NAGSALITA na si Miss Universe Philippines 2021 na si Beatrice Gomez kaugnay sa alegasyong “queerbaiting” o nagkukunwari umanong LGBTQIA+ member.
Ito ay matapos niyang ibandera sa social media na mayroon siyang boyfriend.
Sa pamamagitan ng Instagram, sinagot ni Beatrice ang kumakalat na tsismis patungkol sa tunay niyang sekswalidad.
“For those who questioned my representation of the LGBTQIA+ community during Miss Universe 2021, I have been quiet for years knowing that I have spoken my truth and that I am proud of the breakthrough my representation has brought the country, especially the LGBTQIA+ community as the first openly gay representative of the Philippines,” wika niya sa post.
Kasabay nito ay iginiit niya na siya ay isang “pansexual” na nagkakagusto sa isang tao kahit ano man ang kasarian nito.
Ayon pa kay Beatrice, kahit siya ay may karelasyon na opposite sex ay hindi ibig sabihin na nag-iba na ang kanyang sexual orientation at kampanya para sa LGBTQIA+ community na nag-umpisa pa noong 2015.
“I am pansexual which means I have no regard for a person’s gender, which technically makes me a bisexual as I can be with either sexes,” sey niya sa IG.
Patuloy pa niya, “It isn’t easy to embrace my sexuality especially when it comes with people not accepting me for who I am and experiencing bullying, discrimination, and harassment.”

“It could have been much easier for me to just stay in the closet and have everyone’s support but there I was continuing the fight as my platform got bigger,” dagdag niya.
Nilinaw din ng Cebuana stunner na walang kinalaman ang kanyang kasarian sa kanyang Miss Universe journey.
“It vexes me when people tell me that I just claimed to be a member of the LGBTQIA+ community to hype up my reign in 2021 when my representation of the LGBTQIA+ community has been an ongoing advocacy way before I even came across pageants,” lahad niya sa post.
Aniya pa, “You can continue to judge me. I know my truth and I will continue to celebrate Pride Month every year.”

Nagpaabot naman ng suporta ang ilang kapwa-beauty queens kay Beatrice at ilan lamang sa mga nagkomento ay sina Michelle Dee, Angelique Manto, at Maureen Wroblewitz
“MY QUEEN [heart emojis],” saad ni Michelle na nag-come out bilang bisexual noong Mayo matapos koronahang Miss Universe Philippines 2023.
Kung matatandaan, si Beatrice ang first openly LGBTQIA+ representative ng Pilipinas sa Miss Universe pageant.
Nagtapos siya bilang Top 5 sa nasabing kompetisyon at ang nagwagi ay ang pambato ng India na si Harnaaz Sandhu.
