Xander Ford, originally known as Marlou Arizala, just came out as a bisexual but netizens said that it can’t erase the fact that he is still a rapist.
Through his Instagram story, Xander revealed his true identity by saying that, he is “part of LGBTQ” with a “#Bisexual”.
However, netizens suspect that this ‘coming out’ of Xander is just a gimmick to mislead the rape accusation against him.
Marlou Arizala aka Xander Ford admitting he is a bisexual. If it's true, then welcome to the LGBTQ community. If this is just another gimmick to mislead the controversy abt the rape accusation, not a good move. Basta #TanginaMoBongGo pa din. pic.twitter.com/gcu39KEBHH

They also said that being part of the LGBTQ+ community doesn’t erase the fact that he is a rapist and abuser.
Being part of the LGBT+ will not make you special, Xander Ford. You're still a rapist and a VAWC abuser

Xander Ford: comes out as Bisexual
Me: 3 things. One, ok. Two, why are you still relevant. Three, you’re still a rapist/committed sexual assault. Coming out as Bisexual doesn’t discount the fact that you sexually assaulted a girl. pic.twitter.com/OVwTBALM0P

They also labeled the internet sensation as ‘clout chaser’, as it seems that he is using the LGBTQ+ community to gain attention.
i'm not against to coming out of someone, in fact, whenever someone decided to tell the world about their preference in life i choose to support but it's XANDER FORD we are talking about here, i guess this is his new way to gain attention. pls stop using the LGBTQ+ for attention pic.twitter.com/zl9tGocT1C
