"This only goes to show how archaic Philippine laws are."

"Madaling magsampa ng kaso sa isang taong naka “offend” ng religious beliefs nang karamihan but meanwhile, wala pa ring karapatan sa mata ng batas ang mga LGBTQIA persons na tinatanggalan ng trabaho, sinasaktan, pinapatay na most often than not, ay dahil din sa religion."

He then asked lawmakers, as to where was the "separation of church and state?"

"Sa inyo, nung paniniwala ninyo ang tinamaan, grabe na kayo makaalma. Ang bilis niyong magsampa ng kaso. Kami, kabuhayan, karapatan, at dignidad ang inaalis ninyo sa amin pero ano, kibit-balikat lang at kailangan lang namin tanggapin at unawain?"

Ice Seguerra, or Cariza Yamson Seguerra in real life, is a Filipino actor, singer-songwriter and guitarist. He is also a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community and the spouse of Liza Diño.

About a month ago, Ice took to Instagram and shared an account of a poser. The poser was pretending to be the singer and so he appealed to him or her not to pretend to be him. He also warned his followers about the account and asked them to simply ignore and report. Fans of the singer were quick to report the account.

Around the same time, he also penned a heartfelt tribute to his father-in-law, former DILG Undersecretary Martin Diño. The singer’s father-in-law recently passed away after battling stage 4 cancer. According to Ice, he is grateful to Martin Diño for wholeheartedly accepting and embracing him as a member of the family. Furthermore, Ice acknowledged Martin Diño's resilience and dedication to various causes, including his fight for the nation and his battle against cancer.
