ABOUT MATAPANG AT WALANG HIYA // BRAVE AND NO SHAME
Dedicated to women -- especially my fellow pinays -- that's continuing on their journeys of unlearning that there is no shame in

This is also a love letter to my younger self.
For the girl that got called "matapang" in such frequent negative connotations,
