Nilinaw ni Miel Pangilinan na hindi siya lesbian.
Marami kasing nagkaroon ng maling impression na siya ay isang tomboy.
Pero klaro na queer siya, gay, na una na niyang inamin.
“This is incorrect, I am not a lesbian, nor have I claimed to be.
“I stated specifically on the post that I am queer— and unless stated otherwise don’t just make assumptions that I’m a lesbian based on the fact that I came out or that I held a pride flag. Please inform yourselves. If I was a lesbian I would have said I was a lesbian.
“I am queer. queer ≠ lesbian. If you’re going to inform people, inform yourself first. and at least give my post a proper read-through before making a post about it. It’s pride month. If you’re going to make a post reporting about a person’s whole IDENTITY, I should hope that you get it right. please. there are more identities than lesbian and gay lol,” pagkontra ni Miel sa mga nagsulat na tomboy siya.
Dagdag niya pa :
“I also don’t NEED to talk about the boundaries and extents and specifics of my attraction/identity. It’s extremely personal and the fact that it’s something I need to clarify despite the including the statement that I am queer in my post is just upsetting,” aniya.
“Identity is personal and if you’re going to report on it please stick to the source lmaoo.”
Bakit nga naman hindi mag-google ang mga nagsulat.
Ayon urbandictionary.com : Originally meant to describe something as unusual or strange. Became a derogatory word to describe homosexuals. More recently, it has been reclaimed by non-heterosexuals as a word used to describe themselves. Queer can now be used to describe homosexuals, bisexuals, and transgendered people. In scholarly studies the word queer is also used to describe those who practice unconventional sex (e.g. bondage, etc.), therefore even heterosexuals can sometimes be defined as queer.
