Episode 50: Debatable Open Octofinals - Gender with René Gandeza

4:30 - Motion 1: On October 15, 2020, Col. Angela Rejano has been named Chief of Malabon Police, and the first female police chief in the history of the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO). TH, as Filipino feminists, regrets the promotion of Col. Rejano. 24:19 - Motion 2: 1. Shipping - short for relationshipping, is the act of rooting for romantic relationship between two fictional characters, often by a loyal subset of viewers/readers of said fiction e.g. Johnlock - Sherlock Holmes and John Watson from Sherlock Holmes, Merthur - Merlin and Arthur from Merlin, etc. 2. Canon - as in literary canon can be narrowly defined as that which is accepted as authentic, or official in the context of the literary piece/writing of a particular author, which are considered by scholars and critics in general to be the genuine creation of that particular author. This is based on some already deduced rules intended to be applied on the future pieces in the same genre. THBT shipping of non-canonical queer characters is a step back for genuine queer representation in media. 46:25 - Motion 3: Senate Bill No. 1934 or the proposed SOGIESC-based Anti-Discrimination Act was passed early this month (December 2020) by the Committee on Women, Children, Family Relations and Gender Equality chaired by Senator Hontiveros. THBT LGTBQI Filipino Movement and its allies should coopt religious groups in the fight to pass the SOGIESC-based Anti-Discrimination Act.
