im sorry huhu but when i hear the word “filipino,” i don’t automatically think of a masculine-presenting person bc our language isn’t built that way 😭 respectfully, if you can’t see it beyond a gendered term, you might be missing the cultural and historical context behind it 🙏

people are allowed to critique patriarchal bias in language, that's not colonization. is it so beyond our culture to be misogynistic?

@oikawa_png Mahal ("Love") is the most common term we use to call our lover/partner, but there's still a long list that feels "deeper" than mahal 🥺

Filipino (especially Tagalog) is naturally gender-neutral.
Siya → she/he
Niya → her/his
Sa kan’ya → to him/her
Anak → son/daughter
Kapatid → brother/sister
Masyadong sanay sa kultura niyong nakabase ang kasarian sa pagpapalit ng isa o iilang mga salita. Hindi gano’n dito.

The only reason 'Filipino' sounds masculine to you is because you are looking at it through a Romance or English lens. To us, it’s just a label for a person with no gender attached-

you should reflect on why the masculine is considered the neutral

Real Filipino: *states our truth*
Someone who's not Filipino at all: YOU'RE WRONG, THIS INFORMATION IS INACCURATE!!
Unfortunately, a lot of non-asians do this to asians. They always think they know better. Ew.

Why the hell is there a none-Filipino on my timeline mansplaining being Filipino to Filipinos by using Wikipedia as their source instead of believing us the people

my friend just shared this to me, so apparently problematic is not the term for “pro-shipper” i thought this could be helpful for us since we’re in a fandom🙏🏻
