“Why am I saying this Manny? Dahil gusto kong malaman mo na hindi sila tumigil sa kalalaban para sa kanilang mga karapatan. At kami sa LGBT community, hindi rin kami titigil hanggang sa dulo ng buhay namin, hanggang kamatayan ipaglalaban namin ang aming karapatan to equality and to dignity. Dahil ninakaw ito sa amin.”
In addition, Boy lambasted Manny by saying that the boxing champ does not, in any way, own his humanity.
“I am not begging Manny Pacquiao for dignity. I am not begging you for respect. I am not begging you for my humanity because you do not own my humanity. Akin iyon. That’s my birthright.”
The veteran host also pointed out various political and religious leaders who recognize and respect the LGBT community namely US President Barack Obama, former US Senator Hillary Clinton, and the highly respected leader of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis. Boy figuratively confronted Manny and asked him, of all people, who is he to say such degrading comments on LGBT members.
