SOGIE BILL

Sogie Bill or Anti Discrimination Bill aims to protect the on the basis of sexual
orientation, gender identity and expression. Sexual Orientation described to whom a person is
sexually oriented. Gender identity is the personal sense of one's own gender. Expression your
way on how to express yourselves by cloth, action, and the way you talk. It will help the
person, people who are being bullied and to avoid discrimination to each other.

It is for the protections on the basis of an individual’s sexual orientation and gender
identity. The Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Expression (SOGIE) Equality bill is a
piece of legislation which aims to protect members of the LGBTQ+ community from different
forms of discrimination enacted against them. It has a big impact to those people who fully
support the LGBT.

Aims to protect members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queers
(LGBTQ’s) community from all forms of discrimination namely. According to Ryan Borja
Capitulo, an obstetrician and gynecologist shared his views on the bill that seeks to criminalize
discrimination against persons identifying as members of the LGBTQ community. Yes, I am
an LGBT. And yes, I strongly oppose Senate Bill 935 (Anti-Discrimination Bill) and House Bill
4982 (SOGIE Equality Bill) for three reasons. Ryan Borja also cited some republic act to
support his statement Republic Act No. 7877 “Anti-Sexual Harassment Act of 1995,” including
the (8) Universal Declaration of Human Rights. There are victims of discrimination because of
their height, but do we need an Anti-Short Stature Discrimination Act?
 We do not need an Anti-Discrimination or SOGIE Equality law because Filipinos are
inherently accepting of lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgender. Our society is innately
tolerant of LGBTs. Proof of this would be the many Filipino LGBTs who are very successful in
their respective fields: business, trade, media, education, fashion, healthcare, law, I.T.,
science and technology, arts, show business and even politics.

There are so many LGBTQ fighting for their rights of being a member of LGBTQ. We
should respect their decision in life who they really want to be because no one can stop them
the only thing we need is to support and respect them
