#GayaSaPelikulaFinale: Every child deserves a Tito Santi in their lives


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Gaya sa Pelikula peaked at the top spot on Twitter Trend Topics an hour after its finale episode premiere.

Related words such as #SOGIEEQUALITYNOW, Season 2, Vlad, Anna, Hanggang Sa Muli and Tito Santi also trended.

The scene where I cried the most: Karl admitting he's gay & he loves Vlad to Tito Santi(The uncle whom he trust the most.)

It wasn't easy, he's afraid. 

Someone out there feels the same too. 

Karl, you're braver than everyone else thought.

What Tito Santi said got me right straight through the heart. The feels were too real. It was a kind of pain every gay guy fears of. 

Grabe no. Every gay person out there would wish they had a Tito Santi growing up.  They wish they had someone to tell them it's okay to be gay. They wish they had someone to guide them. 




I really loved how Karl was given a chance in #GayaSaPelikulaFinale to actually tell his own story. I loved how it unfolded right before our eyes--when he came out to Tito Santi and Vlad, to starting to pursue his dreams, which is to make films. 

Sobrang relatable nung sinabi ni Tito Santi na his achievements are invalidated just because he's gay. it hurts because some queer compensate for their sogie by becoming achievers only for those achievements to be in vain because of what they were trying to compensate for.

Really felt Tito Santi and Karl's moment. I know the feeling of being so afraid and also know how other people think of gays, with certain limitations. But like what Tito Santi said "nasaktan lang ako pero nasaakin padin lahat ng achievements ko" 

Pero di bale. Thank you sa gay twitter sa totoo lang kasi ito yung nag educate at patuloy na nag eeducate sa kanila. You make them brave.






Tito Santi takes the prize for making us cry. Pay respect to your elders. They had it much harder than us, and yet they chose to pave the way for us.

"Love is really unbeatable. No one knows when will it gonna come. You'll just suddenly realize that "Oh! I'm in love."

The way karl confesses his feelings to tito santi is the bravest things he made. I said what I said.

Tito Santi was right—how some of the peeps sa community tries so hard for achievements just to compensate for their SOGIE.

The fact na people invalidate their achievements JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT HETERO.

I have so many LGBT friends and I know, in one way or another, naranasan din nila yung ganoong klase ng struggle—not being good enough despite doing your best kasi hindi ka straight, being afraid to embrace kung sino ka at mahalin kung sino yung taong gusto mo.

It's now up to us to ensure a better future for the queer kids that will come after us. Fight. Walang patitinag.

I wish the people behind #GayaSaPelikula explore the life and trials of the Tito Santis of the world. Sana next time ang mga Tito Santis naman ang mabigyan ng spotlight.
