PBB housemate admits he’s bisexual

July 18, 2014 Showbiz News

An anonymous comment about sexuality ‘from the outside world’ made Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) All In housemate Fifth Pagotan examine himself more closely.

The comment, according to PBB host Robi Domingo was, “Ayan na naman si ___, parang bakla kung magreklamo kaya siguro ‘di sila magkasundo ni ___,”

Bullying

Fifth said the comment might be referring to him, even as some people have been describing him as gay.

“Siguro doon po sa ‘parang bakla kung magreklamo,’ parang alam ko na po na ako iyon. Last week inamin ko naman yung pagkakamali ko na reklamo ako ng reklamo. Pwedeng ako siguro. Kasi sa labas, binu-bully ako, na parang bakla, parang malambot. ‘Sensitive ako, malambot ako,’” Fifth said in the July 16 episode of PBB.

Fifth admitted he complained a lot about the challenges and tasks inside big brother’s house.

True identity

“Siguro masasabi ko na parang bakla magreklamo kasi ganoon po ako magsalita, ganoon po ako kumilos. Masasabi ko na mareklamo talaga ako, minsan na gawa na rin ng stress, ng pagod. Inaamin ko yung pagkakamali ko at itatama ko po siya para makatulong siya sa sarili ko.”

 Kapuso actress Chariz Solomon’s brother told fellow housemate Manolo Pedrosa the truth about his identity.

 “Siguro hindi ako straight. Siguro bisexual ako. Hindi ko alam kung magbabago yung mga tao,” Fifth said.

Acceptance from loved ones

He added, “Kung iibig po ako, hindi ko po iisipin yung status ng buhay ng tao, itsura or sekswalidad ng tao.”

Fifth admitted he feels hurt whenever people tease him about his sexuality. But he tries his best not let it affect him too much. What’s important for the PBB housemate is that he knows himself and his loved ones accept him for who he is.

 “Masakit siya pero minsan titiisin mo na lang. I don’t need to explain myself to them. Lagi ko na lang ba ipapaliwanag ang sarili ko? Hindi, kasi kilala ko ang sarili ko and as long as totoo ako at totoo ako sa mga taong nakapaligid ko, masaya na ako doon. I don’t need to explain myself to them.”

Admiration and support

Vice Ganda and some netizens expressed admiration and support for Fifth’s courage in admitting his true identity.

 “Kung pwede lang akong pumasok ngayon sa PBB house para yakapin si FIFTH at ipadama sa kanya ang paghanga ko. Kay tapang mo,” Vice Ganda tweeted.

Chariz also showed her support for her twin brothers, PBB housemates Fifth and Fourth.

“Salamat sa pagmamahal kay kambal, at sa mga hindi namin nagugustuhan na opinion jan,ok lang yan, kung ikinasaya nyo po, masaya narin kami,” Chariz tweeted.
