https://nypost.com/2017/12/17/philippines-duterte-says-he-supports-gay-marriage/

I said I am for (same) sex marriage if that is the trend of the modern times, he said. If that will add to your happiness, I am for it.

Duterte previously was quoted by local media as saying he was opposed to gay unions because marriage in the Philippines is only between a man and a woman.

Doesn't he also support state wide birth control because of some beef with the church?

Pretty awesome tbh. Maybe he isnt such a bad guy after all.

"Why impose a morality that is no longer working and almost passe," he said, adding that "there will be no oppression" during his term in office and that his government would recognise the LGBT community's "importance in society".

Considering how many gay filipinos i've fucked in the US, they might as well make it legal to marry them elsewhere too.

Assume he's being honest, why would that make him an ass? It seems if more people thought this way the world might be better.

Yep, totally agreed. It takes a larger leader to say they don't like something but will support it nonetheless because of the people.

Yes, kill the peddlers and shit but Duterte took it one level further and is killing users or people believed to be users as well. It shouldn't be a death penalty for putting something into your own body but in the Philippines it is.

Uh no. Cracking down on corruption is the way to go. But if you're a psychopath and like killing people, then maybe you'd feel that's the best route.

How is that? Trump has also been supportive of the LBGT community. Remember when he held up the flag during his campaign?

Look at the people he keeps company with, look at his biggest supporters. Trump could turn agianst the LGBT community at any time if it means praise from his supporters.

He's a piece of shit, but at least he can put aside his own ideals (on this issue and it seems like only this issue) to create a somewhat better environment for a marginalized group. Not saying it makes him a better person, but it's definitely something.

On one hand, I don't think it's wise for a leader to have that thought process, but on the other hand, this is on the topic of gay rights. I know people that are outright repulsed by it and it doesn't matter what you say to them because those negative emotions will override it.

If this is what it takes for him to be accepting of it, then I'll take it.
