Pinay Transgender Disgracefully Dance Lewdly to the Philippine National Anthem

In the Philippines, or in any other country. It is important to remember that the flag and the national anthem symbolize traditions and national ideals and expresses the principles of sovereignty and national solidarity, so reverence and respect are a must. It is even on the law.

Everytime the anthem plays, it is required to stand and face the flag, if there is none, they need to face the band or the conductor. Everyone must also need to salute with their right palms over their left chests while the anthem is playing, this makes the netizens rage when this Pinay transgender dance lewdly to the Philippine national anthem.

 

Pinay transgender Maria Sofia Love is known for her self-styled videos that went viral. "Para sa ekonomiya!" "Pak!" and Tuloy and Modeling", these are some of her famous lines on her videos. Before, many netizens enjoy the way she entertains people. But her latest upload sparked outrage among the viewers.


Maria Sofia Love kept quiet in regards to the controversy, but her friend tried to defend her from the bashers. In the video, Sofia Love can be seen wearing a red one-piece bikini while dancing lewdly to the national anthem with her hands on her crotch. Trying to entertain the Filipino masses, this video of her backfires to her. Her friend Andie Montilla decided to speak up for her friend. This is her official statement.

“Lately I’ve been receiving numerous messages pertaining to the recent controversy involving our dearest friend and my mom Maria Sofia Sanchez, I believe it happened unintentionally, if you only knew how kind, sweet, affectionate and patriotic she is especially to our country, The Philippines, what happened last night was merely to bring pure entertainment without realizing the implications of her action, she has brought positive vibes to all our fellow countrymen all over the world since she became Maria Sofia Love so let’s not quickly judge her and condemn her for this wrong doing, and if in any reason she has crossed the boundaries, in behalf of all her concerned friends, we would like to extend our apology to everyone offended by it…let’s spread love not hate!”

Many netizens wants Sofia to issue a public apology, and suffer the consequences for her actions. House Bill 5224 warns the anthem shall not be played and sung preceding events of mere recreation, amusement or entertainment purposes, except on the following occasions:

• international competitions where the Philippines is the host or has a representative
• national or local sports competitions
• during the “signing off” and “signing on” of radio and television broadcasting stations
• before the initial and last screening of films and before the opening of theater performances
• other occasions as may be allowed by the NHCP.

House Bill 5224 will impose penalties should the provisions not be followed, among them a fine of not less than P50,000 but not exceeding P100,000.
