SINERMONAN ni Miss Trans Global 2020 st isa sa mga LGBTQIA+ advocate na si Mela Habijan ang dating aktres na si Ellen Adarna ukol sa “gender diversity”.
Ito ay kaugnay sa nag-viral na post ng asawa ni Derek nang tanungin siya kung ano ang kanyang masasabi ukol sa “situationship”.
Sa kanyang X (dating Twitter), ibinahagi ni Mela ang kanyang saloobin hinggil sa naging pahayag ni Ellen sa pagiging “masakit sa bangs”at “confusing” ng iba’t ibang pronouns ngayon ng LGBTQIA+ community.
“Dear Ellen (and to those who currently think like her), I welcome your thoughts. And while it is confusing, a true compassionate and respectful person will try to learn and understand,” panimula ng “Sparks Camp” host.
Hinalintulad pa nga ni Mela ito sa asignaturang Matematika.
“Parang Math. It is confusing but we try to learn it because it will teach us the value of logic. It also allows us how to embrace problems and finding solutions.

“Above all, appreciating Math, no matter how confusing it is, let’s us discover that there’s no single or absolute solution to a problem,” pagbabahagi ni Mela.
Aniya, gaano pa man kasakit sa bangs ang pag-intindi sa gender diversity, hindi naman ito makakasakit sa isang tao.
Sey ni Mela, “Understanding that there is gender diversity — kahit gaano man ito kasakit sa bangs mo — won’t hurt you. But it will help you gain a deeper appreciation of human life.
“I hope you become more open, be patient, and be compassionate of people who are not like you. [heart and rainbow emoji]
“Because if your kid happens to tell you that they are non-binary, I think you will try your best to learn.”
Giit rin ni Mela, na ang “ako”, “ikaw”, at “siya” ay mga non-binary pronouns.
Umani naman ng samu’t saring reaksyon mula sa madlang pipol ang pa-open letter ni Miss Trans Global 2020 sa dating sexy actress.
“Hi Mela, good thing she didn’t say anything worse. She just said she’s confused (nothing else) but you are also right, she has to learn and understand so she doesn’t get confused,” saad ng isang netizen.
Comment naman ng isa, “While I understand entirely your point, I think there was nothing wrong with what Ellen said. She’s just confused by it. im solely basing it on the screenshots, not the video. Did she say anything more?”
“Sana i-respeto niyo rin yung paniniwala namin na there’s just only XX and XY. Nothing else, when you die and get rotten in the woods, your pathologist who will handle your remains will only indicate a male or a female in their report not binary,” sey naman ng isa.
