Michelle Dee hindi ginamit ang pagiging bisexual para magpapampam sa Miss U
Michelle Dee
NEVER naapektuhan ng kanyang pagiging bisexual ang pagrampa at paglaban ni Michelle Marquez Dee sa Miss Universe 2023.
Wala rin daw kinalaman ang biglaan niyang pag-come out sa publiko sa naging journey niya bilang bet ng Pilipinas sa naturang international pageant.
“The thing with coming out is, it was not a product of thinking it could better my journey. It did not affect my journey.
“If anything the reason I came out was because people tried to take away my story, take away my narrative.

“And the best way to address that is to take back your story. Take back your narrative. Take control,” sabi ni Michelle sa panayam ng media sa naganap na Federation of Filipino Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry, Inc. (FFCCCII).

Sabi pa ng very proud member ng LGBTQIA+ community, “It was an amazing way for me to always empower anybody who is going through the same thing, never allow anyone to take your story away from you.
“And with that representation, at least one person can feel empowered over that,” mariin pa niyang sabi.
Naniniwala rin si Michelle na hindi dapat pinipilit ang pag-come out ng isang tao tungkol sa tunay niyang sexual preference.
“We all function in our own unique timeline, we should not be identified based on sexual orientation. Our individuality is worth so much more than how we label ourselves. Let’s not force people to label themselves.
“My whole journey this year is about authenticity and risking my story and what I had to offer. That is something I did not embrace in my first two chances in the national level but something I embraced this year,” pahayag pa ng Kapuso actress.
Nagpakatotoo lang daw siya sa lahat ng ginawa at na-achieve niya nitong 2023, “Through embracing that short hair, coming out, championing advocacies, it really represents breaking boundaries and changing stereotypes, and empowering as many people that they don’t need to fit a certain mold.
“Everyone should feel the capacity they can be Miss Universe Philippines as well,” sabi pa ni Michelle na mapapanood na rin ngayon sa Kapuso Primetime series na “Black Rider” starring Ruru Madrid, Yassi Pressman, Katrina Halili at marami pang iba.
