We love you raf.. your feelings are valid and so proud of you how you handled the situation. Your parents are so proud of you and so are we, the rafsquad. ❤️
sending the warmest hug love, we've witness your transition since the beginning and you're the bravest person i knew, u have the softest heart and you always choose to understand whatever they did to you, i love you, and we're always here to support amd fight for you against the all odds, we love you princess 🤍
I’m so sorry, Raf, that you have experienced that discriminatory event. But I love your mindset that you have reminsced from your Papa. It shows that your heart is pure and forgiving. We are far from reaching a genuine equality but thank you for standing up and speaking up by sharing your story to us. May people learn from your story and be mindful that misgendering a transgender woman is not an issue that should be taken so lightly.
First thing na dapat ginawa ay nag-reach out sa Metro. Kung hindi kasi sila aware, yung Team na gumawa ng poll, di hindi rin sila mag-apologize at ayusin yung online poll that night.
Sending warm hugs, Raf. I recently went for holidays in the Philippines and have experienced being misgendered multiple times. Same with you, my family is the only reason why I kept my composure and not react so badly. We are still far from total acceptance from society but thank God we have our families and friends who never let us feel alone. God created us to be these beautiful humans to live a life that is not boring but rather unique. XOXO Kei from Ireland 😘
Actually male and female are not classifications of gender..They are biological characteristics as a human or sexual anatomy, which we refer as sex (male or female). But it would be better if they used the terms man and woman (gender) as these are used to refer to how a person self-identifies in terms of being a boy/man or girl/woman...If they used man or woman, you are classified as a woman...
We feel you ate Raf. Your feelings are always valid and we always support you and we are here always for you ate. We love you ate Raf ❤️❤️✨✨Sending many hugss to you ate and prayers po for your papa for faster recovery niya po.✨✨✨
you've always been the humble and kind person in and out. I also dont see any excuse to not know you regardless if your popular or not. the one who made the lists should be held responsible for the candidates who attended. Nevertheless , you still have a genuine heart , that's why you have a million subscribers and deserve more.. we love you... smiles and hugs .. thanks for mentioning me and my partner sa ig live mo kagabi .... we really missed watching your bubbly personality.... may your dad recover from what he is suffering right now .. prayers to you and your family ps.. we might not know you personally but i saw what you become and what youve transformed into.. the journey of your diary is mine too.. one of the best na videos na inuulit ulit ko is when you had dinner with your parents then revealed to them what you really are .. and it made my cry endless nights about it
We love you and we accept you for who u are. You're a good person. Just continue to spread good vibes and positivity. I'm also praying for your Papa, for his fast recovery. I don't know while watching your video I got teary eyed. Remember this, God loves you, He loves us! May God bless your Fam. Luv you! 💖
I was also shocked when i saw your name in the male section of the fan vote. I really felt bad for you, Sending big Virtual hugs!! I hope you're okay 🥺
Sending warm hugs mami raf!! You have a Softest Heart Talaga and No one Can Deny it. I Just Want you to Know na Even you are In Male category Maybe by Mistake,we Will always Consider You as A Beautiful Gorgeous Woman. Iloveyou mami!💜
Tama ang papa mo raf.. siguro its a honest mistake siguro wala naman tao na gusto mag pahiya ng kapwa since na sabi mo nga Raf ang name mo siguro dun nalang din sila ng base 😊. Alam mo isa na panuod ko always palagi tayong titingin sa positive side always nating iisipin na kasama natin ang LORD sa lahat ng bagay . Hindi konman lubos na maintindihan ang feelings mo pero merong mas lubos na nakakaintindi sayo yan ang LORD🥰🥰. Stay pretty
Same with me sis😢 halos naman tayo na gaganyan eh😢 Kaya Laban Lang tayo wag susuko❤️ kahit di PA din tayo tanggap! Lalaban tayo until the end❤️ at mag tatagumpay tayo❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
Really sorry to hear what happened sa ball. You don't deserve it at malaki nga chance na nagkamali sila and hindi aware si naglista. Ramdam na ramdam po pain lalo na kapag dad mo pinag-uusapan. Praying po na makarecover si dad ng mas mabilis at bumalik 100% ang health niya. In God's name. Amen. Love lots Dave & Joanne vlogs #MrandMrsB ❤️

Wow! Raf I’ve been your avid follower ever since 2017 nung bago ka pa Lang. And you’re one of my favorite skincare vlogger. Napahanga din ako sa mindset mo Raf. You’re a beautiful person. Inside and out! Sending hugs and love 🤗🤗❤❤
I also feel you ate, I am also misgendered a lot by people. I am always addressed as "sir" by these people especially those working at a convenience stores, super markets, malls and all. Like nakapambabae na nga ako and mahaba buhok ko and still, they kept on addressing me as "sir". One time nga is this lady on the counter looked at me twice and still address me as "sir" which makes me mad deep inside. I just kept it to myself and get my goods and left. Like 2022 na, arent these people still uneducated and ignorant? That's why we need to be educated regarding this kind of matter.
No offense po pero I'm not invalidating you or what po, pero baka those people you are calling out (yung mga nasa convenience store, malls etc.) di din aware sa mga gender associations. Yes, baka "uneducated" lang sila that's why we have to educate them instead of judging them. Most of the people you call out are undergrads and are not that adept in the internet and technology because of poverty. Some people just doesn't have the priviledge as we have to have the right education let's not judge them :(
@@mightymight24 HINDI NAMAN KELANGAN NA DAPAT DEGREE HOLDER KA PARA GAMITIN MO COMMON SENSE MO NA KAPAG ANG KAHARAP MO IS NAGPO PORTRAY NG PAMBABAE SA HITSURA, PANANAMIT, PANANALITA AT GALAW EH AUTOMATIC NA YUN NA GUSTO NIYA E ADDRESS SIYA AS FEMALE...COMMON SENSE LANG NAMAN ANG KELANGAN DIYAN... KAPAG FEMININE ANG KAHARAP MO, ADDRESS HER AS FEMALE AT KUNG MASCULINE NAMAN EH ADDRESS HIM AS MALE.. SIMPLE AS THAT... SINASADYA TALAGA NG MGA VOVONG HETERO PEOPLE NA E MISGENDER ANG MGA TRANS KASI AYAW NILA E RESPETO ANG GENDER IDENTITY AND EXPRESSION NATIN...
@@chismosangdannie What I mean to say po is that may iba lang talaga na unaware sila na offensive ang pagtawag sa trans sa past nilang gender so in result, di nila alam ano itatawag nila. It's nice that were "woke" in this time and age but we kinda forgot that not everyone has the capacity to keep up with the woke culture that's why we need to educate those people
@@mightymight24 yea agree! Instead of letting them feel worse by saying na some are nanadya, madami din po tlaga uneducated sa ganyan aspeto. Ako walang nag turo sakin pero automatic na sakin na basta nakapambabae maam agad tawag then i asked ppl around me bakit sila litong lito , hindi din daw nila alam bakit. they are not bad ppl hindi lang sila educated hindi namn lahat masama ang isip sa mga trans.
Watching this made me miss you more!!! But omg, so sorry this happened to you babe 🥺 I hope maging aware sila about this so they can be more careful next time. Hugs and so much luv to you 💗
Enough for maltreatment we are all equal from this world only GOD can judge ooopppss don't you dare that you call your self God no one should define this beautiful woman for who she is starmagic this absurd thing to do I thought you people know that ♀️ @starmagic please apologize This is not big deal for you people to do this, She needs her confidence back she is raised by the two great parents with love they teach her how to be respectful she is taught with integrity with kind and strong personality. Just uknowledge your wrong doings we do not know if there is a mistake or what just please apologize thank in advance And by the way ate raf one of my fav icon you're a great person we live you and appreciate your existence. Ciao
Ang hirap lang like me. Mukha pa rin akong gay sakanila. Kahit na nag pahaba na ako ng hair and lipstick on and etc. Ayun then I'm feeling like a woman, I consider my self as a transgender but the other people gay ako sa tingin nila. Kase wala pa daw akong bugging and kepyas di daw ako trans. So sad.
You’d think Metro Magazine would issue an apology after that. It’s a shame and whoever was in charge of the poll that night should get fired. Its unacceptable! It’s an embarrassment for Metro I’m sure! Heads should be rolling!
Ganyan yan talaga kapag nagsisimula ka pa sa HRT journey mo... lahat ng trans eh na experience yan and yung iba eh nai experience pa din kahit ilang years na nag HRT and its a sad reality dito sa Pilipinas... there is nothing really we can do about it but deadmatology nalang para di masira araw natin....or pwede din ikaw proactive magsabi na female pronouns ang prefer mo...nakaka sad lang to think na puro mga baklush, queer, alanganing tomboy, baklang paminta, baklang closeta, ang mga nagwo work for Metro Magazine, eh apakabobo nila on how to treat Transwomen...napa basic naman sana yan..jeskelerd....FOR SURE ANG GUMAWA NG POLL NA YUN EH BAKLANG PAMINTA NA KASING HARD NG HARDIFLEX ANG PAGMUMUKHA KAYA INSECURE SA MGA VAVAIHAN YANG MGA BAKLANG HARDIFLEX NA MGA YAN KASI DI SILA NAKAKA HARVAT KUNG DI MAG PAYOLA SA MGA OTOKO.. .EH TAYONG MGA VAVAIHAN EH NADADAAN LANG SA GL CARD KAYA MADALING MAKA HARVAT NG MGE BEBE BOIS HAHAHAHAH EMS
Your feelings and emotions are validated mi 🫂💕! This content goes to show that Transwomen are Women! Continue blossoming and be an inspiration to others! Isang mahigpit na yakap mi para sayo from us who are supporting and accepting you all throughout! 😘💕🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈
I love you ate raf i know, i feel your pain, mahirap man pero dapat nating kayanin oo masakit sa ating mga bakla o trans at sa lahat ng miyembro ng LGBT na ma misgendered ng iba. Hanggang ngayon ipinaglalaban ko parin ang aking karapatan sa lipunang ito lalo na sa skwelahan kung saan ako pumapasok hindi ko tanggap ang paka putol ng aking buhok dahil lang sa cleanliness at neatness na tinatawag nila pero wla akong magagawa kundi sumunod isang taon kong buhok nawala lang sa isang iglap.
Raf! Sending hugs from New York City 🗽💖. Please get out of the Philippines and move to USA or Europe where transgender has the freedom and rights to be who they are. Keep up girl and stay strong ❤
This is the biggest challenge for us being a transgender (transwoman).. We are in the world that few people will only understand us for real. It's okay to feel in pain because we really don't have any option just to understand our situation. I hope we could really get a true essence of acceptance.
I feel you.. Miss RAF marami padin kasi d2 sa bansa natin na HND marunong or hnd NLA alam padin tumokoy ng gender identity.. Kulng padn kasi sa pag educate sa mga tao..
Tama yang ganyan mindset raf😢 just think na lang na ganun nga na hindi ka ganun kakilala ng nagsulat. Go to metro and look for the writer and editor and tell them how you feel and educate them. That way mawala ung sakit ng loob and mapatunayan na tama ang magiging advise ni papa mo😢❤
I'm so sorry for you ate raf,, don't cry na Po, KC for us na sumusuporta Sayo khit ano kapa TANGGAP KA PO NAMIN, IM SAD PO PAG SAD KAYO, and don't worry andito lang kami for you🫰💜ate
