Short shorts worn at the "Bikini Show" were like band aid

THE SHORT OF IT. People who saw the Bantayan “bikini show” aired over GMA-7 commented that the participants didn’t really wear bikinis but shorts. But they were as quick to condemn the shorts worn at the show. A reporter commented, “Wala tuod sila nagsul-ob og bikini apan ang ilang shorts, puwerteng mugbu-a. Kita na ang liki sa lubot ug ang igot-igot.” Another mediaman called the shorts “mura’g band aid.”

DANCE ACT. Critics of the “bikini show” also said that what was indecent was more than what they wore at the bikini show, it was how the participants acted. A reader who saw the show on TV said, “They were dirty dancing and grinding at each other. Indecent gyud, dili lang ang gisul-ob, pati na ang binuhatan.”
