Veteran Journalist Jay Sonza disliked what Senator Risa Hontiveros said during the hearing on the SOGIE (Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity and Expression) Equality Bill.

At that hearing, Hontiveros likened transwomen to real women. A transwoman is an individual who was born male but considers herself a female.


“Gusto kolang i-affirm at this point na totoong babae ang mga transwomen. So si Miss Naomi, Miss Gretchen,” said Hontiveros.



According to Sonza, Hontiveros can be a participant in the contest for no-brain. “Risa is a classic example of a prospective contestant for the Battle of the Brainless. she said transwomen are real women… para Na rin niyang sinasabing may menstrual cycle iyong mga bakla,” lambasted Sonza.

Hontiveros said transwomen are real women, she said this after Senator Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa made a comment on the possible consequences of allowing transwomen to use women's restrooms.

Senator Dela Rosa is worried that the lame men might use the opportunity, take advantage and pretend to be a transwoman and do bad things to the real women inside.



Ang sabi ko nga, what if may isang lalaking manyak na mag-pretend na bakla, manilip o mag-exploit… This is not an attack to your group, kundi ine-entertain ko lang ang pahayag ng ibang hindi miyembro ng inyong community, ‘yun totoong babae. Natatakot sila na magkaroon ng ganoong insidente. Paano natin ma-appease ang mga apprehension ng mga straight na babae,” explained Senator Bato.

The SOGIE Bill and the rights of our LGBT Community members have become a major issue after the alleged “discrimination” of transgender Gretchen Diez who was stopped by a janitress from using women's bathroom at a mall in Quezon City.

According to some reports, Hontiveros is one of the authors of the senate version of SOGIE Bill.
