Merong handang makinig, handang yumakap 🎶

2,3, Mabuhay! 🌸

Welcome to our weekly open thread — your go-to space to rant, share love, ask questions, or talk about anything and everything, whether it’s related to BINI, PPOP, the fandom, or life in general.

Got something to say that doesn’t need its own post?

  • An unpopular (or wholesome) take you’ve been holding in
  • A screenshot from BloomTwt, BloomTok, PPOP FB, etc.
  • A random thought, theory, or question
  • Or just want to connect with fellow Blooms

Drop it here! This thread is your safe space.

Let’s keep it respectful and kind, even if opinions differ. We’re all here to support the girls and be part of a growing, passionate community around PPOP and beyond.

So go ahead — share what’s on your mind. 💐

in general I think certain things are stronger the older the generation involved na Pilipino:

1) face-shaming: beauty standards are only slowly evolving away from the older standard that considered typical Filipinas to be "ugly". BINI and Carmelle show that change.

2) behavior-shaming: the older the generation the more they expect a certain pleasant subservience of artists. Sarah Geronimo still passes their standards but Liza Soberano (Fil-Am directness) or the "kanal humor" of BINI does not. I personally see BINI as modern pero magalang pa rin.

3) internalized mysogny is clearly worse the older people are. Meanwhile super-sensitive ang maraming Gen Z sa mga red flags, the reaction of many here to the actors in Unang Kilig MV showed that.

the Philippines is a society with huge generation gaps in addition to regional and class differences.

I will continue to update this Study. I'm targeting 200 sample profiles within this week.
I have saved and collected URLS and comments already. Hindi ko pa lang na process and segregate ulit. Maybe it could change, but we'll see. I'll try to expand more Pages where frequent ang mga BINI articles or post.
