"It is literally impossible to be a woman.

You are very beautiful and very smart... and it breaks my soul that you think you're not good enough, like we're always supposed to be extraordinary, but somehow we're always doing it wrong.

We have to be skinny, but not too much and you must not say you want to be skinny. You must say you want a healthy weight, but also… YES you have to be skinny.

You must have money, but you can’t ask for money because that would be rude.

You gotta be a boss, but you can't be tough. You must lead, but you cannot crush other people’s ideas.

You’re supposed to love being a mom, but you don’t talk about your kids all the time.

You have to be a professional, but also always take care of everyone else.

You are responsible for men’s misbehavior, WHICH IS CRAZY, but if you notice that, you’re accused of being a whine.

You're expected to keep yourself pretty for men, but not so pretty you 'try them too much' or threaten other women… because you're supposed to be part of the sorority.

You must always stand out and always be very grateful… but never forget the system is fixed, so find how to acknowledge it but remember to be grateful.

You must never grow old, never be rude, never show off, never be selfish, never stumble, never fail or show fear and, of course, you must never be sassy.

It's very hard, it's too contradictory and nobody gives you a medal or says thank you. And it turns out, in fact, that not only are you doing everything WRONG, but also, everything that happens is YOUR FAULT.

I'm tired of seeing myself and every woman doing the impossible for others to love us."

Alam mo ba na ang tamang pangangalaga sa ating mga baga ay malaking tulong sa pangangalaga ng ating kalikasan?

Sa obserbasyon ng National Lung Month ngayong buwan ng Agosto na may temang, "Baga at Kalikasan, ating Alagaan. Ituloy LUNG ang Laban", ang tamang lifestyle, pagkain ng masustansyang pagkain, at pag-iwas sa bisyo gaya ng paninigarilyo ay malaking tulong upang mapanatiling malusog ang ating mga baga at makatulong sa pagpapanatili na ligtas ang ating kapaligiran. Ang usok ng sigarilyo at polusyon ay hindi lamang nakakasama sa ating katawan kundi maging sa ating kalikasan.

The Council for the Welfare of Children lauds the passage of RA 11930 also known as "Anti-Online Sexual Abuse or Exploitation of Children (OSAEC) and Anti-Child Sexual Abuse or Exploitation Materials (CSAEM) Act."

Despite being long overdue, this legislative milestone comes at a time when Filipinos across several sectors demand accountability for the horrendous acts committed by Usapang Diskarte, an online figure prominent on YouTube and Facebook for perpetrating on children.

The passage of RA 11930 brings forth a more vigilant cyberspace towards providing for the increased protection of children, clearly defining OSAEC as an offense and providing penalties therefor. It highlights the increased duties of electronic service providers, internet intermediaries, and financial intermediaries, in terms of blocking and preservation of materials and information found on their platforms, and cooperation with law enforcers.

The law, being trauma and victim-centered, establishes protections and guarantees for victims, particularly with respect to their psycho-social needs. It also establishes the National Coordinating Center against OSAEC and Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation Material under the Inter Agency Council against Trafficking, to which the CWC is now a party.

The CWC assures the public, its partners and stakeholders of the continued and intensified advocacy towards upholding and protecting the rights of all Filipino children—online and offline.

More than ever, our law enforcement is empowered, and so are you!

With our law enforcers' enhanced investigative capacities, as provided for by this newly-enacted law, our hopes are high that people’s vigilance and reporting behavior will be met with prompt and competent response.
