For this new collection, we’re reclaiming the phrase “Kababaeng Tao” roughly translated as “You’re a woman and yet…”

Kababaeng Tao pero maingay. You’re a woman and yet you’re loud.

Kababaeng Tao pero nakabukaka. You’re a woman and yet you sit with your legs open.

Kababaeng Tao pero pasaway. You’re a woman and yet you just keep breaking the rules.

“Kababaeing Tao” is used to define us and ultimately exclude us, isolating those whom our society has denied the identity of a woman, including our trans and queer kapatids.

"Kababaeng Tao" is wielded as a weapon against our guilt, confining women to a box labeled 'proper', ‘submissive’, and 'nice'. Pinays deserve dignity and respect for who we are, not for conforming to some mold.

But no more. At Pinay Collection, we're committed to reclaiming what's been unjustly taken from us. We're unapologetically devoted to embracing and healing from the wounds inflicted by patriarchal words. We're determined to reclaim the identity we've always defined for ourselves, even if it's been disregarded by those around us. For far too long, the narratives of pina/xys have been dictated by voices other than our own. But now, we declare with conviction: 

Kababae kong tao at marunong akong lumaban. I am a woman and I know how to resist.

15% of this collection will be donated to the Free Our Sisters, Free Ourselves (FOSFO) campaign - an international campaign under GABRIELA, against the political persecution and repression of women activists and human rights defenders in the Philippines.
