"Karapatan: Pag-aralan! Ipaglaban!" read some of the placards.

The US Supreme Court had ruled that same-sex marriage was legal in all US states.
But in the Philippines, Malacañang said it is letting Congress debate on whether same-sex marriage should also be legalized in the Philippines.
For its part, the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines said it will stick to Church teachings on marriage, but reassured the LGBT community it will not discriminate against them. — Joel Locsin/JDS, GMA News
