The Philippine president said that he was gay, but he is already "cured" | Chronic

The President of the Philippines, Rodrigo Duterte, involved in an act in Tokyo that he was once homobadual but that he already has "Cured".

During a meeting with the Filipino community in Tokyo as part of his official visit to Japan, Duterte mocked a political opponent, the senator Antonio Trillanesand said that his body movements "They show that he is gay".

"The good thing is that Trillanes and I are alike, but I've been healed"said the president quoted by Rappler, a Philippine media criticizing his government.

He also commented that he took the decision to "Become a man again" after meeting his ex-wife Elizabeth Zimmerman.

And he warned: "I do not care if I'm gay or not". This is not the first time the Filipino President comments on this style. In December 2017, she jokingly said that she was considering becoming bibadual for "Enjoy both sides", but what "It did not happen".

During his tenure, Duterte changed his position on the rights of the LGBT community in his country. Before being elected president in 2016, he had pledged to legalize same-bad marriage.

But he later withdrew his support for this possibility, arguing that the Philippine Civil Code established that "A man can marry only a woman and a woman can marry only one man".

In addition, after his speech in Tokyo, Duterte invited four women chosen by him to speak to kiss them, almost a year after the controversial kiss on the lips of a Filipino in Seoul who scandalized the feminist movement in his country.

"First, you should not be married, secondly, you can not be a minor, so, madam, you want a kiss?", Duterte slammed to the public. He then invited four women from the public selected on the podium, with similar characteristics: young, thin skin, fair skin and long hair.

"It's thanks to me.I want a kiss with a lip.A volunteer?", warned the controversial president, 74 years old. The first hesitated for a few seconds when he kissed the president on the lips or cheek, but finally opted for the last, an example that followed the other three.
