It’s so frustrating to see people try to portray Merckz as a villain and a gatekeeper of the craft… Can we stop and ask ourselves first, what makes Ballroom, ballroom, before jumping to any guns… At this point, we’ll have little to no representation of Ballroom with the amount of opinions coming from people who does not have any knowledge nor know the history of how Ballroom was introduced in the Philippines…
congratulations Merckz for keeping the drag ph discourse alive for almost three weeks now. another week written under your name and more to come. BIGYAN NG RU BADGE YAN!
imagine accusing merckz of gatekeeping ballroom when she's putting herself out there in drag race as the ballroom diva to introduce the art and community to the filipino drag race fans
way back nung director palang namin si ate @merckzz_ sa nectar, she always tells us na if you wanna do the elements sa performance atleast take classes for vogue or attend ballroom…
she’s looking out for us kase nga baka ma call out kami… so di ko gets saan problem?? 😬
hindi naman gine-gatekeep, pinoprotektahan lang kasi kilala ko kayo bakla, kapag may bet kayong gawin kahit di niyo naiintindihan gagayahin niyo baklaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa bAAAKLAAAAAAAAAAAA 🫵🏻🫵🏻🫵🏻🫵🏻🫵��🫵🏻🫵🏻🫵🏻🫵🏻
i think Aja said it best talaga na they aren’t gatekeeping, they just want to emphasize that there is a deeper historical context as to why it existed in the first place.
we’re aware of ballroom elements (slang, dips, voguing, etc.) but we only look at it as just a trend
