Senator Robin Padilla, the self-proclaimed defender of male sexual rights, has embarked on a noble quest to find the legal foundation for a man’s “heat of the moment” impulses.
After all, why should pesky concepts like consent or respect get in the way of a husband’s “natural” rights?
When faced with the absurd notion of counseling or, heaven forbid, mutual respect, Padilla heroically scoffed, dismissing these modern-day follies with the disdain they deserve. Clearly, such outdated ideas have no place in the brave new world he’s envisioning, where the sacred duty of a wife is to serve her husband unquestioningly.
Perhaps, as his search for legal justification drags on, he might find himself the perfect candidate for PAWS’ neuter program—because, really, some old dogs just need to be taught new tricks.
The international uproar over biological males allegedly entering women’s boxing at the Paris Olympics is a melodrama for the ages. With no gender eligibility tests for just two athletes, the world’s gone bananas. Discrimination, you say? Why, the very notion!
Let’s pause to ponder the irony: biological male boxers face blatant sexism by being helmetless in the ring while their female counterparts are cosseted in cushy headgear. It’s as if male skulls come with an inbuilt airbag. Are we waiting for a headline-grabbing, tragic head injury to reinstate helmet requirements?
Meanwhile, the supposed infiltration of male athletes in women’s events sparks more outrage than the blatant disregard for male safety. Could it be the Olympics is less about fair play and more about sensationalism? Ah, the sweet hypocrisy of sports!
In a twist worthy of a prime-time soap opera, opponents of divorce law might take a cue from actress and TV host Anne Curtis. Curtis recently pointed out that all the senators against divorce—except for Cynthia Villar—are men. Coincidence? We think not. A recent survey reveals that men who win the lottery tend to use their windfall to support their families, while women are more likely to use their winnings to escape, well, marriage. So, is opposition to divorce just a male thing? Are women merely biding their time, waiting for the financial means to say, “Adieu, darling”? Perhaps it’s time for a follow-up survey to uncover the truth. Until then, one thing is clear: some senators may want to keep their eye on the lotto numbers—just in case their wives have a winning ticket and a secret plan.
