Celebrities and netizens reacted to PNP-Makati’s Chief Colonel Harold Depositar, who said that all the suspects are still men even though they claim to be gays.
This was in relation to the death of Christine Dacera which is still under investigation.
John Lapus and Fifth Solomon who are part of the LGBTQ society, disaffirmed Depositar’s claim which is against what happens when gays are drunk.
They quipped that they transform into goddesses or drag queens when wasted.
Hindi nagiging lalaki ang mga bakla pag lasing! Nagigi kaming Diyosa! Yung iba, #SexBomb 🙌 https://t.co/WDSs8BdcV5

Other celebrities like K Brosas also said that she had experience drinking with gay friends but they never attempted to kiss her.
pnp— kahit bakla yan pag nakainom ng alak nagiging lalake yan!
me— hoy ilang beses nako nalasing kasama mga beki, ilang beses na kaming nag spin the bottle ayaw nila ako i kiss shutanginamez! 🙄🙄🙄— carmela brosas (@kbrosas) January 6, 2021
DJ Chacha also said her gay friends act more feminine when drunk. Perhaps Depositar did not have a chance to drink with gay men so he does not know.
Kaya nagtataka ko sa mga nagsasabi niyan at naniniwala diyan sa statement na yan, hindi pa naranasan yata makipagwalwalan sa mga beks! https://t.co/w8sntt7Kr8

PNP: "Kahit bakla yan, kapag nakainom ng alak nagiging lalake yan"
Ganon po ba? Eh bat ganon mga friendship kong beks kapag may amats mas malambot pa sa mamahaling unan sa uratex. Yung iba nagiging si Beyonce, Mariah Carey tapos yung iba bet maging Sailormoon.

Voice talent Inka Magnaye already lost her trust with the PNP.
The PNP said that gay men become straight when they’re drunk and you believe everything else that comes out of their mouths?

A netizen also noted that if alcohol could ‘cure’ his gayness, his father could’ve let him drink all the time so he would turn straight.

Dear PNP,
Walang bakla ang nagiging tunay na lalaki pag nakainom na. What the fuck are you guys smoking up your asses? Dios mio.
Get your facts STRAIGHT!

Dunno about you guys but most of my gay friends just become more fabulous when they get drunk. 😅
Hay, diyos ko day.

As PNP let the people believe that there was rape, suspects of the alleged rape-slay case of the flight attendant Christine Dacera claim that they are gay and so they can’t do what they are being blamed for.
However, this claim did not sit well with Makati’s Police Chief as he believes that gay men are still men after all.
“Lalaki pa din sila [mga bakla]. May instinct ‘yan, lalo na if you’re under the influence of intoxicating alcohol.”
