i don't feel pinoy enough because i was born in canada and can't speak ilocano, let alone tagalog, i don't feel trans enough because i'm "too feminine" to be transmasc. i'm too queer and too lost to fit in with my pinoy peers, and i'm too femme to be a man.
i honestly can't win.

Sup, I go by Revella and I'm Filipino-American. My native tongue is Ilocano but I don't know how to speak it 😭 I can understand some words tho. I'm mainly a self-taught artist and I just love to create even though I make a lot of mistakes :B
