Abstract

This study examines the speech content of Boy Abunda's Why Can't We Have a Gay President using the Model of Feminist Theory according to Jo Ann Arinder. To investigate traditional gender norms and expectations, the study looks at the language used by Boy Abunda in his speech, "Why Can't We Have a Gay President?" It also aims to identify the gender issues raised in the speech and how feminist theory could help with comprehension. Furthermore, to identify themes and subthemes regarding gender issues and the deconstruction of Boy Abunda, the research study employed a content analysis approach. The results provide insight into how Boy Abunda's presentation of gender issues and language disrupts traditional standards.

Abstract

This study explores the awareness and acceptability of Philippine English (PhilE) among language studies students at a state college in the Philippines. While Philippine English has achieved recognition as a legitimate English variety in academic, professional, and media domains, its acceptance, especially in educational settings, remains uneven due to entrenched native-speaker norms. Using an explanatory sequential mixed methods design, the study first employed a validated survey instrument to gather quantitative data from ninety-seven (97) respondents. Descriptive statistics and Pearson product-moment correlation were used to measure levels of awareness and acceptability, and the relationship between them. This was followed by semi-structured interviews with six (6) participants. Findings revealed that students were generally aware of the meaning, features, and uses of PhilE, with highest awareness scores for grammatical and pronunciation features and usage in digital media. However, acceptance of PhilE grammatical and lexical items remained limited, especially in formal contexts. A statistically significant but inverse correlation (r = –.995, p < .001) was found between awareness and acceptability—suggesting that greater knowledge may reinforce prestige bias rather than dismantle it. Three key factors influencing awareness and acceptability were identified: (1) educational exposure and curricular influence, (2) digital media and online representation, and (3) peer and instructor influence. The findings highlight the urgent need for a critical pedagogical shift which not only raises awareness of local English varieties but also fosters linguistic pride and legitimacy. Implications point to the inclusion of PhilE in curricula, teacher training, and institutional policy as necessary steps toward equitable and context-sensitive English language education in the Philippines.
