A senator in the Philippines has come under fire online after he asked in parliament whether husbands have “sexual rights” to their wives.
Robin Padilla, a former actor, posed the query to a prominent human rights lawyer, who was invited as a resource person to a hearing on sexual harassment in the entertainment industry.
He also asks what husbands should do if they are “in the mood” and their wives are not - to which lawyer Lorna Kapunan replies that they can “watch Netflix”.
More like sexual wrongs
he got what he asked for. and more.
him being a representative means there’s a lot more that thinks this way.
Filipino here. That guy is a fckng idiot. He’s a misogynistic movie star with too much fame and no brains. Nothing he says has any substance. He got the most votes when he ran for office. Absolute fckng idiot
Welp, if I’m a women in a country that thinks like that, I’m not getting married
Also the only country besides the Vatican (which arguably isn’t even one) where divorce is straight up illegal.
Oh dip! Donkey Doug?!
