“Kakampink loud, proud and clear. Angat ang Babae!” Abellana wrote.
The actress talked about “discrimination” in her lengthy post.
“Hanggang ngayon, lantaran pa rin ang diskriminasyon at pagmamaliit sa mga kababaihan. Kinakailangan pa nating patunayan ang mga sarili para lang kilalanin at respetuhin ng lipunan,” she wrote.
She called on other women like her to also fight for the future, “Tandaan, babae ka, hindi babae lang! Patuloy tayong lumaban para sa isang kulay rosas na kinabukasan!”
