Cops can be gay as long as they don’t sway
Saturday, March 24th, 2007Cops told: Be gay, just don’t sway. This is the title of a news article from a major Philippine newspaper The Philippine Star, written by Cecile Suerte Felipe.
The Philippine National Police (PNP) has issued a warning to gay officers not to sway their hips or display suggestive behavior while on duty or they risk losing their jobs.
Philippine National Police or PNP spokesman Chief Superintendent Samuel Pagdilao said, “If they sway their hips while marching, or if they engage in lustful conduct, I think that will be ground for separation from the service.”
According to Pagdilao, the PNP does not look at the sexual preference of individual police officers but they should be wary and be strict in the conduct and behavior of the law enforcers. He said if a police officer acts immorally or is indecent he could be sanctioned or dismissed from the police service. Cross dressers, he said, are not allowed. Gays and lesbians can join the police force as long as they can meet all the requirements, from examinations to physical training.
The PNP maintains that homosexuals are welcome to join the police force, provided that they refrain from immoral and indecent behavior.
