Now, what about baby can a grown gay man like me has to talk about. Well, even thou i can't give birth (thank god for that!) i still can have a family right? My little niece has arrived... and those cute eyes are so adorable *swoon*.
My two siblings are already married and have successfully given birth... so very soon i would be bearing the blunt of the questions, "So... When's your turn?"
There's this saying in Chinese,
“不孝有三,无后为大”
So, The question now would be,
1) Do i care about the feelings of my parents?
2) Can i withstand the looks of the society?
3) Would i be able to overcome the agony of traditional thinking?
4) Should i carry on being who i am?
I guess this would be what most of the Chinese gay adults has to go through。
I often quote my mum's phrase in life,
“养儿育女,长优一百”
But i know she's only saying it because she cares... Sigh, all this thinking is making me go round and round...
