His eccentricity is visible.

In the Philippines, intellectuals exhibit eccentricity, as elsewhere in this world. And as elsewhere in this world, normal people try to suppress them, including accusing them of deviant sexuality. In the Philippines, eccentrics often learn the gay dialect as a way to signal to others that they are different and to appear more unthreatening. Each country has a different, yet similar way, in treating eccentric intellectuals.
