(Pronounced Fi-li-pin-eks)
North Americans of Filipino Descent.
While proud of their heritage, due to the cultural differences of their community with the Philippine Population, especially with issues of gender and racial inclusivity, they could not fully identify themselves as Filipino. Hence, the need to coin a new term to describe their identity.
This has also brought about the birth of a new dialect within the Filipino Language, the Filipinx Dialect, which seeks to correct words that they have deemed non-inclusive. Examples of which are Titx (For Uncles and Aunts) and Lolx (For Grandparents)
Etymology:
Filipino-ex
Filipino - refers to the inhabitants or descendants of the Philippine Nation
Ex - Prefix or Suffix to denote former

I am a Filipinx. My Filipino grandparents migrated to the USA in the 70s, and our family has been here ever since. I was born here, and I grew up here. I don't fully speak a Philippine Native Language, but would like to learn, especially if it could be more inclusive to other genders and races.

The Filipino language is already gender-neutral stop westernizing the usage of the Filipino language whoever created this clearly has no regard and understanding of the language and culture.
To apply Western movements such as Latinx to the Filipino context when there is absolutely no need for it; and to "convince" the Filipinos that Filipino is not gender- neutral is misleading and goes to show that the murikans (or not-so-real-Filipinos) have arbitrarily imposed their rules and culture (or lack thereof) to the real, rich and colorful Filipino identity.
The world thinks that Amurikan wokes speak for all of us. They do not.
