RH law critics take center stage as SC oral arguments start

2013-07-09T23:24:00.000-07:00

It's been a year or so that I was not able to update my post here and I thought that the issue on the RH bill was over and ready for implementation but I was wrong. Today, I was greeted by the news that there's a renewed debate on RH bill at the Supreme Court.

I was so upset by the remark of one former lawmaker on his television interview
describing RH Bill to be likened to that of a genocide. And I wonder how he was able to make those conclusions by saying those irresponsible remarks. When I seek Google on the meaning of genocide I found out that the word means-'the deliberate killing of a large group of people, esp. those of a particular ethnic group or nation.' I really don't know what goes into the mind of that lawmaker as he compared RH bill to that of a genocide which to me is very far fetched.

In his opening statement, former Senator Francisco Tatad expressed his fear that Republic Act 10354 would"rewrite the mandate of the Constitution by imposing population control to state-mandated contraception." He added that under the RH bill, couples are only given the options of periodic continence and contraception. "They cannot choose not to choose between the two methods. They must practice birth control or suffer the consequences," he further said.

The former lawmaker insisted that the law does not equally protect the lives of mothers and their unborn children. "That is simply putting family, its most intimate and private life, and their liberties under state supervision," he stated.

Dog Saves Abandoned Newborn Baby

2012-06-09T06:30:00.000-07:00

Another newborn infant was left forsaken by its mother for unknown reasons. This time, the incident happened in Winkongo, near Bolgatanga, the Upper East Regional Capital of Ghana, where the two week old child was discovered under a bridge. Fortunately, the baby was safe as it was protected and cared by a local farm dog until they were both found by searchers.

Officials say the two were found together many hours after the pooch went missing. A search party was then formed to look for the dog, but not the baby, when the dog's worried owner got concerned that her pet had not returned home in the evening. Several searchers spent most of the night tracking the hound through nearby fields and woods in pursuit of the wandering canine, but it was not until early morning that they finally located him under the bridge near the farm he calls home. But the searchers were surprised to find the dog curled around a human infant.

A story like this really breaks my heart and that is one of the reason why I made a chart a couple of years ago to serve as guide for those couples who want to avoid an unwanted pregnancy. Please check this chart HERE...

Multiple Orgasms

Most women who have experienced both claim that it is easier
to have multiple G-spot orgasms than it is to have multiple
clitoral orgasms. If an orgasm rears its lovely head while
you two are playing, try whispering some words of encouragement
(and perhaps ratchet up the intensity just a little bit), but
basically continue pleasuring through her orgasm, afterwards,
and possibly into a next one.

As long as it still feels good for both of you, what's the
point of stopping? There is often a "pyramid effect" with
multiple G-spot orgasms; each one makes the next one feel
better, and makes almost anything else sexual feel better too.

However, as I said earlier everybody is a little different,
and quality is obviously more important than quantity.

It IS true for some women that G-Spot play may become more likely to result in orgasm over a period of weeks or months after first starting to experiment with it. It is also true that the intensity
of G-Spot orgasms may be directly related to pubococcygeal
muscle tone, which is another incentive for doing regular PC
muscle exercises.

If you're a woman and you want to try including your G-Spot
when masturbating, one good combination of toys would be a
vibrator (used on your clit as you're getting warmed up).

By the way, in general it isn't a good idea to have a huge ego
/emotional stake in having (or "giving") orgasmsor multiple
orgasms; most sex educators believe it isn't helpful to get
"goal oriented" about something that's supposed to be fun.

Problems Women Have Ejaculating

I think there are two major problems women face that prevents

them from the immensely enjoyable experience of ejaculation.
They are the female's mental attitude, and their partners inability
or unwillingness to spend the time and effort during lovemaking and to learn the necessary techniques.

I will address both of these problems and the solutions here.
The ejaculation is done through the urethra.

This is the same tube that is used for urination.
It is located outside the vagina, between it and the clitoris.
The fluid is water like, and non- lubricating.

In no way does ejaculation improve the chances of conceiving,
it offers no lubrication, and is dumped outside of the vagina.
The only conceivable purpose of female ejaculation is for pleasure.

And the pleasure is intense, in many cases far surpassing the
best orgasm's. Often ejaculation takes place during both a
clitoral and a vaginal orgasm (yes there are two type of orgasms,
clitoral and vaginal, but often orgasm is a combination of the two),
giving the female extreme pleasure, sort of a triple whammy.

Sometimes after ejaculation the female will virtually pass out
from the intense feelings.

It can be argued that since the only reason that females can
and do ejaculate is for pleasure, then there should be no reason
for them to not do so, and as often as they please.

It is one of the safer sex acts, since in most cases it can be
triggered with fingers alone. Ejaculating from intercourse is
more difficult, especially when performed from the missionary
position, but still possible.

Abandoned Babies Worldwide

2012-04-15T17:43:00.004-07:00

I am surfing the internet today and was surprised to know that there were a lot of babies being abandoned by their mother not only here in the Philippines but all over the world. What is alarming also is the fact that the search engine for the word 'abandoned babies' will give you a result of as much as 4,390 sites. These figures are for bing search engine results alone and not counting that of google and yahoo. And I am thinking that if we add all those numbers from the other search engine, the figures will reach as much as 10,000 or maybe 15,000 babies being abandoned worldwide. So, I am wondering now what could be the compelling reasons of those mothers to abandon their newborn babies? Remember, this is happening worldwide and I don't agree that poverty is the lone culprit or would be the common answer to the question. Therefore, what must be the reason for all of this?

Questions About the Penis

What's the average size of the penis? What are the extremes?
According to specialists, the average is 15cm and 90% are between 13 and 18cm.The records for a fully functional penis are 1.5cm and 30cm.

Can penis size be increased?

Yes. There are two surgical procedures to increase penis size-- the Bihari Procedure, and Fat Injection.

The Bihari Procedure consists of cutting the ligament that secures the base of the penis to the body. This gives between one-half and two inches of increased length to the penis; however, because the penis is no longer anchored to the body an erection no longer points 'up.'

Fat Injection is the process of removing fat from the backs of the thighs and injecting it into the body of the penis to make the penis thicker. Because the body rejects a significant portion of the injection this procedure may need to be repeated several times and each operation carries with it a severe risk of infection.

What is circumcision and why is it done?

Male circumcision is the surgical removal of the foreskin from the penis. When performed in a hospital, it is usually done shortly after birth by a doctor or midwife. Circumcisions are also given to Jewish boys by a mohel in a ceremony eight days after birth.
Some Islamic boys are circumcised when they are older, around age 12. The majority of American boys are circumcised.

Common reasons for circumcision include: better hygiene, "normal" or "better" appearance, and "his penis should look like his father's."

Common reasons against circumcision include: it is no longer necessary for hygienic reasons; it is a painful, barbaric practice; possibility of infection or surgical error; "normal" or "better" appearance; "his penis should look like his father's."; and "greater sensitivity of uncircumcised penis."

Hope this clears some mysteries for you.

Skyrocket Your Ejaculation

Question: How do I make my ejaculate more powerful regarding distance and quantity of semen?

Let's start with distance. First, the pelvic floor muscle plays an important part in the strength of your erections and ejaculatory control. To locate this muscle simply stop the flow of urine.

You will feel the muscle contracting at the base of your penis and across the pelvic floor, including your anus. Just as the first feelings of climax begin, completely tighten the pelvic floor muscles.

The automatic contractions of orgasm will inevitably begin and due to the pressure you are exerting with the sustained muscular tension, your load should shoot farther.

To gain more power and distance, you have two options. Firstly, integrate some sort of anal penetration into your solo sex. Slipping in a butt plug or fingers will put pressure on the prostate and urinary tract. A similar thing happens when you mash your thumb over the opening of a freely flowing water hose.

It makes the water stream shoot farther and harder. Second, increasing and prolonging your level of arousal can help to increase the amount of ejaculate you produce. Some of my most powerful ejaculations have occurred after a sustained period of high arousal.

Now for quantity. This depends on the individual, his age, and how long it's been since he's last ejaculated. Some guys come a little, some come a lot, and age has a lot to do with the amount of ejaculate.

Instead of saving up semen in order to spurt a bigger load, I'd suggest coming on a regular basis. Why focus on the quantity of semen? I'd pay more attention to the quality of your orgasms and the pleasure you get in sex with yourself and a your partners.

Failure Rate of Popular Female Contraceptives

2011-12-13T04:12:00.000-08:00

You may notice that the DontGetpreggy Guide I made was intended only for those women who had a regular monthly menstrual cycle. So one may ask how about those who have an irregular menstrual cycle? How will they or how can they prevent unintended pregnancies? Well, for those women with irregular monthly periods, there are some other form of contraceptives in order to avoid the consequences of having an unplanned pregnancy.

There are so many other contraception nowadays, which you can choose from and among them are IUD, pills, male condom, diaphragm, female condom, withdrawal and spermicides. But the effectiveness of all these rely much on how well the procedures are being consistently and correctly followed. You just have to seek the right one for you. You can choose a contraceptive that's used daily, weekly, monthly, once every three months, once every three years or even once a decade.

In the chart above, the rate of failure was significantly higher than those who followed the procedure with consistency and precisely. The chart also shows that IUD's appear to be one of the safest forms of protection against unintended pregnancy.

We now have a new generation of young adults and a vast majority of them are sexually active but are in cloud about modern contraception and they don't know also how to make a reasonable choice. Any articles that deals on the topic above would be of good value and make them well informed and be aware of all the alternatives available so that they can avoid the consequences of an unplanned pregnancies.

Stress During Early Stage of Pregnancy May Affect Baby's Gender

2011-12-10T05:02:00.000-08:00

There was a study made in another country that stress on the early stage of pregnancy may affect the baby's gender and may reduce the chances of having a baby boy. The study conducted in Chile reveals that pregnancy can be impacted by exposure to stress itself rather than the factors that often accompany or cause stress, such as poverty, the researchers said.

The study made by Dr. Karine Kleinhaus, an assistant professor of psychiatry, obstetrics & gynecology, and environmental medicine at New York University, said in a journal news release that this findings may be related to previous research, which has found that male fetuses tend to grow larger than females and need more resources from the mother, and therefore are more likely to miscarry in times of stress. In addition, male fetuses may be less robust than females and may be less capable of adapting their development to a stressful environment in the womb.

The study also revealed that women in this country who experienced an earthquake during their second and third months of pregnancy had shorter pregnancies and were more likely to have premature babies.

Hi there! I have been away for more than a year and glad I'm back. I've been busy on my other projects that I wasn't able to make a new post on this blog for a long time. Add to that, I am also in the process of completing a software which I call DontGetPreggy calculator that I am planning to incorporate on this blog. You see, this software application I am constructing will have an ease of use for those who are observing family planning or those who just want to avoid complications of having an unwanted pregnancy.

Well, actually the program is already done but still having problem on making an .exe set up file so that the application will be able to run on any pc. I still don't know at this time if the software application could be uploaded here but hopefully it can be done once I completed this project. Anyway, the application is in Visual Basic Form and I'm having a hard time on this last and final step that I always end up getting an error message. Hopefully, on the following day I'll be able to hit the right codes and get it done.

I also made some design changes on the DontGetPreggy Guide but it is still the same as the previous one, only it has a new background and some color changes to make it more appealing for readers of the new generations. The picture above shows how it looks now and with a different caption but similar in meaning.

In the past few days, I was also contemplating to change this blog and make it in a local language but I finally decided to leave it as it is. By now, I'll again try to fix that software application and pray that I would be able to show it finally on my next post.

Avoid Unplanned Pregnancy Video

Below is the video I made and uploaded to You Tube some months back on how to avoid unplanned pregnancy with the help of a chart guide I named DontGetPreggy Guide.
With this video, it was mentioned here of a product called Cycle Beads which is a tool for determining fertility period of a woman based on her menstrual cycle. This Cycle Beads is where I patterned the making of the chart DontGetPreggy Guide.

Pnoy versus Padre Damaso

2010-09-30T00:21:00.000-07:00

President Noynoy Aquino has recently announced that he is in favor on the use of birth control methods among couples who want to practice family planning.

He further stated that couples themselves are in the best position to determine what is best for their families and what methods they would apply whether it be artificial or natural method of birth control.

This latest announcement by the President on the subject of responsible parenthood drew the ire anew of the Catholic bishops who are strongly opposed on the idea of promoting both the artificial and natural birth control method on family planning instead of just only one method which is the natural method of birth control.

However, President Aquino appears not bothered by his pronouncement even by a threat of 'excommunicado' by the Catholic prelates and was not inclined to reconsider his stand on the issue.

I remember when I started this blog, I cited that one of the reasons why birth control program has failed in the past is the lack of funds and support coming from the previous administrations to effectively implement this program. But now, that it finally got its full backing from this new and present government and even appropriating funds for the project, a new setback again has cropped up but now with the opposition coming from no less but these Catholic bishops.

This program of family planning has been going on since way back of the Marcos regime but its implementation was not very much successful on the grounds cited above. These bishops should have come out a long time ago when the program is still in its offspring to air their dislike on the plan but why only now?

And where is the so-called "separation of state and church" as being taught in the secondary education. I think the duty of the Church is to merely provide spiritual guidance to its vast Filipino Catholic members on the issue of birth control.

It is now the chance of the government to make its move but why are they now mingling on the affairs of the State. Why not let the government do its part on where the church obviously failed as shown by several incidents of abandoning of babies and leaving unborn child right infront of Catholic churches. Are these bishops just saving their own faces and could not admit the fact that they have miserably failed on their spiritual guidance against pre-marital sex and on birth control?

I hope our President will not be coward by the threats of these bishops of making him 'excommunicado' from the Catholic church.

Fetus found at airport, and near Manila churches

2010-09-14T20:00:00.000-07:00

In my last post here, I featured the news story of a baby boy who was abandonded by her mother inside a toilet of a passenger jet Gulf Air at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport.

Well, I was surprised to read another story that happened also at the same national airport. But this time, it was a fetus discovered dumped in a trash can of the airport terminal 1's departure area. This incident took place some few months back.

More incidents of fetus discoveries also ocurred just recently, this time it was found near Manila churches. One was found near Quiapo church while the other was discovered near the Manila Cathedral in Intramuros, Manila.

These are very disturbing news of the fact that many women chosed to abandon their babies or seek informal abortion from elsewhere instead of giving good life to their infants.

I just want to remind those having unwanted pregnancy at the moment that there are also people outside that are more than willing to adopt a child.

A good example is George Francis, the baby boy who was left inside a plane's toilet and is now being taken care of the social welfare office. It was reported that the agency have been flooded by offer for adoption of the innocent child.

You may also have a relative or distant relatives or friends who longed to have a child and is very much willing to adopt a child much more from a person they already knew.

A Women's Group Call on Congress to Allow Safe & Legal Abortion

2010-08-02T18:11:00.000-07:00

A New York based women's group has appealed to Congress to pass a law allowing a safe and legal abortion in the country. The group cites from their report "Forsaken Lives: The Harmful Impact of the Philippine Criminal Abortion Ban" that a significant number of Filipino women are seeking underground procedures for an abortion that leads them to a more complicated situation while some have lost their lives due to abdominal infections.

While post-abortion services are legal, women who seek them are often harassed or discriminated against by medical health staff when they sought treatment for complications due to an unsafe abortion. Some were even threatened to be reported to an NBI officer giving them more anxiety instead of a relief.

The women's group, Center for Reproductive Rights is an advocacy group that says that it works to advance reproductive freedom as a human right. It said its report was based on their interviews with women who had undergone abortion, hospital authorities, law enforcers and political leaders.

World's Craziest Weddings Ever

2010-07-17T15:35:00.000-07:00

Have you heard about the world's weirdest weddings ever of a man marrying a dog, a computer geek marrying his virtual girlfriend on computer games.

Or about a woman marrying a snake cobra and also a man getting married to his pet cat. These and more are what included in an article just read recently about the world's weirdest marriages between a human and an animal which practice are prohibited in some parts of the world where two incidents happened in India.

But in fairness, some of these were done as a form of punishment for a man who had sex with a goat or a belief to prevent an onslaught of a disease wherein a poor young girl was forced to marry a 'frog prince'.

DOH and Catholic Bishop finally agree on responsible parenthood, but not sex education.

2010-07-07T12:58:00.000-07:00

The DOH and a Catholic bishop had finally come to terms when it comes to responsible parenthood but not on sex education.

Both parties are optimistic to have a solution to its long standing conflict on giving sex education to elementary and high school students as part of DepEd school curriculum. They are now seeing that responsible parenthood can be a more appropriate terms to use and not sex education.

However, there are still differences in their own terminology of responsible parenthood. While the government translates it as 'allowing couples to have a more active part in family planning', the Church on the other hand view it as 'allowing parents to follow the natural biological composition of the human persons'.

Although they differ on their own views, both parties are now confident that they can find a compromise with talking and not fighting each other and also without having to go back to square one.

Marrying in the month of June

2010-06-06T02:59:00.000-07:00

It is now the month of June where most couples want to book their marriage vows in this season of time whether it is a church wedding or a plain ceremony officiated by a judge. But what is so special about having your marriage held in the month of June? Why not July or August? I have been asking this in my mind for sometime and it's only recently that I chanced upon this article and somehow given me a clearer picture and understanding of it.

So, here is a more precise explanation - that marrying in the month of June is likely to be lucky is believed to be an ancient superstition.

Some authorities also say that the month of June may have been the natural mating period for human beings in the primitive times.

But it is popularly believed that the month of June was named after Juno, the patroness of happy marriages. A proverb in Ancient Rome says, "Prosperity to the man and happiness to the maid when married in the month of June."

What does honeymoon after the wedding symbolizes?

After the wedding comes the honeymoon, and you may ask how did the word honeymoon come to exist?

It looks like the word honeymoon originated in some parts of European country wherein it is a traditional belief to supply a newly wed couple with enough mead for a month to ensure happiness and fertility of the couple.

Mead is an alcoholic beverage made from fermented honey, thus we get the word honeymoon (moon meaning "month")

It is also on the idea that the first month of marriage is the sweetest, as sweet as honey.

Sex Education in Public High Schools

2010-05-31T08:13:00.000-07:00

The Department of Education is planning to push though with its project of teaching sex education in selected 29 public high schools including Metro Manila and in some provinces in the country being eyed as its pilot areas.

This was announced by the Department Head Secretary Mona Valisno months ago and is all set to be implemented this coming school opening on June.

As it is, the said plan is again being opposed by the Catholic Church but Secretary Valisno is determined to do it as she claims that some cases of sex related diseases among the youth have reached a very alarming rate, stemming from lack of knowledge on the subject.

CBCP Not Giving Up On Reproductive Health Bill

2010-05-30T08:20:00.000-07:00

It's been a month now since my last post here and almost a month after the automated election that was held here in the Philippines. And as we can see on the election results, there are several candidates who are proponents of RH bill that emerged winner in their bid for government posts. Even Sen. Noynoy Aquino who is the leading presidential aspirant is a known supporter of the said bill which the Catholic bishops said promotes the use of artificial contraceptives and is thus, tantamount to an abortion.

Well, the Catholic church is still not giving up wherein a CBCP offical have issued an statement that they will continue to 'monitor' these elected government officials who openly support the controversial RH bill.

The Reproductive Health Bill

2010-04-13T18:49:00.000-07:00

This bill has been pending in Congress for sometime now as it gained wide criticisms from the Catholic church. It may pass on as a law but maybe not until after the election time is over and a new president of the Philippines is elected next month. I think passage of this bill as a law would not only benefit many Catholics but the whole Filipino nation as well. After i go over and read some provisions of the proposed law, i don't think it may cause any harm on anyone else, as it clearly states that the bill does not changes the law on abortion contrary to claims by other sectors that it promotes an abortion, to wit:

SEC. 3. Guiding Principles. – This Act declares the following as basic guiding principles:
m. While nothing in this Act changes the law on abortion, as abortion remains a crime and is punishable, the government shall ensure that women seeking care for post-abortion complications shall be treated and counseled in a humane, non-judgmental and compassionate manner.

There are some provisions or sections on the proposed bill that has been practiced already in the past so i think it is high time now that passage of this bill will only justify what has already been going on a long time ago.

The last paragraph of the above provision is what really caught my attention as i have observed that many women nowadays as in the past are really keen on observing birth control especially the natural birth control. But some women have an irregular menstruation period and may not fit to follow the natural method of birth control and left with little options available while the others just doesn't know how it is properly done. And as a result of their miscalculations, it resulted instead of their getting pregnant. Thereafter, some may seek any kind of remedy just to abort the formation of a child on their womb. Some of them may not be too successful and will experience continues bleeding on their uterus that would lead them to seek hospital assistance. But the problems got more complicated when some hospitals refuse to accept patient who undergone some kind of an abortion...

Just want to point out that i am not promoting abortion here, my contention is that what if there is a patient just like the example above and a hospital personnel refuses to give aid or medical assistance upon learning that she went some kind of an abortion, where would that poor patient seek instead for medical aid?

Two Young Bare-footed Tots In A Jeepney

2010-03-23T05:22:00.000-07:00

About a couple of days ago, as I was riding on a passenger jeep on my way home one late afternoon, suddenly 2 young tots boarded in. Their age could be somewhere from 8 while the older one is about 12 years old. They both appeared to be a neglected child as can be gleaned from their appearance, both bare-footed and with dirty clothes on their body. As I was looking at the two, I noticed that they seem to divide among them some coins they have somewhat collected in a day's toil. As i looked at the younger one, I couldn't help but ask myself, where could have been the parents of these two children are? They should have been spending their time in school and studying but they aren't.

This is a similar scene I remember way back when i was a child. I was also on board a passenger jeepney then when we stopped on an intersection suddenly there were several children scampering toward us passengers asking for some spare coins. That scene also led me to ask myself the same question above that left unanswered.

That question have catapulted in my young mind then and later concluded that they could have been a neglected children or have been caused by an unwanted pregnancies.

And that forgettable scene is just one reason that have seemed influence and inspire me to make this blog on getting rid of unplanned pregnancy.

The chart I made here is a ready reference guide and free of charge, nothing to download no membership fee and can also be accessed via sms, birth control thru text messaging.

It is created on the same concept as the rhythm method of birth control with the help of a visual aid, that is the DontGetPreggy Guide. The chart indicates the fertile period of a woman and likewise the safe days to make love when a couple is avoiding an unplanned pregnancy.

Binay vs Fernando Debate on Harapan

CBCP vs DOH

2010-03-10T07:29:00.000-08:00

The Catholic Bishops of the Philippines once again raise its opposition against the DOH on one of its implementing program aimed at preventing the spread of hiv-aids in the country.
Alarmed of the situation that the hiv virus had significantly spread in the past few months, the Department of Health adopted a program of distributing condoms as its measure to counter the threat of aids epidemic but the Catholic church opposed the idea saying it is not the right solution.
This made me think on what must be a better solution to the problem that is up on these bishop's mind? They just merely said no to the idea of DOH but never gave their own measure on how to combat the situation of this rapidly spreading deadly virus.
I think the Catholic church had already failed in its duty to spiritually guide those people who had aleady afflicted by the disease so now is the turn of the government agency involved like DOH to act on the situation.
But why the opposition of these so-called bishops? Why they should interfere with the job of other when they have miserably failed already to do what they must have done?
What i know is there is what we call a separation of church and state in our country, so why is the church mingling with the affairs which is a sole responsibility of the government or of the state?
