“Nakakatuwa kasi kasama ang mga LGBT (I enjoyed their company), natuto ako ( I also learned ) from them .Magaan ang loob ko sa kanila.( They are easy to go with)”Florida said.

Florida invited the clan** members of “Boyz Town Academy (BTA)” –the famous MSM*** (men having s3x with men) clan in the country- to attend the eyeball****. She targeted the Rizal Chapter aged 16-27 years old. The attendees are from Municipality of Antipolo, Binangonan, Cardona, Tanay, Morong, and Angono wherein they spent whole night for the said get-together.

Moreover, Jonathan D. Orbuda delivered the orientation on what are the differences between S3xual Orientation, Gender Identity, and Expression.

“Masaya ako na naipamahagi ko ang kaalaman ko sa mga batang ito( I am glad to share my knowledge to these youth.” Orbuda said.

“Naging clan founder din ako nung kasing edad ko sila( I used to be a founder of a clan when I was young) , at nakita ko ang sarili ko sa kanila ( and I can see myself to them) – ang maling pagkakakilanlan sa sarili nila ( the failure to identify one’s self ) at sa maling information na nakatatak sa kamalayan nila dahil sa kakulangan ng kaalaman ( and misinformation they learnt )” he added. Orbuda focused on the differences between Lesbian, Gay, Bis3xual and Transgender. 

“They consider gay to be someone dressed as a girl (cross-dressing) but if you’re dressed as a guy you’re considered Bis3xual which is wrong information. And so, I emphasized the context of SOGIE”, Orbuda explained.

After the gathering, food and beverages were served.

“Natuto ako talaga sa (I learnt so much from the) discussion .Na-realize ko kasi na sa clan namin ( I just realized that within my clan) , may discrimination din - kasi bawal sumali ang mga pa-girl at crossdresser ( we discriminate effeminates and cross dressers). Napagtanto ko na discriminated na nga tayo sa lipunan( I realized that we are already discriminated within our society) , tayo- tayo pa ang nagdi (but we also)- discriminate within our LGBT community.” JM from Antipolo shared.
