-As a former Kulasa
This specific episode of the Pugad Baboy by Po Medina Jr. comic strip has been in the news for its controversial content. Actually, because of the complaints from readers of Inquirer, the comic strip has been suspended and now the writer has left Inquirer.
I have caught on the news about this specific episode of the Pugad Baboy comic strip from my previous school's facebook group. Since I am also from St. Scholastica's Academy, I cannot ignore the message implied by this. But what I am more interested in is the specificity of the author authenticity of the message. Why was St. Scho singled out from all schools ?
I believe that in whatever school we go, there will always be homosexuals. The society has now change. So why was St. Scho the one chosen to pose as an example? The message may be about homosexuals but the school was pointed out so specifically. If he wanted to relay a message about it why not generalize the term?
I cannot deny the statement of the author. As a Scholastican, I can only argue that not all Kulasa are homosexuals. I am a living proof of that. The Benedictine Sisters also doesn't allow the kulasas to be homosexuals. They are very strict about our attire, walk, and even our haircut. My point is that the comic strip is partly correct and also partly wrong.
This comic strip caught my attention because of the undeniable fact that we now face. There are now homosexuals around us. Now that the issue was raised it cannot be ignored. But afterwards we can all move on and learn a lesson from it.
