“(The gay community in Phnom Penh) is secret. But it is much better now because of social networks. Some (gay men) feel not so sure, but it’s much better than before. But it is still secret because they are afraid of parents or family.
(I knew I was gay) a long time. In my social life, for about ten years. For me, I feel I am ok. I’m 50/50. 50/50 means I don’t care about people talking about I’m gay or whatever, I know myself and whatever I like is whatever I want. But I don’t show off to my parents as well.
For me, I don’t require much. I like people who I like. The best things that I like are appearance or characteristics, morality as well, I don’t want to be with gangsters, it is not my type. Simple for me and easy going (is best).
(With regards to successes) I think my tailor business is going well because it is the fifth year. And now I have another business, it is a gay friendly coffee gallery. It is a new flavor in town, Strange Fruit, it is just opening but I hope it is going to be more and more successful.
(Advice to my younger self) Be good, be happy.”
Love the name for the shop…good luck
You seem like a very sincer and beautiful person. I have been blessed to be part of the “Gay Lib” movement here in the USA. Our lives are freer now, but not “perfect.” Have courage, Have a good life, and stay safe.
You seem to be forging ahead and making a life for yourself regardless. That is so encouraging to hear. May your businesses grow from success to success.
Be good, be happy. What a special look inside people’s lives and homes. I feel so privileged.
