True. The Spanish colonizers erased our precolonial history. As someone born and raised in the Philippines, I only knew about Maria Makiling, Malakas and Maganda, Bathala. And now we are the center of Catholicism in Asia, so we barely discuss these deities.

[@idkanymore12]

This was really interesting. It’s pretty sad how Filipino culture and religious practices got either erased and rewritten by the Spanish, which as a Latin American can relate to a lot.

Thank you for choosing to tell really unique myths! As much as I love Ancient Greek mythology, it’s nice and refreshing to hear all sorts of myths from different cultures. I would love to hear more of them.

i found you by looking videos on how to paint on fake nails then I actually enjoy your aesthetic vibes. Subscribed :)

[@jaypalmer7855]

I think Libulan will be the inspiration of Bea Luigi's natcos for Miss U

[@reina_harhar7815]

Meanwhile the other side of the story: Sidapa: I love Bulan Kaptan who was literally married with him at that time: Bish... BISH?! IS YOU FOR REAL?

[@rainb5987]

Please discuss about the homosexual and effeminate babaylans during precolonial era.

[@brecohalum2723]

I love this. This is like Bailey Sarian and Jon Solo combined lol.

[@cieloluna3041]

Finally reddit does something right in recommending me this channel

[@LianaC]

Ahh welcome to the channel :) Which subreddit was it?

[@cieloluna3041]

@@LianaC you got recommended over at the beautyguruchatter sub! It's not the most, uh, positive place in reddit to put it mildly, but sometimes they do give out recs for smaller channels (and the main reason I still look at that hellscape from time to time)

[@_nicco]

Can you share your resources on these stories?

[@messiahaeronzausa8721]

Is this is story real because some sources said the love story between Bulan and Sidapa is not real

[@reina_harhar7815]

This was another take between the two gods. Sidapa and Libulan didn't have this kind of romance but the myth implied that they loved each other, just not in a way that they actually became lovers. Unless you count the Seven Moons mess but that felt wrong because Bulan there was a child.
