These are what I call the oohh la la gowns. I think it’s self-explanatory why I call them oohh la la. Yeah, real show-stoppers and scene-stealers.

That candidate must be really despeerate! Isali ba naman ang picturen niya sa sagala!
Gloria Romero look alike? Mmm.. I agree with you, Connie. More of Bingbong Crisologo. lol! But in fairness, he looks very elegant, at pinakamatino ang gown. hehehe. The roses even match the color of his dress.

I enjoyed taking them too, Judy. 
The gays were really accommodating. They wouldn’t resume walking until I had taken all the pics I wanted.
mari, eh pag walang boobies di pwede mag plunging neckline di ba?
rhodora, naku, may “announcer” pa yung candidate ha, na naka-megaphone. Pampasira talaga.

Mas maayos pa sila sa akin. This reminds me to buy more decent clothes for myself and to pay more attention to my hair.
The one in the first pic is pretty.

Isn’t it amazing that my teen aged years had been spent in my parents’ house in Marikina and yet, I have not seen any of this parades? I’ve heard of it before but somehow it did not pique my interest. Bakit kaya? Hindi naman ako homophobic!

LOL Jayred, there were moments when I got that feeling too. Especially about my hair. 
Tito Rolly, eh yung Santacruzan ng mga lola, nakapanood ka na? That’s quite an event din daw although I haven’t seen one. Weekdays kasi eh.

On the last photos: Bingbong for sure! Esp when Bingbong was younger and not yet all wrinkled up. hehe

Naku po! Some of them are more feminine than I am. The ‘ladies’ in first and second pictures look real.

Why is it that I keep looking at picture #1 and somehow entertaining the possibility of a complex relationship?
