Women empowerment has made sexual harassment no longer a gender issue

Posted on October 8, 2018 By benign0 4 Comments on Women empowerment has made sexual harassment no longer a gender issue
Women empowerment has made sexual harassment no longer a gender issue

Recent hints emerging of the less-than-wholesome corporate culture in the ABS-CBN newsroom have brought to fore this confronting topic. Women have always been seen to be the “victims” of society’s power games — an idea that owes its persistence to the position of power men commanded over much of human history. But with the expansion…

Gretchen Fullido sexual harassment scandal in a time of man-shaming

Well well well — charges of sexual misconduct among women. I find it a bit rich in a day and age when people’s timelines are filled with voices decrying women’s victimhood in the hands of men that this latest brouhaha surrounding Gretchen Fullido’s charges of sexual harassment against ABS-CBN News execs would suddenly break. If…

Dealing With a Bleeding, Stabbed-With-Truth Ego

Dealing With a Bleeding, Stabbed-With-Truth Ego

It’s amusing and annoying at the same time reading comments on blogs such as this, that point out the idiocy and the reasons why Filipinos, collectively, have a hard time getting out of the mud that he loves wallowing into. Words like racist, butthurt, asshole are thrown by either side. Some have never-ending thread of retaliation…

House Rep. John Bertiz’s arrogance mirrors the character of the Filipino people

House Rep. John Bertiz’s arrogance mirrors the character of the Filipino people

The brouhaha over House Representative John Bertiz not removing his shoes for a security check at the Manila International Airport is, itself, evidence that rules and the Law don’t really rule in the Philippines. In a modern society of laws, such a display of arrogance would have been swiftly dealt with and not have required…

How Ideologies Failed and became Obsolete

During one martial law anniversary, columnist Raul Pangalanan wrote about how ideologies led to what happened during the martial law era. These include the First quarter storm riots, the formation and actions of the New People’s Army, and nearly anything anti-Marcos. He said, all of these happened because people clung to ideologies more people today…

What to expect from today’s September 21 Luneta “Grand Rally”…

Something one could reasonably expect of yet another “grand rally” organised by the Yellowtards at the Luneta is an answer to this long-posed question: What next after the rally? As the late comedy great Dolphy said about running for office in an election, “Madali lang tumakbo, paano kung manalo?” Indeed, it is easy to “hit…

Going around in circles

Going around in circles

People come and go. Governments rise and fall. Disasters (natural or otherwise) happen and leave their effects. In this regard, the Philippines is not much different from other societies in the world. What distinguishes us is how we react. Despite knowing some things happen cyclically, rather than improve their response, it seems Filipinos collectively would…

“Activists” who called for a NutriAsia boycott should also call for a Catholic Church boycott

One can admire the way Filipino “activists” vigorously campaigned for the boycott of Filipino food conglomerate NutriAsia. NutriAsia manufactures products marketed under iconic Filipino brands such as Mang Tomas, UFC, and Datu Puti among others. These brands are not just ordinary brands. They are ingrained in the Filipino tradition and, as such, the average Filipino…
