More Tomboy, More Bakla Than We Admit (SB) Artist's Books & Zines and Malacanan PalaceEdited by Mark Blasius and Richard T. Chu, More Tomboy, More Bakla Than We Admit is an anthology of essays that explore the unique identities, behaviors, and nuances that distinguish Filipino lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgender persons. The essays delve into how LGBT identities are manifested within history, culture, race, religion, family, technology, and psychology in ways that are more complex, multifaceted, and liberating than we admit.
