This article explores queer cultures and advocacy in the Philippines. Through an analysis of a gay beauty pageant and a series of HIV and AIDS awareness video blogs (vlogs) for and about LGBT Filipinos, this article examines the queer/crip nexus as it intersects with discourses of contagion and normalization. We employ Michele Friedner's concept of deaf as an analytic to understand these two cases, which we see as vivid examples of orientations and similitude. We focus on embodied turns that occur on a beauty pageant stage and argue that actors carve out deaf-centered spaces in which they emphasize queer worth and value. Then, we examine how subjects, in collaboration with a hearing LGBT organization, plead for hearing-centered institutions to engage in a turn—a turn or quarter turn—to make these spaces more accessible. Finally, we argue that the vlog, through its deployment of beki sign language, in contradistinction to Filipino Sign Language, not only pushes parts of hearing society to make turns and quarter turns, but also exhibits what we describe as a beki turn, a reorientation toward beki culture. Taken together, we argue that as turns and beki turns come in contact, they produce new forms of queer sociality.
