The Folly of Saying Sex Is Mainly For Pleasure

Back when Benign0 posted his article that the main purpose of sex (as in, copulation) was reproduction and not pleasure, a lot of reactions came that tried to dispute this. Some said that pleasure is a function of humanity above animals, and that humans are entitled to pleasure. But that’s exactly what Benign0 was trying…

So who wants to change?

Kung bibigyan ka ng pagkakataon, . . . Ahm. . . . . Kung bibigyan ka ng pagkakataon, na kunyari, papipiliin ka kung saang panahon mo gustong umusbong. Kailan ang pipiliin mo? Pakiramdam mo ba, sa tamang panahon ka naisilang? Mas pipiliin mo bang, sana sa nakaraan ka na lamang nabuhay, nang sa ganon, sana…

False Dichotomies: Black And White Stupidity

False Dichotomies: Black And White Stupidity

When I was a kid, I was a huge fan of the Transformers and the G.I. Joe cartoons. I would sometimes try to go home a little earlier than usual just to see Optimus Prime and Megatron slugging it out in space or see Snake Eyes trying to stop Metalhead from blowing up another considerable amount of public property….

Mensahe Bago Mag-Araw Ng Mga Puso

Pebrero na naman at marami na namang nagsasabi na “nasa hangin ang amoy ng pag-ibig”. Kaya nga lang, wala akong ibang naamoy kundi ang nasusunog na gulong sa bakuran ng aking kapit-bahay at ang alimuyak ng barbecue na naggagaling sa aking kusina. Maari niyong sabihin na isa akong nag-iisa at inggitin na kumag, pero hindi…

Why Hating Binay And Loving Noynoy Makes No Sense

  For those of you old enough to remember former U.S. Vice President Dan Quayle he was made out by the mostly left leaning US media as their version of Erap. Dennis Miller went as far as suggesting that then President George H. Bush should have no fear of assassination since his allegedly incompetent VP…

A Word Before Valentine’s Day

It’s February again and I hear people saying something about “love being in the air”. Unfortunately, all I really smell is the stench of burning tires in my neighbor’s backyard and the pleasant aroma of barbecue coming from my kitchen. Well, you guys can say that I’m just another single and bitter old coot but…

The Philippines can be a great nation only if Filipinos learn to be TRUTHFUL

The trouble with politicians is that they spend an inordinate amount of time propping up their reputations. Because of this obssessive focus on reputation, the inclination to lie, misrepresent facts, and downright suppress information becomes a lot more powerful — which is why politicians lie. What if we propose the ideal hypothetical politician, one who…

What Pinoys Get Wrong About Rights: Dehumanization In The Media

Ever since the EDSA Revolution, the Philippines and its people has always been proud to be supportive of the “human rights” movement. Since then, Filipinos came to view the Marcos regime and Marcos’ disciplinarian and authoritative mindset as tyrannical and evil. They vilified all his works and sought to bring down everything Marcos had established…
