FromTheArchives: Kataluna Enriquez is a reminder that the trans community is just as diverse as the human race. 🏳️⚧️ | via philstarlife
As an Asian American and trans woman, Kataluna has gone not only through the wringer to represent not just her state, but the LGBTQ+ community as well. But she wants to make it clear: being trans is not a one-size-fits-all descriptor for the diverse community.
Breaking into the pageant bubble may be hard enough, but it's proved to be a bigger challenge for trans women. After all, Miss USA only opened the competition for trans women like Kataluna very recently. Miss Philippines Earth says it does not allow trans women in pageant; Miss World Philippines says it is 'trans-inclusive'As for embracing her Asian roots, Kataluna has been transparent in talking about racism and the unfortunate wave of Asian hate that has been plaguing America since the COVID-19 pandemic.
