Dear Senator Sotto,
I don't understand you kasi. I cannot understand how someone who is in a position to help our country by passing a bill still refuses to do so. Like you and the RH Bill.

The Filipino people need the help of Senators who can see beyond their own needs, care more for the people they purport to care about than they do about losing the so-called Catholic vote, and realize that although all this interpellating and old-boy chuckling may increase their popularity in the Senate,it does nothing for the real people of the Philippines.

How do you do it, Senator? I mean, you enjoy/enjoyed 25-plus years of fertility with your wife, and you have only four children? Your wife is a beauty titlist and multi-awarded actress and singer, but I have read no research that says singers’ eggs and/or fallopian tubes help to exempt them from pregnancy.
We normal folk, if we don't use contraceptives, we get pregnant most of the time.

I mean, do their sperm also behave like yours? Heat-seeking missiles targeting Ms. Gamboa's eggs only when you wanted Romina, Diorella, Gian and Ciara? Ang suerte niyo namang mag-asawa: No unwanted children. No children born earlier than you wanted them.
Can you train the sperm of your countrymen – good, decent, God-fearing men who want to have children the way you do - all wanted, all spaced to ensure their and their mothers' best health, and yet not take the contraceptives of your choice?
If, indeed, you can do that - make all Filipinos' sperm as senatorial as yours so that each and every Filipino need not worry about another pregnancy when he makes love to his partner, then I will not begrudge your irrational stance against the RH Bill.

Simple. Direct to the point. Silly if not hypocrites hiding from the veil of their organized religion.
