Pride month may be over but that doesn't mean that our mission for inclusivity ends there.
In this special comeback episode, we talked with Gio Potes (he/him) and Ms. Anna Villanueva (Ms./Siya), from the University of the Philippines Diliman Gender Office, to get an in-depth view on the importance of understanding SOGIESC (btw, everyone has it!) and why the SOGIE Bill should be a priority bill in the Philippines.
(Tune in next episode for the discussion on how to talk to kids about SOGIESC and how young should they start learning about sex and gender)

Let's talk about the Menstrual Leave debate habang mainit-init pa ang topic! In this conversation Ninai and Toni talked about the menstrual leave bills filed by the Congress - it's benefits, drawbacks, and rooms for improvement.
"We keep going back to the idea that these bills are done and written in good faith however there are still a number of unintended negative implications for menstruators, such as perpetuating SEXIST BELIEFS and ATTITUDES that contribute to menstrual stigma and gender stereotypes which also affects our already GENDERED wage gap."

Did you know that, according to research, endometriosis is often hard to diagnose because it shares symptoms with several other conditions? As a result, patients may endure the wrong treatments without seeing any improvement. Average delays range from 6 to 11 years, often despite disabling and ongoing symptoms, with symptoms being “treated” for years despite patients not having received a definitive diagnosis. More about this in this conversation with Doctor Christine Joyce Maningas-Omolida, MD, FPOGS, FPSRM.
