Gloria Diaz said that she is not in favor of transwomen, married women, and single mothers joining Miss Universe, pointing out that they should establish their own pageants instead. | HMallorcaINQ
“Dapat may sariling concept like Mrs. Universe, may Lesbian Universe, may Tr*nny Universe. There is room for so much [candidates in pageantry]. Dapat may sarili silang category. Kasi sa Mrs. Universe naman, maraming maganda diyan,” she added.
“Eh ngayon, nakaka-28 ka na, pwede pa rin eh. It’s hard. I think it’s a very new idea na sa akin, not very acceptable. Dapat kanya-kanya, at least. It gives people more chances kasi you’re representing the country eh what if may mas magandang babae or mas magandang trans,” she further added. Despite her controversial stand, Diaz clarified that she’s not “homophobic” and that she “loves” the LGBTQ community.“I love the [LGBTQ] community. Pero dapat kanya-kanya,” she said, as she also reiterated that Miss Universe is meant for single women only. “For ‘Miss Universe,’ dapat walang anak, diba? Kasi ang labo naman n’un,” she added.
Diaz was the first Filipina to be crowned Miss Universe following her amusing but practical answer to a question about a man landing from the moon. Following her reign, Margarita Moran, Pia Wurtzbach, and Catriona Gray also won the title in 1973, 2015, and 2018, respectively.
