feminist struggle…
Thursday, January 26th, 2006I learned one significant fact today and it has something to do with women’s rights…today I found out that the first woman to ever win a case on Marital
Rape was a certain Remedios Baudon who is from Davao…don’t you find that significant? Maybe for men it’s not but for women it is…this case was put to rest some four or five years ago but did anyone ever heard about it? Maybe a few but it was never sensationalized like the way news are sensationalized when men win over women…why? Simply because it would hurt men’s pride and image…it actually appeared on a certain newspaper but it never appeared on a front page…worse is that it was presented on a different view point wherein the news focused on the gory facts regarding the case and not on the struggle for feminism…isn’t that an awakening?
