Was she among the 25 national finalists of the Miss World selections precisely for her beauty? Homophobes excluded him. Erika Mattina, 23 years old from Monza, long curly brown hair, big eyes and a slim and slender body, would have passed “Just because” she is “lesbian”. Thus, on the Net, the usual haters have liquidated his victory.
Erika is also known on the web because, with her girlfriend Martina Tammaro di Arona, 25, in August 2019 she was heavily insulted after the publication of a photo in which they kissed. Then they founded a Facebook page, @leperledegliomofobi (today followed by almost 38,000 people) and an Instagram (118,000 followers) to report and denounce all hate messages received, as well as to help and raise awareness as many people as possible.
«Ghiei are more protected than normal people. Now the gravel is everywhere and always wins», A user comments under the photo of Erika, smiling and surprised, after having passed the selections with the number 103.« How does a declared homosexual make the selections for Miss World? Absurd where we are arriving ». Many other users have added similar, and equally offensive, considerations.
Erika, today, is in Gallipoli, where the selections were held, and is concentrating on continuing her path. But it is his girlfriend Martina who takes a stand. «I was upset because», she explains to us on the phone, «if I had never understood before why they insult us, in this case I find it even less sensible. We had to speak only of Erika, of one of her goals. In this case does not even hold the excuse of the kiss, exhibitionism “.
According to Martina, this is proof of an underlying problem: that “Regardless, whatever you do, when you talk about a woman, you can’t recognize her merits. If he reaches a goal, it’s never because he deserved it. No: it’s because she is someone’s daughter, because she slept with someone else, in other words. This time they even say that it is “advantageous to be gay”, that we are favorites ».
Erika had passed the first selection – which was online – in quarantine, and the second – in person – for Lombardy, where she won the Miss of the Web sash. She arrived among the 200 finalists of Miss World in Gallipoli, where she was selected among the 25 national finalists.
To his girlfriend, Martina suggested “don’t think about it: she has to do a lot of things and I don’t want her head to be elsewhere. For now, I will manage the situation, and as soon as Erika is freer she will address the issue and have her say ». In fact, “in Gallipoli Erika is very serene, she is doing a lot of tests and, above all, the companions and the organizers do not give a damn, rightly, of his sexual orientation ».
