(Mew speaking to Tong)
So I have one question:
If we can love someone so much, how will we be able to handle it the one day we are separated?
And, if being separated is a part of life, and you know about separation well, is it possible Tong, that we can love someone and never be afraid of losing them?
At the same time, I was also wandering. Is it possible that, we can love our entire life without loving anyone at all?
I really don't know if I am doing the right thing. Should I give up?
The characters still haunt me. My brain can still draw the twists and turns of Mew and Tong's romance. And my heart still sobs reminiscing the frustration I felt at the end of the film.
The "Love of Siam" is a dramatic and romantic film about teen gay romance. The development of the romance between Mew and Tong is "to the nth level kilig". However, like most of gay relationships, contradictions pressed by the society spiced the story.
I won't go on into reviewing because I will allot another space for it another time. I just want to point out a thought.
Nahihirapan kasi ako ng lubusan. Sobra. Gusto kong sumigaw. Gustong kumawala ng emosyong kinikimkim ko sa aking puso. Gusto kong umiyak.
Mahirap magmahal kapag may piniling kasarian ka lalo pa't kung ang iibigin mo ay wala namang kasiguraduhan kung kaya kang tanggapin.
At siyempre, bakit ba hindi kaya ng minamahal mong tanggapin 'yun. Bottomline pa rin ang society. Na kahit naglipana na ngayon ang bakla at lesbiyana, hindi pa rin sila lubusang tanggap ng lipunan. Partikular na ang pagkakaroon ng same sex relationship. Mauugat pa rin sa kulturang minulat sa atin ng sumakop sa atin lalo na nang kasalukuyang sumasakop sa atin. Imperialist plunder on culture pa rin. Ayoko nang magdetalye dahil masyado ng sensitibo kapag napasukan na ng relihiyon.
Kung tutuusin, lahat naman tayo ay tinuruang magmahal. Sabi nga ni Boy Abunda, sa iisang utos lahat lumulundo ang Ten Commandment at iyon at "Love". At wala siyang nakikitang mali sa ginagawa niya dahil nagmamahal siya. Siya sy tumalima.
Bakit ba may mga taong narerepress ang kanilang karapatang magmahal? Kailangan na talagang lumaya ng lipunan.
Sabi nga ni Mao, "Genuine equality between the sexes can only be realized in the process of the socialist transformation of society as a whole."
Rebolusyon ang solusyon.
