3 DAYS LEFT! Join the Rappler+ exclusive briefing on March 14 and learn about the dangerous and false narratives that have been peddled around the SOGIE bill, and how these impact the LGBTQ+ community in real life. More details here:
MANILA, Philippines – Is there hope for the Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, and Expression and Sex Characteristics Equality Act, better known as the SOGIE bill, to be passed by the 19th Congress?
The controversial bill has been languishing in the Philippine legislature for more than two decades as key lawmakers allied with religious organizations have succeeded in blocking the measure. In recent years, online hate and disinformation have also entered the picture and made the fight to pass the legislation even more difficult.
How did the anti-SOGIE communities online exponentially grow from then? What are the dangerous and false narratives that have been peddled around the bill? How do these impact LGBTQ+ members and advocates in real life?
