Q***r stories deserve to be seen.
We belong on the big screen.

Indeed, we have achieved great heights in our calls for visibility, for our stories to be heard, and for our right to desire and exist. However, after Dreamboi was given an X rating twice by the MTRCB, we are harshly reminded that the fight is far from over.

In spite of this, we continue. We continue to rise. We rise because we stand firm in our beliefs that we will NOT allow ourselves to be silenced again.

To be seen is not obscene.
To tell our stories is not a crime.
We will keep fighting for our place, for our voice โ€” and we will win.

Watch Dreamboi by Rodina Singh from October 22 to 28, exclusively at Ayala Malls Cinemas.

It has been 25 years too long. That is 25 years of delayed recognition, delayed protection, and delayed justice. Every year that passes without the bill is another year in which inequality is sanctioned by inaction.

Three more lawmakers have filed House Bill No. 5266, or the SOGIESC Equality Act, which seeks to penalize discrimination based on S*xual Orientation, Gender Identity, Gender Expression, and S*x Characteristics (SOGIESC). Earlier in the 20th Congress, similar versions of the bill were also filed by Reps. Perci Cendaรฑa, Chel Diokno, Kaka Bag-Ao, Dadah Kiram, Renee Co, and Antonio Tinio, all pushing for equal rights and protection from discrimination.

Delaying the Equality Bill is not neutral โ€” it is a blatant attack on the rights and dignity of EVERY FILIPINO. For more than two decades, people have been killed, forced to live in fear, and countless have endured discrimination without recourse.
To go against the Equality Bill is to be complicit in violence and inequality.

To our senators and representatives, the Equality Bill has been refiled every Congress for 25 years. The same arguments have been repeated, and the same misconceptions have been clarified again and again. There is nothing left to debate โ€” only the choice between justice and complicity.

End discrimination. Pass the Equality Bill Now!

Ngayong International Le***an Day, pinapaalala natin: ang pagiging lesbiyana ay hindi pagsubok, mas lalo nang hindi paghihintay sa โ€œtamang lalakiโ€, at hindi rin โ€œyugtoโ€ na matatapos. Ang lesbiyana ay tunay, mahalaga, at karapat-dapat na kinikilala.

Ating ipinagdiriwang ang tapang at pag-ibig ng mga lesbiyanaโ€”mula sa noon pa mang una nilang pagmartsa ng identidad sa lansangan, sa pagpupunyagi kasama ang komunidad sa laban ng HIV/AIDS, hanggang sa tuluyang pagsigaw nila ngayon tungo sa mas makataong pagkikilala sa karapatan. Ipinagdiriwang din natin ang kanilang buo at malinaw na pag-iral na hindi kailanman matitinag.

Kailanman, ang pagmamahal ng mga lesbiyana ay pag-ibig na matatag, at lakas na humahamon sa lipunan upang kilalanin ang kababaihang umiibig sa kapwa babae. Idinidiin natin na ang Lesbiyana ay hindi yugto o pagkalitoโ€” ito ay pagkataong tunay na nagmamahal, buong pusong lumalaya at patuloy na lumalaban para sa ating mga karapatan.

Ngayong International Safe Abortion Day, ipinakikilala namin si Sunshine, ang batang babae at pangunahing tauhan sa pelikula ni Antoinette Jadaone, na napilitang humarap sa pagbubuntis sa gitna ng kanyang karera bilang isang pambansang atleta.

Ang kakulangan ng ligtas na opsyon ng pagpapalaglag na kinakaharap ni Sunshine ay hindi lamang nakakulong sa mundo ng pelikula ni Jadaone, ngunit isang malagim na katotohanan para sa libu-libong kababaihan sa Pilipinas na araw-araw pinaparusahan ng batas at stigma sa halip na mabigyan ng karapatan at kalinga.

Mariing naninindigan ang UP Babaylan para sa dekriminalisasyon ng aborsyon at para sa pagkilala na ang ligtas na aborsyon ay isang anyo ng tunay na kalinga: isang pagprotekta sa kalayaan, sa dignidad, at sa buhay ng kababaihan. Ang pagpili ay hindi krimen. Ang pagpili ay karapatan.

Ilang Sunshine pa ba ang kailangang magdusa bago tayo makinig?
Tumitindig kamit nananawagan: ligtas na aborsyon para sa lahat, ngayon na!

Heto akoโ€”nandito, ganap, at totoo.

Ngayong Bi Visibility Day, muli nating ipinapaalala: ang pagiging bisexual ay hindi pagkalito, hindi isang phase, at hindi rin pagtaksil sa komunidad. Ang bisexuality ay totoo, mahalaga, at karapat-dapat na kilalanin. Ang ating pagkatao ay hindi nakatali sa kasarian ng kasalukuyang minamahal, kundi sa malawak at malalim na kapasidad nating magmahal.

Ipinagpapatuloy natin ang laban upang kilalanin ang pag-iral ng mga bisexual sa ating lipunanโ€”mga taong may kani-kaniyang kasaysayan ng pakikibaka laban sa erasure at diskriminason, mula sa labas at maging sa loob ng LGBTIQ+ community.

Sa araw na ito, ating ipinagdiriwang ang kanilang tapang at pagmamahal. Naninidigan tayo na sa gitna ng mundong madalas tayong pinapapili, hindi kailanman makakahon ang pagmamahal at pagkatao. At mas lalong hindi mabubura ang uri ng pagmamahal na mayroon tayo.

Tayo ay totoo, at tayo ay buong-buo.
