like can we at least give the younger queer folks, lesbians especially, the grace??? i couldn’t even begin to wrap how miserable you could be to look at the triumph of a young lesbian and the first thing that came into your mind was to criticize it??? hello??!!!?? 😭😭😭
fandoms, books, or even cartoons have helped thousands of queers (especially in conservative families) realize they’re not broken or alone. hindi naman sinasabi na ‘yun lang ang source ng identity, pero mocking people who started their journey there is just elitist gatekeeping.
if I have the privilege to grow old as a queer woman and if I ever become jaded and bitter and project that onto younger queers just shoot me in the head it would be mercy in itself
this is so 😧 ang hirap sa inyo, napakababa ng tingin niyo sa laman ng ao3, kesyo “fanfiction” lang at nasa linya ng pop culture. 'di mo ikatataas ang pananaw mo at h'wag kang magsasalita ukol sa dignidad kung ganyan ka magsalita sa kapwa mo manunulat.
yung particular point na "sarap maging tibo na hindi sa fandom nakukuha ang validation ng pagiging tibo" napataas talaga kilay ko kasi how do u lament the lack of support towards local queer lit as a writer pero ikaw naman mismo sobrang liit ng pagtingin mo sa audience mo 😅
@SOULPRlCE here's the thing. nasaan yung pagpapasalamat sa kanila? you're saying this now but doesn't change the fact that, well, where is the acknowledging of these real lesbians? nakarating ba sa kanila pasalamat? that's my whole point.
bakit niyo pinupulis ang lived experiences ng mga lesbiyana? a lot of us did not grow up surrounded by queer women by the way. marami sa atin unang nakafeel ng representation thru fictional ships because that’s all we haaad my god
grabe ang entitlement over something na di mo naman gawa? acknowledgments are supposed to be PERSONAL kahit sino gusto mong pasalamatan GEW kasi nga at the end of the day gawa mo yan para kayong tanga katatapos lang ng pride month bunot na naman mga lesbians KAKAPIKON
In 1993, a group of young lesbians joined the Women’s Day rally in Quezon City, sparking what would later be known as the “mother of all Prides in the Philippines”.
Yesterday, after 7 years in development, we finally got to shoot day 1 of what is hopefully more shooting days!
talagang napapatunayan din sa kasaysayan ng pilipinas kung bakit L ang nangungunang letra sa LGBTQ+, at pinakikita rin na hindi hiwalay ang adbokasiya para sa mga kababaihan sa usapin ng kabaklaan. mabuhay!🏳️🌈❤️🔥
Before the first Pride march in 1994, our lesbian sisters were the first who dared to come out to the streets when the Lesbian Collective joined the International Women’s Day protest in 1992.
Today, they marched with a replica of the banner they carried 34 years ago.
