Miss U? are you still there??

All these brouhahas surrounding Ms. U is really becoming a global trend not only in social media sites but also in the local news papers.

Basically, this is a socio-cultural and business issue.

1) Socio-Cultural

Pro Transgenders:

a. it's a "contest" for beauty and poise. not a beauty contest that is entirely on the service of motherhood, or natural born uterus and breast.

b. long overdue for equal civil rights of transgenders and other sexes.

c. trough various rapid change in the human race, it's a high time to allow such 3rd sex to enter.

Anti-Transgender

a. Ms U. in it's very own nature is for natural born women. it was formed to celebrate womanhood and her capability to nurture and become a future mother.

b. it will eat public attention and media hype in favor of the Transgenders. naturally, we are more curios on the controversial part, and it is in human nature to be more fascinated on what the media is attending to.

c. Ms. U is formed to alleviate woman and promote their social rights and address injustices. trough beauty, men will be able to respect them and give equality.


Let us not forget why Ms. U is created:

1) to alleviate women's status in the society.
2) promote gender equality (women are capable of conceiving, women's role in society is huge since they are the nurturer of the society, etc.)
3) avenue to empower women.

in such media hype and attention, let us not forget that the owner is mr. donald trump ( a businessman ) who by nature wants to earn by all the media attention that he is getting.

women in nature are marginalized by which men are capable of abuse especially by patriarchal society. in Catholicism: God, Jesus Christ, the Apostles are all men, they are strong and yet forgiving and have respect for women. Mary as mother of Jesus, she is strong, loving, caring, and without sin.

In religion, of any gender, they are equal Jesus is not made into reality without a woman which is Mary.

in this analysis, men can not live without woman. it is just frustrating how many ego centered men interpret their religion in such patriarchal way.

i don't think Islam countries and predominantly Catholic countries will like the decision of Ms. U.

In the case of Philippine society, this may go problematic.

1) Religion and Justice System

1.1. RH Bill is long overdue. this was created for the protection of women. it is for their health and the health of the unborn baby. men do not conceive, and do not give painful child labor. they may say that they understand however, they really do not know the feeling of women going trough the sufferings.

1.2 patriarchal society, we may be one of the countries that have good provisions on the 3rd sex, however we do not deny that majority of people are not open in such legal rights. we may accept them in public appearance but i think not on the formal avenues.

1.3 Judicial system, how can we save the 3rd sex from various victim crimes if the chief justice himself can not save himself. also, the the very ancient movement of the judicial process, we may have a hard time on addressing their needs.

People may be joining a bandwagon due the different headlines and news that surface the world.

also, media is a very important tool to bring education to the public. media is a check and balance between the civil society and government, but it has become also a problem when it comes to bringing responsible journalism.

But i still fight for all equal rights of all gender and race.

i'm pro rh bill, i am pro gay marriage (civil only) gay marriage should not be allowed when it comes to religion since in every nature of religion: 3rd sex is not allowed. but still, recognizing them in the society is sufficient enough.

let us not judge but understand all the meaning and essences that is brought in our table.
