"I was that golden child that would walk up the stage in every single recognition day. I always believed I had to be straight in every aspect of my life. Not just my sexuality, but also my grades, just so that I could be loved."

"For Aro-Ace people, our flag is primarily composed of gray. What does it mean that in that rainbow, we still exist in that liminal space?"

"One day, we’ll all become memories. You’ll want people to look back at you and remember that that person was so full of joy, so full of love. This reflects who I am today. I love my friends. I love everyone. I love my family, even if they don’t love me back necessarily."

"The first heartbreak I ever went through is when we were going back to school, I was told to cut all of my hair off. Coming from a catholic school, a lot of people can relate to the feeling of having your identity stolen from you."

"May time na hindi talaga ako nag-iidentify with anything feminine. Parang nakaka-cringe yun sakin. Pero may mga times na gusto ko rin maramdaman maging maganda."

"Kada tinatanong ako “Lalake ka ba o babae?” ang sinasabi ko nalang “Kahit anong gusto mo” Kasi that was easier. Mas ok pa sakin na kayo nalang mag-decide kung sino ako tapos ako nalang mag-aadjust."

✨ Trans Awareness Week ✨

From November 13 to 19, we stand in solidarity with our trans siblings. This week is about education, visibility, and advocacy for the transgender community—celebrating the beauty of every trans person and acknowledging the strength it takes to live openly and authentically.

Trans voices deserve to be heard, supported, and uplifted every day. 🌈 Let's use this week to foster understanding, challenge stereotypes, and fight for equality.

Together, let's create a future where everyone feels safe and celebrated for who they are. 💖💙🤍
