A LITTLE HISTORY
Vagina dentata, the unconscious belief that a woman may eat or castrate her partner during intercourse -- literally, the "toothed vagina" -- is a classic mythological symbol of men's fear of sex. It appears in the mythology of countless cultures and societies down through the years.
• One Native American myth states “A fish inhabits the vagina of the Terrible Mother; the hero is the man who overcomes the Terrible Mother, breaks the teeth out of her vagina, and so makes her into a woman.” • The Yanomamo said one of the first beings on earth was a woman whose vagina became a toothed mouth and bit off her consort's penis. • The more patriarchal the society, the more deeply rooted the fear seems to be. Men of Malekula, having overthrown their matriarchate, were haunted by a Yonic spirit called "that which draws us to It so that It may devour us." • Chinese patriarchs said women's genitals were not only gateways to immortality but also "executioners of men." • Moslem aphorisms said: "Three things are insatiable: the desert, the grave, and a woman's vulva." • Polynesians said the savior-god Maui tried to find eternal life by crawling into the mouth (or vagina) of his mother Hina, in effect trying to return to the womb of the Creatress; but she bit him in two and killed him.
Looking into, touching or entering the female orifice seems fraught with hidden fears, signified by the confusion of sex with death in overwhelming numbers of male minds and myths. Since vulvas have labiae, "lips," many men have believed that behind the lips lie teeth. Christian authorities of the middle ages taught that certain witches, with the help of the moon and magic spells, could grow fangs in their vaginas. They likened women's genitals to the "yawning" mouth of hell. How’s that for romantic?

BJE- Bangsamoro Juridical Entity
the hottes issue on philippine politics today is BJE.
on this memorandum of agreement, the GRP is giving power to MILF to take hold or be in-charge of specific places in mindanao and some in visayas.
we are aware of what this group is fighting for, they want to regain their ancestral domains, the lands of their ancestors.
if you think about it ilogically, that's a good idea to stop peace. but, if this agreement is made, will there really be peace? i'm going to look at this agreement from my own perception...
we all know, that ever since, muslims are always in conflict with other religions. and we also know that almost every filipino are catholic and christians, the rival of muslim religion. it is said in this agreement that, GRP will be giving the muslims authority to mindanao INCLUDING the places wherein there are no muslims. with this, the land-ownership will then be ruptured and also the religious freedom will be affected because the only choice is to join the muslim religion for you to be able to stay in your place or runaway.
with this agreement, the government will, likely be, giving almost half of the philippines land area and aerial territory to the muslim people or the MILF.
also, MILF is very fond of war, currently, the government is having hard time to clean up mindanao, particularly sulu, of terrorist. and then, they'll be giving almost half of our country to those rebels? the government will just be opening a massive back attack from those people. think of it! you're thinking of public safety, yet you are opening your backs to a massive attack.
if it happens, there will only be 2 results:
1. either we will be slaughtered, ofcourse with the exceptions of muslims, and they will take control of the whole country.
2. or we will fight back with the aid of AMERICAN TROOPS, but after the war, we will again be america's colony.
those are only the two positive results this BJE will be giving us. either of the two are no good for the filipino...
so this is my challenge to the government, if you are considering the state's safety, think not just twice, but a thousand times.

Crimes
for today, i'll be starting to discuss some crimes which are common to me, or i've already experienced.
Abduction.
1st of all the meaning of abduction, abduction is closely related to kidnapping, but abduction sometimes do not involve ransoms.
abduction, a criminal term for kidnapping or taking of a younger individual by an older suspect. abduction is used for kidnapping a woman or a young individual.
when can you say that you are being abducted?
you are abducted if you are invited on a house party, when suddenly your colleagues won't allow you to go home nor communicate with anyone other than them. but, to say that you are being abducted, there must be force. remember, all crimes involve force.
next example.
you are abducted if, a person locks you up inside a room and you are forced to say there for a long time. sometimes, abduction involves rape or kidnapping.
can men be abducted?
base on the definition of abduction, yes. but, he should be a minor to say that he was abducted, otherwise, he was kidnapped.
what's the worst sentence or a person who comitted abduction?
the worst sentence is life sentence. but, remember, not because a person is proved of abduction doesn't mean that he/she should be put into life sentence. a criminal case and its consequences are always weighed. the consequence will always be based on how grave the action is.
that's all for crimse today...

Global Warming: Its Causes and Effects
Ano ba ang Global Warming?
Halos sa buong mundo may mga ads na nagsasabing "HELP STOP GLOBAL WARMING".
pero, bago natin pigilan ang isang problema, dapat ay alamin muna natin kung ano ito, ano ang mga sanhi nito at ang mga maaaring epekto nito.
Ang Global Warming ay ang pagkaipon ng greenhouse gases sa atmosphere ng mundo. ang global warming ay parang worst greenhouse effect.
Ano ang greenhouse effect? sa malalaking hacienda o mga flower farms kadalasan makikita ang greenhouse. ito ay parang isang bahay na gawa sa salamin. bakit salamin? dahil sa salamin ay makakatagos ang ilaw o sinag ng araw. ang mga halaman ay nangangailangan ng sinag ng araw upang gumawa ng pagkain at magdevelope. sa processong ito, hindi lahat ng sinag ng araw na tumatama sa halaman ay inaabsorb nito, ang mga sobrang sinag ng araw ay ibinabalik ng halaman o ung tinatawag na reflection. sa prosesong ito, nakakabalik ang araw palabas ng greenhouse at ang tamang kailangang init ay naiiwan sa loob.
ang tinutukoy kong worst greenhouse effect ay ang hindi na pagbalik ng init ng araw palabas, bagkus ay nakukulong ito sa loob ng greenhouse. kung ganito ang mangyayari ay matutuyo ang mga halamang hindi kailangan ng sobrang init.
ganoon rin ang nangyayari sa Global Warming, kapag dumami ang bilang ng greenhouse gases sa atmosphere ng mundo, makukulong ang init sa loob ng mundo at hindi na makakalabas. kapag nangyari iyon ay masyadong magiging mainit sa mundo. at sa sobrang init ay pati mga yelo sa antartic at atlantic oceans ay matutunaw. sa laki ng mga yelong ito ay maaaring lumubog lahat ng maliliit o malalaking isla sa mundo, at iyon ay hindi maganda dahil lahat ng nilalang sa lupa ay mamamatay.
ANO ANG SANHI NG PAG-ACCUMULATE NG GREENHOUSE GASES SA ATMOSPHERE?
isa na rito ay ang pagsusunog.
ang pagsusunog ng kahit na anong bagay ay nagpapadagdag sa dami ng greenhouse gases sa atmosphere. ang hindi alam ng ilan, tuwing magsusunog ay naglalabas o nag-eemit ng Carbon monoxide, Carbon dioxide at iba pang nakakasamang hangin.
MGA URI NG PAGSUSUNOG:
1. paggawa ng uling
2. pagkakaingin
3. pagsunog ng plastik, papel atbp.
ang mga nabanggit ay ilan lamang sa uri ng pagsusunog na malaki ang naibibigay o naidadagdag na greenhouse gases sa atmosphere...
TANDAAN: prevention is better than cure.
kung habang maaga say maiiwasan natin ang pag-accumulate ng greenhouse gases sa atmosphere ay maiiwasan din natin ang malaking pinsalang dulot ng global warming...

Bringing of Cellphone in Public and Private Highschools to be BANNED?
what's your reactions?
for me bringing of cellphones in schools SHOULD NOT be banned.
as we all know, cellphones are now part of a person's necessity. it helps us communicate with other people without ease.
we students have many different reasons for bringing fones to school. one of those reasons is we need it for emergency purposes.
what are those?
1. if we left something at home, we can text or call our parents or whoever is in our house to bring it for us.
2. if ever classes were suspended when we're already at school, we can text our parents or guardians to fetch us, especially when raining.
3. if there are unexpected incidents in school (e.g accident) we can easily contact our parents to inform them.
4. if ever there's fire or earthquakes, we can inform anyone what our condition is and where we are.
those are just some of our reasons for bringing our phones to school.
if we are to remember, over the past years, there were terrible earthquakes that happened during school hours. some of the schools collapsed, trapping some students inside. their cellphones helped the authorities to save them and know that they're still alive.
for me, i suggest not a total ban, but moderation of cellphone usage. even us, college students are always told to moderate our use of cellphones during school hours. we just need cooperation and understanding from students and teachers....
