Outrage as Duterte says 'cured' himself of being gayMANILA, Philippines— President Rodrigo Duterte has sparked outrage after claiming that he "cured" himself of being gay with the help of beautiful women. Duterte is notorious for his foul-mouthed speeches that include insults, threats to perceived enemies and references to rape that he casts as jokes. During his speech Duterte appeared to say that one of his high-profile critics, Senator Antonio Trillanes, was gay. "So beautiful women cured me," he added. Duterte has a wavering record when it comes to gay rights.
