That is my belief and nobody can change that." E di patas na ^_^<br /><br />I'm also a member of the LGBT community. I am gay and don't even care If I am called Sir or Ma'm or referred to as He or She wag lang it. Ibang usapan na yon. For me, I would really really insist to be called female is when at least I've taken female hormones/antiandrogens and evident na yung effects nya saka pag naka sex reassignment surgery na ko para pag ininsist ng prof or kung sinuman na tawagin akong He ay ipipilit ko talaga hanggang san man makarating na She talaga ako at wala na kayong magagawa. Para sa kin lang naman.<br /><br />And para sa mga nagcocondemn ng mga LGBT people, kung si Jesus nga our Lord & Savior (Im Christian actually and gay, bago ba?) hinding hindi kinondemn ang gay people kayo pa kaya na tao lang. Anong karapatan nyo? (hindi po ko galit. Kahit tinatapon na tayo ng buhay sa impyerno ng mga anti-gay people we have no right to do evil against them. And for us LGBT people, mahalin natin ang mga anti-gays kung di nila kaya tayong mahalin. Love our enemies. Turn the other cheek. Bless those who mistreat you. To all the LGBT people who have been rejected, mistreated, hurt, etc. Read the Gospels, learn about Jesus make Him your strength.<br />If the world rejects you isipin nyo na nauna ng nireject si Jesus kesa sa inyo.<br /><br />And para sa inyo na anti-gays read the Gospels din twice, thrice hanggang maopen ang hearts & minds nyo (di po ko galit...peace)<br /><br />Jesus loves gay and straight people.

The incident is only a result of the principal problem of the lack of policies that recognize the rights of transsexuals. It is because of this that people find it easy to disregard the gender identity of people such as Ms. Gercio. <br />I think the creation of policies should never be influenced by religious dogmas and should be based on what there actually IS. It is a fact that there are people who identify as belonging to a different gender than what society expects of them according to their biological sex. It is also a fact that they feel disrespected when others ignore their established gender identity and insist on the 'socially accepted' gender that is 'consistent' with their bodily structure. <br />It is absolutely unfair to fail to legally recognize the existence of such people and deny them their choices and their rights just because they do not conform to societal norms.<br />Moreover, it is downright discriminatory to challenge the implementation of rules that would allow the protection of transgender rights on the grounds that a particular religion doesn't allow it. It means unjustly imposing one religion's rules on everyone, even those who do not subscribe to it. <br />In this matter, I support Ms. Hender Gercio and transgender rights. On a broader scale, I fight for equality and respect and the death of all forms of discrimination.maxxhttp://kisscurl.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515463931520851195.post-25685672980449008862011-03-03T01:48:16.710+08:002011-03-03T01:48:16.710+08:00Hi anonymous,

It is time that we have policies that will protect the students and accord them a learning environment that is conducive to intellectual growth. And that i think is the essence of the complaint letter. For academic institutions, which should be void of religious bigotry, to implement policies that will protect students from bullying, and yes, allow them to use pronouns that identify their genders.moodyhttp://upbabaylan.blogspot.com/2011/03/no-compromise-for-human-rights-by.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515463931520851195.post-91095584766568836272011-03-03T00:17:39.233+08:002011-03-03T00:17:39.233+08:00bakit ganun, kung makapagsalita si Hender parang s...bakit ganun, kung makapagsalita si Hender parang siya lang ang may HUMAN RIGHTS?<br /><br />Eh paano yung rights ni Prof. Del Corro?<br /><br />And as I can understand from reading all related posts to this, parang lumalabas, na si Hender ang nag-iimpose, hindi ang Prof. <br /><br />Eh kung sa klase naman pala hindi naman pala pinipilit ang lahat ng students na tumulad sa teacher sa pagmaintain ng male pronouns, eh di hindi imposing ang Prof.<br /><br />This has been blown out of proportion.

Hender consented to this because she went on and gave her opinion. Don't tell me hindi na foresee ni Hender na along those lines ang lalabas sa bibig ng professor? And it was well-established that the conversation was between two adults speaking their minds. I highly doubt that that was the first time Hender heard about homosexuality-is-a-sin blah blah (I don't believe such thing as well, ano na lang ako ngayon makasalanan din dahil I'm gay??? AMP!)) but that's her belief. Hender may disagree with the professor (fuck yeah, I disagree as well) but she should have taken it with a grain of salt. <br /><br />Naguguluhan lang din ako kase bakit the student was so determined to have the professor persecuted, based on how I see it, hindi naman sya sini-single out ng professor or wasn't even made to feel different or bad sa class because of her (I have no problem calling Hender her) preference. Bakit hindi nya i-join yung mga kaklase nya? Dahil lang ba yung professor ang may supposed power sa class? Hindi ba "bigoted" din yun mga kaklase nya kase I highly doubt na isang beses lang sya tinawag na "il/lui/Monsieur"? <br /><br />Ito sobransg chorvang thought lang, kung Muslim ba 'yung professor, may ganitong issue din ba? Hindi kaya sa sobrang aversion ng mga tao sa Christianity (because, let's admit it, the Catholic Church isn't that popular sa mga taong nakakaintindi ng pamamalakad ng gobyerno) kaya na-si-single out lahat sa umbrella nito?<br /><br />I don't personally know the student nor the professor, but as far as I know (because I know some professors from the department, pro and against the professor in question), most people are being too harsh in calling names. Sa totoo lang, when I first read Hender's letter, inis na inis ako kase I don't think anyone deserves such treatment especialy in UP. Pero we must always make sure to practice cross examination in every issue. Baka may iba pang side sa storya na 'to? Wag lang tayo masyadong stubborn na mag-seek ng ibang information and be blinded by this public trial and condemnation.<br /><br />Again, if we don't recognize that some people STILL believe in "mundane" (for some people) things such as religion and call them bigoted, we are as bigoted as well whether we like it or not.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515463931520851195.post-63698866781199021942011-02-28T00:45:07.744+08:002011-02-28T00:45:07.744+08:00Well, it's easier to pass judgment whenever on...Well, it's easier to pass judgment whenever only one side of the story is given. I just hope we all understand that part of UP's diversity is the existence of people with traditional beliefs. I know it's more of an unwritten 'virtue' in the university that most people have aversion towards organized religion but the moment we do not let them practice what they hold as true, we are bigoted as well. We deny them of their existence. I being a member of the LGBT community as well do not think that this is an issue against LGBT. Language plays a very tricky part in this issue. One person's opinion is another person's bigotry. It is easy to claim that we are being discriminated or being the subject of hostility and animosity in any situation. But it is difficult to prove such claims as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515463931520851195.post-86085062796915108732011-02-27T21:50:28.586+08:002011-02-27T21:50:28.586+08:00Michelle:

They are free to address Ms. Gercio as 'she', and do address her as such. Ms. Del Corro merely said that she herself, as an evangelical Christian, could not do so. Therefore, no imposition took place on her part. If anything, Ms. Gercio is actually the one who is imposing her beliefs on her, as she wants the university to COMPEL her to address her as 'she' even if it is in violation of her beliefs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515463931520851195.post-82739004171792536212011-02-27T21:05:45.023+08:002011-02-27T21:05:45.023+08:00"My pronouns are MY pronouns.

Kapag ba nag-undergo na ang isang lalaki ng sex change (as in<br />from penis to artificial vagina)<br />and there's this mindset that<br />"I'm now a female" does that REALLY<br />make her a female? Pano kung gusto kong maging ibon? Syempre i'll put on artificial wings and set my mind that "I'm now a bird." Does that REALLY make me a bird?<br /><br />2.) Para lang ba sa mga LGBT ang<br />justice and equality? What are those by the way? Because if they<br />clamor for the acquisition of those two, then they must<br />really know what those mean. What<br />is it then? <br /><br />3.) Sa palagay niyo ba nagiging<br />fair kayo kay Ms. del Corro<br />by giving comments on this issue<br />publicly without hearing her side?<br />Nakausap niyo man lang ba siya<br />personally? Is that being rational<br />and just? Is there a balance in<br />hearing only one side?<br /><br />4.) Sinong magsasabi na si Hender<br />lang ang totoo at natatanging <br />nawawalan ng karapatan sa issue<br />na ito? At sinong magsasabi na si<br />Hender lang ang tama sa lahat<br />ng beliefs niya? Kasi when you<br />agree that Hender is ABSOLUTELY<br />correct, meaning mali na ang<br />belief ng maraming tao sa mundo.<br />Talaga bang ganon ka-tama si <br />Hender para i-mali ang paniniwala<br />ng nakararami? Is that rational<br />and ethical to think? <br /><br />5.) Tumingin ba muna kayo sa salamin bago kayo nagcomment dito?<br />At kung ginawa niyo man, anong<br />sabi ng salamin, sabi ba perpekto<br />kayo?<br /><br />please answer my questions.<br />simpleng tanong lang naman yan.<br />Most are answerable by yes or no.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515463931520851195.post-77662505945675731372011-02-26T11:45:51.072+08:002011-02-26T11:45:51.072+08:00"favoring religion doesn't in any way com..."favoring religion doesn't in any way compromise humanity. why? because religion - at least Christianity in my world - is all about the betterment of humanity. religion exists for US, not for anything else."<br /><br />Really?

That she is Christian does not automatically make her opinion and actions right.

No. 174689, promulgated last October 22, 2007.<br /><br />Justice Renato C. Corona, speaking for the Court, asked rhetorically in his ponencia, “When is a man a man and when is a woman a woman? In particular, does the law recognize the changes made by a physician using scalpel, drugs and counseling with regard to a person’s sex? May a person successfully petition for a change of name and sex appearing in the birth certificate to reflect the result of a sex reassignment surgery?”<br /><br />(read the whole article in http://famli.blogspot.com/2007/11/can-man-who-had-sex-change-operation.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515463931520851195.post-68719420854854654862011-02-23T21:42:02.154+08:002011-02-23T21:42:02.154+08:00a human male should be addressed as such, the same...a human male should be addressed as such, the same way every single thing in this world is. unfortunately, we do not have a choice on what we are. i'm a human. i may rather be a bird that flies, but i do not have a choice. i'm a human being. and i should be addressed as such. you are a human male. it is but politeness and respect to address you as such. i respect the decision of homosexuals, but you cannot make me do anything in favor of that belief. i will not judge, nor will i point fingers at them, and i will not force them to do anything against their will and what they believe is acceptable. shouldn't you express the same respect for us? we believe that what you are doing is wrong. so why do you force us to address you as if we condone it? it is against our beliefs. so please, respect that.<br /><br /><br /><br />and no, please do not drag God's name in that manner. we do not know what His will is exactly. but we, with our level of intelligence, should not presume to know His thoughts and decisions. only from the words from the Bible itself should we judge Him, not from our professors, not even from our pastors. we are intelligent beings. we are given the Bible to think ourselves, and not let the actions of some people be what Christianity is all about. read it, and not once did it say that anyone who disobeys it be stoned to death.<br /><br />and what exactly is a university? is it a place where we can just do what we want for the sake of learning and expressing ourselves? i don't really know. but i do know that UP should be an institution that stands up to what is right. politically right? how do you decide what is politically right? because the western people consider it as such? or because it is our choice that doesn't hurt anybody? by how much will we stretch the boundaries of our world to insist on our opinions and beliefs being right? <br /><br />favoring religion doesn't in any way compromise humanity. why? because religion - at least Christianity in my world - is all about the betterment of humanity. religion exists for US, not for anything else.<br /><br />i probably am not making sense, as i am just ranting and all. i surely have grammatical errors in every sentence which will shame UP forever. but i'm just trying to - heck, i don't know - state my opinion in the matter, i guess.<br /><br /><br /><br />and finally, to those "CHRISTIANS" who dare judge homosexuals. God loves homosexuals. heck, He sent His son to die for them as a sacrifice. what homosexuals do is what we all do - sin. we choose what is not His will - some not as obviously or extremely, some more so. yet the degree of our sins do not matter. the point is - we sin. so please, let us not judge them and respect them. do not judge, and you will not be judged.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515463931520851195.post-64715380530742972032011-02-23T18:45:52.536+08:002011-02-23T18:45:52.536+08:00I understand how they could not REQUIRE your teach...I understand how they could not REQUIRE your teacher to address you as female, but under no circumstance should they have the right to conclude that your rights are moot because transgendered people aren't directly acknowledged in the university policy. <br /><br />Perhaps you could get your classmates to address you and continually address you as female. I have no right to say anything about your action, you have every right to speak out about your identity, but personally I'm more passive-aggressive, and the approach I'd take would be to allow the teacher to call you as she will but draw the line if she tries to convince others to address you in male pronouns; that is not her right. <br />She has her beliefs, but as you said, she cannot influence her students based on them. <br />My opinion doesn't really matter in this case, but I'm with you in that this sort of disrespect for someone's identity is unacceptable in a supposedly enlightened institution.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515463931520851195.post-86529744391917883702011-02-23T13:58:21.939+08:002011-02-23T13:58:21.939+08:00Nakakalungkot na sa loob pa ng UP nangyari ito, ku...Nakakalungkot na sa loob pa ng UP nangyari ito, kung saan dapat ay may kalayaan at pantay-pantay na pagtrato sa bawat nilalang.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
