It’s a confusing time to be a woman in the Philippines. On the one hand, Filipino women have been put into positions of power. On the other hand, the expectations are still the same, raised to want and pursue the ultimate Filipina millennial monomyth: marry a man, give birth, buy a 2-bedroom house, and start a family. Any other way invites ridicule or worse, pity.
What’s dating like for a millennial Filipina? Why is Romance such a maligned and antagonistic Literary genre? Why are the power dynamics between men and women during sex never in favor of women?
There are no answers to these questions in this collection of personal essays, only accusations and confessions and a guileless, lingering hope that maybe it can get better for women if they keep fighting for their right to be here—and be whatever they want.
