The harsh reality of being LGBT+ in the Philippines 

Huwag ng ipilit ang ayaw ng karamihan, if gusto mo mag enjoy doon ka sa thailand or america.

Tolerated not accepted. People respect your decision but don’t push people to accept your beliefs and agendas. As they say, people asking for equality are more often seeking for privileges.

Truth is it depends on your social strata if you're rich and straight passing then you'll received less or no discrimination at all different from the poor counterparts

I disagree... LGBT accepted depende kung paano ka gumalaw at magisip! Maraming LQBTQ ang iginagalang d2 sa bansa dahil sa mga ikinikilos at galaw nila.

Good to see you doing an interview outside of the norm. You can only do so many "why did you move to the Philippines" videos. I for one support the LGBTQ+ community.

*I disagree with the notion that LGBT people are tolerated but not accepted. As a Christian Catholic myself, I have no issue with the LGBT community. Ultimately, acceptance hinges more on the individual's personality rather than their sexual orientation or gender identity. It's true that not everyone may embrace someone's identity as gay or LGBT, but this sentiment applies universally - not everyone is accepted by everyone else. In the end, it's all about personal preference and individual personalities.* *It's important to recognize that acceptance and tolerance are distinct concepts. Tolerance implies merely putting up with something, while acceptance implies genuine embracing and understanding. Moreover, the perception of LGBT individuals varies greatly among different communities, cultures, and belief systems. While some may fully embrace diversity, others may struggle to accept it. Nonetheless, fostering understanding and empathy can lead to a more inclusive society where individuals are valued for who they are. Ultimately, it's about respecting the diversity of human experiences and recognizing that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and acceptance, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.* *Instead of focusing on gender preferences, it's more meaningful to evaluate individuals based on their personality traits. By doing so, we move beyond surface-level characteristics and delve into the essence of who a person truly is. Regardless of one's gender preference, the qualities that define a person - their kindness, integrity, empathy, and more - are what truly matter in fostering connections and understanding among individuals.* *Emphasizing personality over gender preference not only promotes inclusivity but also highlights the richness of human diversity. Each individual brings a unique set of qualities and experiences to the table, enriching our interactions and broadening our perspectives. It's important to recognize that everyone deserves to be valued and respected for who they are as individuals, regardless of their gender identity or sexual orientation.* *Ultimately, shifting the focus from gender preference to personality fosters a more inclusive and understanding society. It allows us to celebrate the diverse range of personalities and experiences that make up the human tapestry. In the end, it's about embracing each other's differences and recognizing the inherent worth and dignity of every individual, irrespective of their gender preferences.*

Most of gay are hardworking and succesfull in life.

In-depth interviews are a really good niche to focus on for your channel. I look forward to your interviews as I learn a great deal from each one. Good job!

You will understand soon when you face The Creator.

Daming nega at very shallow dito sa kanilang mga comments. It's true LGBT plus in the Philippines ay tolerated lang and not fully accepted kasi wala ngang LAWS that protects them. If they are fully accepted then men and women should see them as equal eh wala ngang equal work opportunity for them, you are forced to conform according to your gender at birth. Accepted as comedians lang or someone katatawanan. Stuck pa kasi sa tradition at hindi pa fully educated, Dami pang ignorante kaya napag iiwanan ng ibang progressive countries. don`t talk about religion coz God never discriminate and only spreads LOVE.

at least marami pa ring gay sa atin ang mga disente, masayang kasama at mapagmahal sa pamilya, inis na inis lang ako sa mga trangenders dito sa US na super garapal sa kademonyohan

kasi mali

Basta ako ayaw ko sa mga katulad nyo..

True, tolerated but not accepted

I for one support LGBT Q+ Comunity❤❤❤

Pushing your envelope is too much. We have our culture and identity to protect and we don't want to be like the West who are too much with this LGBT mindset and arrogance.

Maaarte lang over kesa sa tunay na babae

Move to a liberal, progressive Western country.
