Rumours are now going on their morning, afternoon and evening rounds that I am a gay. I'd like to put the case to rest that I am not, and this article will run in 180 degrees contradiction to my denials. So here goes my gay encounters!

I'm am writing from memory, and I hope that my neurons serve me right.

GAY ENCOUNTER 1:

I was in JC 1, and on a Christmas night. The place I had remembered so clearly as Anywhere pub at Tanglin shopping centre. The kind of place where Heinekens are served in pints and live bands played American Pie as yet unmassacered by Madonna. It was the first time I saw 2 guys kissing! Male lips profaning male lips, unworthy of morals I'd thought. Alban, the pub owner, another pretty boy kind was making chuckling and teasing noises from the band platform. What shit place had I got myself into! A Christmas I will never forget for unheterosexual reasons...

GAY ENCOUNTER 2:

Changi Village 7-11.

It was one of the army nights out for the instructors of Delta Company Tekong BMTC. One of my smoking kakis Marcus Soon suggested going to bapok town of CHangi for the famous nasi lemak. What must be said was that it wasn't the first time I had encountered these cross-dressing 'ice-cream' suckers. But that was the first time I'd got close enough to them to have a proper conversation with. Well, near the end of the night off, I had finished 2 cigarettes and a rather enjoying chat with 2 she-males... decent chaps who in the hope of light got obscured by darkness of insidious sexual services. I just hope that you guys know what I mean by this.

PS: I didn't engage in anykind of intercourse with them other than the social kind. FYI, the she-males are the beautiful Claire and Zhong Chu Hong (dunt think it's their real name).

GAY ENCOUNTER 3:

Lido Cineplex 1997, Shixian and I watched a rather good movie starring the gay icon Brad Pitt. It was midnight when we left and wanted to 'dawn' the night away, freestyle walking as the only denizens of night-time Orchard. Sad litter laid as pathetic confetti as we talked cock and walked up and down from Scotts to Tanglin and back to Lido Cineplex. As sleep was about to grab us, a guy just walked down to us about sharing a bottle of Jack Daniels. It was one of my first taste of hard liquer. Fast forwarding the itsy-bitsy details; Shixian was molested by that guy after I had left. What was claimed was that the guy slipped his hands under Shixian's jeans to grope at the trouser 'snake'. Old chum Shixian went hysterical and the incident disturbed him for quite a while. I recalled Shixian talking about Allan Hollinghuist and other gay icons for a time... but army had straightened him out(in more sense than one, haha!). What was noteworthy was the guy mentioned about opening an European marketplace like eatery at Hereen during his 'pick-up' conversation. Marche opened a week after the incident: you guys be the judge!

GAY ENCOUNTER 4

This is a summation of my personal unmemorable gay encounters. Most of them are either bartenders, ang mohs or in the night scene. I had guys staring rather none too discretely at my member at the urinal; or giving me drinks at clubs and talking about their lives, nothing I will give much thought until they give their phone number and asking me down to their workplace for a drink. Kee Tong had mentioned that one of his gay friends estimate the gay population to be at 15% to 20%. So maybe I'm well in the middle percentile of a Normal Distribution (I hope). The sickest gay encounter was at Farrer Park Swimming Pool. When I was bathing, an ang moh started stroking his dick in my view... the sight just makes me wanna puke.

Beware people! Of the jolly buch of gay men!!!!!
