The Philippine Reproductive Health Crisis needs a face. And that face belongs to Jocelyn. One of the 11 Filipino mothers who die everyday simply because she is denied knowledge about proper family planning. How many mothers are you going to allow Congress and Senate to let die before something is done? Please pressure your Congressman and Senator to vote and PASS the Reproductive Health Bill. Time is running out. It really is.

Lito Lapid Fears the RH Bill (abs-cbnnews.com)
Dear Sir Lapid.
Someone needs to pick up a college level science book and actually read.
Nasa textbook yan, sir. Basahin mo lang. Mag-consult ka muna sa mga doktor. Yung mga totoong doktor ha. Pwede mo rin basahin sa wikipedia.
Also from the article: “Speaking to Senate reporters, Lapid said he is afraid to debate with RH bill co-sponsors Sen. Miriam Defensor Santiago and Sen. Pia Cayetano because he might not be able to answer adequately in English. “
Hindi yan sa kulang ng inggles, Sir. Kahit ako, kulang ang tagalog ko pero alam ko naman anong totoo.
Face the facts. Ignorance kills.
It's not about us versus them, or your God, or your church.
It's about the millions of people who don't know how their body and sexuality works. For lack of the facts, we're working with myths, fiction, heresay.
This is why we need The Reproductive Health Bill No. 5043. We need to be educated, we need to be informed.
Face the Facts. Pass RH BILL NO. 5043.
