Pabatid: Gaganapin bukas, ika-3 ng hapon sa Obligacion, ang Luksang Parangal kay President Janice Sernadilla ng Marina LGBTQIA++ Community ng Baler. Ito ay bilang pagkilala sa kanyang hindi matatawarang dedikasyon, malasakit, at serbisyo sa komunidad. Sama-sama nating alalahanin at parangalan ang kanyang naiambag sa pagpapaunlad at pagkakaisa ng LGBTQIA++ Community.

May mga taong dumaraan lamang sa ating buhay, at mayroon ding nagsisilbing isang ilaw na nagbigay ng kulay at pag-asa sa komunidad.

Bilang Pangulo at isa sa mga nagtatag ng Marina LGBT, hindi lamang siya naging lider, kundi naging kaibigan, kapatid, mentor, at inspirasyon. Sa kanyang sipag, tapang, at malasakit, naitaguyod niya ang boses ng LGBT sa Baler at sa buong Aurora.

Ngayon, isang mabigat na pamamaalam na nag-iwan ng lungkot, ngunit higit sa lahat, nag-iwan ng pamana: isang komunidad na mas matatag, mas buo, at mas makulay.

Sa bawat bahaghari, sa bawat laban para sa pagkakapantay-pantay, at sa bawat ngiti ng mga taong kanyang na-inspire, nariyan si Pres. Janice. Kailanman ay hindi sya huminto para maging boses ng makulay ng komunidad. Isa syang huwaran sa lahat.

Paalam, Pres. Janice. Hindi man namin maririnig muli ang iyong tinig ngunit mananatili kang himig ng tapang at pag-ibig sa puso ng bawat isa. πŸ•ŠοΈ

Rest in Paradise, tita Janice. Maraming nagmamahal sa'yo.

GAY LINGO 101: Language, Identity, and LGBTQIA+ Culture πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ

Alam mo ba na ang gay lingo ay isang malikhaing wika na ginagamit ng maraming miyembro ng LGBTQIA++ community bilang anyo ng self-expression, identity, at minsan, proteksyon?

Hindi lang ito basta "language of the g**s", ito ay isang buhay na wika na may humor, wit, at puso.

EXAMPLES:
Jowa – boyfriend/girlfriend
Hal: β€œGora na kami ng jowa ko sa beach."

Char/Charot – joke lang, di seryoso
Hal: β€œMagpapakasal na ako… charot lang!”

Kyeme/Kyems – filler word; pwede rin ibig sabihing β€œarte” o β€œeksena”
Hal: β€œNagkyeme pa siya, eh gusto rin naman pala!”

Shokot – takot
Hal: β€œShokot ako sa ex mo, gurl. Mukhang war freak!”

Keri/keribels– kaya mo yan; go lang
Hal: β€œLate ka na teh, pero keribels pa rin β€˜yan!”

Gora – go na, alis na
Hal: β€œGora na tayo sa Pride March, mga anek!”

Echos/Echusera – gawa-gawa lang; imbento
Hal: β€œEchusera ka, wala ka naman talagang ka-date!”

BAKIT MAHALAGANG PAG-USAPAN ITO?
βœ” Ang gay lingo ay simbolo ng resilience, nilikha sa panahon ng diskriminasyon bilang code para maprotektahan ang sarili.
βœ” Isa rin itong komunidad-building tool, nagbubuklod ng mga miyembro sa isang masayang, inclusive na paraan.
βœ” At higit sa lahat, ito’y patunay ng creativity at katalinuhan ng LGBTQIA++, na kahit sa gitna ng pagsubok, may kabog pa rin!

Kaya’t imbes na pagtawanan o maliitin, ating kilalanin, pag-aralan, at ipagdiwang ang gay lingo bilang bahagi ng mas malawak na kasaysayan ng pagkakapantay-pantay at karapatang pantao.

Language is love. Language is identity. Language is pride.

Ikaw, anong kwentong Gay Lingo 101 mo? Magbigay pa ng mga halimbawa sa ating comment section para mas maunawaan ng karamihan.

HIV DOESN’T DISCRIMINATE. PEOPLE DO.

Let’s End the Stigma.
Let’s Spread Facts, Not Fear.

FACT: HIV is NOT a β€œgay disease.”

Anyone, regardless of gender, s*xuality, age, or social status can acquire HIV if proper precautions are not taken.

Let’s end the stigma:
"Nakukuha lang ang HIV sa mga bakla.”
Maling-mali ang paniniwalang ito, isang kathang-isip lamang ng mga Homophobic at galit sa LGBTQIA++ Community.

HIV can be transmitted through unprotected s*x, sharing of contaminated needles, or from mother to child during pregnancy or breastfeeding, regardless of s*xual orientation.

Stigma hurts. Silence kills.
Because of fear and discrimination, many people are afraid to get tested or seek help. This worsens the spread and delays early treatment.

What we should do instead:
βœ… Educate ourselves and others
βœ… Promote safe practices and regular testing
βœ… Support those living with HIV without judgment
βœ… Speak out against discrimination

People living with HIV deserve compassion, respect, and access to healthcare, not shame, discrimination or disgust.

Get tested. Get treated. Get informed.
Together, we can build a society that is safe, accepting, and stigma-free.

Health is a right, not a privilege.

Sama-sama tayong magbuklod at magkaisa.
