement in the Philippines. He is a Korean war veteran, and enjoys the war against sex-negative theology, and promotes the peace and joy of sex-positive theology.

Chronicles of E
E is a 25-year-old self-described “undergrad and an ex-junkie.” “ Oh yeah,” he adds, “I'm also HIV positive. Currently self-rehabilitating and facing my demons from my past, plus living my life one day at a time.” He’s a blogger (“I blog because I have plenty of baggage I need to unload. Mostly because I'm full of shit,” he says), and he writes for Outrage Magazine because “not all homosexuals are pink. I represent another side of the gay rainbow flag – the color black.”
More of his work is available at http://the-chronicles-of-e.blogspot.com/ (and soon, at positivism.com). Reach him at echronicles@gmail.com.
