    2. 1:19 Perfect example of selfishness. Takot bang idivorce ng asawa kaya you're projecting your fear on other people?

      Delete
    3. Stop shoving your religious beliefs down everyone's throats. Kayo lang ang wag gumamit ng divorce!

      Delete
    4. 1:19, eh di huwag kang mag-divorce. Takot ka sa hatian ng properties at alimony?

      Delete
    5. 1:19 if divorce is not for you then dont avail of it. Let those who need it have it. Not everyone is blessed with a happy marriage.

    6. yung ayaw ng divorce di wag mag divorce!pero wag pigilin at idamay yung may gusto

    7. Yes to divorce!

      Ang annulment kung tutuusin mas pinaglaruan ang sanctity ng marriage dahil ang annulment eh pinapawalang bisa ang kasal, that the marriage was null and void at walang kasalang naganap kaya ito ay hindi nagexist - even with the church ceremony and reception and all the works.

      Yes to divorce. Wag na pilitin ang dalawang mag asawang wala nang pag-ibig sa isa’t isa, na humahantong sa isa or parehas na nagkakaroon ng extramarital relationships dahil doon nila nakukuha ang happiness sa bagong partner nila. Hindi ba yan ang usual scenario sa mga mag asawa na kalaunan eh naghihiwalay ng informal at nagkakaroon ng bagong karelasyon? Hindi ba at mas nabab@b0y ang sanctity ng marriage sa ganyang scenario?

      Wag nang pilitin ang mag asawa na magsama sa iisang bubong at nagiging mala-impierno lang sa loob ng tahanan nila. Dahil sila ay hindi na magkasundo pa and worst of all may mga batang naiipit sa unhealthy home situation.

      So, yes to divorce! 💅

    9. On point! If u don’t want it then don’t avail of it. Sa may need nito let them have it and set them free. If Hindi kayu maka relate bcoz u’re blessed with a happy marriage then just be thankful. But be considerate sa mga may need nito.

    10. Bakit annulment pwede eh pinayagan din naman maghiwalay ang mag asawa, kalokoha yung walang kasal na naganap or exist. So for me dapat pwede na din ang divorce.

    11. 1:19 di kayo required kung ayaw nyo, kaloka

    12. I agree with her. Marami kasi ang hindi nakaka-intindi sa Divorce law. Akala nila pag may divorce law sa Pilipinas, e mandatory na dapat mag-divorce ang mag-asawa. hahaha - Choice lang po ito para sa mga mag-asawang trapped sa isang abusive and unhappy marriage. kung masaya kayo, nagmamahalan at happy, di nyo kailangan mag-divorce. our senators and congressmen na nag-"no" sa divorce - reason nila? because they are happily married. Like Richard Gomez and Sen. Cynthia Villar. happily married daw sila kaya ni-reject nila ang Divorce law. mga educated people yan, mga mambabatas...pero mukhang hindi nila naiintindihan ang batas. hindi para sa kanila ang divorce law. yung mga ayaw sa Divorce, mas pinipili nila na mangabit o mag-cheat na lang kesa mag-hiwalay or magpapaka-martir na kahit bugbog-sarado na sila araw araw pati mga anak nila, ok lang, kasi di raw dapat paghiwalayin ang mag-asawa sabi ng bibliya or mas pinipili nila na abandonahin na lang ang pamilya. kawawa ang maiiwang need itaguyod ang mga anak nang walang tulong galing sa asawang nambubugbog or sumakabilang bahay. sa Divorce law di pwede yan... ang korte ang magdedecide kung magkano ang sustentong kailangan ibigay sa mga naiwan.

    13. Ayaw ko ng Divorce, for me and my husband syempre pero bakit natin ipagkakait sa iba na kailangan at gusto. Hindi lahat tayo swerte sa marriage natin huwag natin ipagkait sa iba ang masayang married life na meron tayo. As for the values na nawawala daw kapag may Divorce na, bakit ano bang values ang meron tayo ngayon? ilang married couples ba ang may mga side partners dahil di na sila masaya sa asawa nila? ilang separated couples ba ang meron ng kanya kanyang partner at anak kahit legally married pa sila.

      Delete
    14. Actually yung Annulment dito sa atin, paramg pinahirap na Divorce na lang din naman. Ano un sinasabi nila na Annulment kasi ipinapa-declare na walang bisa ang kasal for some reason? eh bakit for the rich and privileged lang siya hindi kaya ng common tao ang mga gastos at talaga ng proseso. Pero ang bottomline, pinapawalang bisa na din ang kasal para makapag pakasal ulit. Hay naku

  2. Yes to Divorce. Senators should review this according to thier constituents need and not because masaya sila sa married life nila. Kaloka

  3. NO to divorce! Wag magpakasal! It's that simple! At pag nagpakasal panindigan at pagdusahan dahil sinumpaan nyo yan. Kung hindi na talaga kaya, makipaghiwalay nang hindi nagdidivorce that way walang chance magkaron uli ng biktima yung abuser. Period!

    10. ang jurassic ng mentality. no daw sa Divorce pero "makipaghiwalay nang hindi nagdidivorce"... HUH?!

      currently, sa PH the only out of a married person from his/her marital obligation is through annulment and dyou have any idea how awfully expensive and lengthy the process of annulment is? paano na lang yung mga nakatali sa physically abusive relationship na walang money to burn for such proceeding? for sure if maimplement man ang divorce sa Pinas, there will be alterations and tailored to cater to the Filipinos. sa US, all states recognize “no-fault” divorces. this means there doesn’t need to be a specific incident or circumstance that caused the marriage to end. instead, couples can cite “irreconcilable differences” as the reason the marriage didn’t work out.

      ALSO, divorce often comes with stricter rules and regulations regarding the dissolution of the relationship, especially if children are involved. usually, the parents must agree on a custody arrangement ahead of time, or a judge will decide what’s best for the children and determine custody during divorce proceedings.

      kaya I agree with Maxene sa issue nato.

    11. 1:17 kung di mo talaga maintindihan, ganito na lang - meron na rin naman annulment. Mas bibigyan lang ng security, rights, and protection yung mga tao pag may divorce. Tapos yung inabuse, may chance siya at a new life pinagsasasabi mo na hindi na mang-aabuse yung partner? Walang makakapigil sa mga yan kung ganyan talaga sila.

    12. Wala tayo sa fairytale story. May mga abusadong asawa sa mundong ito. Pasalamat ka at hindi ikaw yun. Kung ipagdarasal mo talaga ang divorce.

    13. Ang laking tulong ng divorce sa mga babaeng niwawang hiya ng kanilang asawa. No! Pagtitiisan ang batugan at nanggugulpi??? Ano kaibahan ng mghiwalay ng walang divorce at mghiwalay ng meron sa mata ng Diyos???? Mali yata pgkaintindi mo ante kung totoong sinusunod mo ang Diyos! Kalokohan!

    14. Akala mo ba wala nang chance mang biktima ang abuser kung hiniwalayan mo ng walang divorce??? KALOKOHAN! Tingin ko hindi tunay na naiintindihan ang divorce. Please mg inform ka po bago sumatsat wala naman palang alam.

    17. Grabe ka 1.17 - wag selfish. If you don't want divorce, just don't get it. But let us, who wants divorce, have it. We need it. We are the only country na walang divorce. And let's face the fact na may mga tao na abused sa marriage. Ako for example, I was abused by my husband, physically and emotionally. Matagal na kami naghiwalay, may pamilya na sya na iba while I am still in trauma. I want to change my name back to my maiden, i want to buy properties for me and my kids but I can't because I am legally tied to him. So are you saying I have to just let it be? And this situation is very normal in the Philippines. There are lots of abuses kasi walang divorce. Kasi forced and tao na mag stay or forced na legally bind. Let's all move on going forward and not back.

      Delete
    18. patawa tong si 117. so paano na lang yung mga babae/lalaki na biktima ng domestic violence? hindi nga sila naghiwalay, kaliwa't kanan naman ang kabet.. adultery/ concubinage ang gusto mong mangyari eh di bin@boy nyo lang din ang "sanctity" kuno ng kasal.

      Ever heard of the separation of church and state?!

    22. 1:17 This one... sounds like someone na takot mahiwalayan ng asawa, hahaha!

      4:32 abusive partners can be reported and rot in jail and I won't care really. But the victim partners have a chance to move on legally. Why should they be stuck with the a$$#at and be miserable all their lives?!

      Delete
    23. sinong magsabing walang option? di bala merong legal separation at annulment of marriage. pero pahirapan kamo, op kors kasi di dapat binabasta basta ang pag aasawa at paghihiwalay. yun yung point dun.

    2. 5:02 Kaplastikan yan. Kung ganyan ang pananaw, mas ine-encourage nyo na mag-live in na lang yung mga tao kesa magpakasal. Tingin mo mas ok yun?

      To the religious, better ba to live in sin kesa magpakasal, magkamali, at mag-move on?

      Sa mga nakatira sa ulap, kamusta naman ang mga live-in partner na bastardo ang anak(ergo minimal inheritance), walang shared medical benefits at walang say sa medical decisions?

      Delete
    3. Personally I have nothing against living in together, I did it with my now husband. We met & live o/s & it's not a big deal here, nearly everyone I know did it leading up to marriage.

      However despite living together I know a few people who still split after marrying. Kaya natatawa ako sa mga tao na nagsasabi na "di mo kasi kinilala ng mabuti eh". Guys kahit yung mga nag live in before marriage naghihiwalay din. Minsan hindi talaga kaya. One couple I'm thinking of, the guy abandoned her when their baby was a few months old! Totally unexpected, gulat kami lahat!!! Something like 7 years together with 4 years mag live in! Di magaapply yung mga statememt na "di mo kasi pinagisipan" or "di ka kasi sure"!

      She has primary custody & has a partner who is a great stepdad to their kid. The kid now has a great role model and a stable home life. The no to divorce people here would insist that she and the child were better off remaining legally bound in a loveless marriage with a deadbeat dad. Di ko talaga gets.

    4. Ano para makapag asawa uli? LOL

    5. Why not?

      People deserve second chances.

      Delete
    6. Madaming nag-live in and yet nag-iba ang ugali after a major change, like having kids. Or joblessness.

      And right now, there is no legal cohabitation status, so pag nasa life and death situation ang live in partner sa hospital, hindi pwedeng mag-decide ang kinakasama. Ni hindi pwedeng mag-stay sa bedside kung ganung ka-atribida ang magulang. Illegitimate children from live in status can only inherit half of what a legitimate child can. Hindi rin pwede mag-share ng insurance and medical benefits.

      The law better work both ways. Marriage BY LAW is but another legal contract. There should be a way to dissolve it properly.

      Delete
    7. yung ang point mga neng. ginagawa nyo kasing easy peasy mga bagay bagay. gustong mag asawa, gorah. ay ayoko na pala, gora. we don't wanna live in a society like that kaya ayaw namin sa divorce. saka may legal separation at annulment naman, di bala?

    8. 5:02 wag mo po kami idamay sa fears mo na bigla ka iwan ng asawa mo LOL

  5. Binigyan tayo ng kalayaan ng Panginoon sa kung anong gusto nating gawin sa buhay. Tayo ay temporary lang sa mundong ito. Lilipas lang ang lahat at haharap sa Diyos pagdating ng panahon. Magandang mamuhay sa mundo na sumusunod sa kalooban ng Diyos para tayo'y kalulugdan Niya. Isipin mo muna ang damdamin ng Diyos bago ang damdamin mo. Pag ang sariling kalooban mo ang sinusunod mo hindi ka papunta sa Diyos papalayo ka.

Pag ang lady boss napangasawa ng palamunin na lalake, possible na makakuha ng spouse support ang lalake esp pag magaling lawyer nya. Tapos tatalak nnaman kayo pag ganun eksena. Pero kung keri lang sanyo, sure why not. Dapat ang hingin nyo na law na ipasa jan ay child support. Mga bata kase kawawa pag may parents na naghihiwalay.

Yung mga nasa sitwasyon na naghiwalay or nagkamali ng decision ang di tututol dito. Marriage is not a trial and error. Bago ka magpakasal, ipagdasal mo at kilatisin mong maige. Mas Kawawa mga babae dito. Mas madali na ngayon magloko o magpabaya sa relasyon ang lalaki pag nagka divorce.

  24. Yes to divorce. For all those people who are anti-divorce, all I can say is I envy your naivete na "di nyo kasi pinansin ang red flags" at "di nyo kasi pinagdasal" o "bilis nyo kasi magsuko". Guys ang sheltered nyo hahaha kung sa tingin nyo na sobrang babaw ang mga dahilan kung bakit naghihiwalay ang mga tao. Like yes, maybe some people get divorced for shallow reasons but believe it or not for the people I know who got divorced it wa a long and agonising decision.

    I live overseas now and super big deal ang Domestic Violence dito, the government is really trying its best to keep people safe and AWAY from domestic partners who are abusive, yet sa Pilipinas the message is "ay, sorry pinakasalan mo, you're tied to that person forever, work through it nalang!"

    And the argument of "well at least kung walang divorce, iwanan mo nalang pero married pa din kayo so the abuser can't abuse anyone else" - WRONG! The abuser can definitely get another bf/gf and abuse them, the only thing this now the abused person can't move on with their life and find love again.

    Believe it or not, some problems only emerge years after a marriage, so is that person doomed to be with an abusive partner forever na vinivictim blame pa na "kasalanan mo kasi eh, di mo talaga pinag-isipan nung nagpakasal kayo."

    Some examples of people I know who divorced:

    - Guy became schizophrenic a few years after marriage. He physically attacked his then-wife and is now committed to a mental institution.

    - Guy was confused about his sexuality and felt pressured to marry.

    - Guy cheated on his wife multiple times. Question lang, if you have a friend and her boyfriend cheats on her and she's absolutely miserable, do you tell her "stick it out", pero parang as soon as they're married and she's miserable and the guy cheats, you'll say "ah nagpakasal kayo eh, work it out nalang!" even if the guy had ZERO indications of cheating previously?

    - I have a tita who didn't get divorced, but she was abandoned by her husband and left to raise 3 small kids by herself. So people who say no to divorce think that people like her don't deserve to get into a loving married relationship ever? (Oh my cousins are grown up na, their sperm donor is still a deadbeat.)

    So to the people who say NO to divorce, all I say is I envy you that you think these kinds of things can just be solved by "ah basta you shouldn't give up on your spouse, you made a promise so work through it nalang."

    For the record I'm happily married, never divorced, and all I can say is I hope everyone on this earth has their chance of finding their own happiness!!!

    1. Yikes. A family friend of ours split up from her husband. Naging drug addict kasi sya. Buti nalang may kaya at na-annul (but after a looooong time).

      Her son would tell his mom that he would be protecting her and his little sister when the dad would have one of his episodes. Nakakaawa na at that age, yun yung pinagkaaabalahan nya, to protect his mom and sister.

      What about if a parent is abusive? Mas nakakaawa to keep an abuser around children! Even if hindi ang kid ang inaabuse, nakakatrauma kaya na makita na inaabuse ang magulang mo! And what are you teaching the child? That it's OK to hit other people when you're angry? Or that you shouldn't stand up for yourself and just take it when you are being abused?

      Staying together is not always what's best for kids!

    5. Hey. I am a product of broken family. My dad left my mom for another woman; they are living as a family, up to this time.

      My mom had to raise me and my two brothers by herself. Yung dad ko nag bigay lang ng support kung kelan nya (or ng babae nya) gusto. Pero right now more than 15 years na kaming walang support. Pero okay lang. Nakaya naman namin, thanks to my mom who stayed strong kasi wala naman sya ibang choice kung hindi magpaka-strong eh. Sometimes naiisip namin ng mga kapatid ko, sana may divorce para hindi na nahihirapan si mommy at malaya sya magpakasal sa lalaking nagtrato sa kanya ng tama.

      Kaso wala eh, hanggang ganon lang sila ng mom ko.

      We witnessed the emotional and even physical and spiritual toll that this set up had on my mom. Kung magiging malaya sya completely from the dead marriage I think she can start fresh and it’s never too late then.

  28. I am a divorce believer eversince. When my dad passed away, his body was taken away from us from the province to Manila, by his first family. My parents were together for almost 31 years versus the less than 10 years with the original family. Before he died, we knew that he wanted to be buried where we lived, but then, his last wish has no strength.
    His first family and our family have no rift at all. They knew we existed as they were way older than us. In our minds, since we have a good relationship and we thought that they fully accepted us, stories like this in death will never happen, but it did.It was very painful esp to my Mom but she never complained. We knew, as we have seen and heard, second families having no say , when it comes to death.
    In the end, our visits to our dad became less and less as traveling to Manila was challenging and longer due to traffic grid and my Mom's old age.
    My dad has a tombstone beside my mom's now after she passed away, too. My dad's body wasn't there but they're finally together in spirit after being separated for 34 years by circumstances, like the absence of divorce.
    Their relationship was considered illegal and my mom a mistress for so long, regardless of the kind of life and love they had and lived. The absence of divorce continued the mistake of choosing the wrong partner and punished the woman and her children that came after that mistake. We carried that burden until, it was recently approved in the Phils. My family is finally free, although my parents are no longer with us.

    1. I feel you. My dad had a first wife. Kaso nagkaron ng adultery yung first wife and so they parted ways and my dad eventually met my mom and they were together for 31 years. But when my dad died, the oldest daughter of his first family insisted na sa kanila iburol si daddy. Ang awkward talaga kasi yung mommy nya, 33 yrs na din na may ibang partner at mga anak. Di ko alam kung saan nya nakuha yung idea na dapat sa nanay nya iburol ang daddy. Yun pala akala nya may insurance sila na makukuha. Eh kaso buhay pa si daddy, nilipat nya lahat ng properties nya sa pangalan ng mommy. tapos pati insurances na claim na. Ayun galit na galit sa amin yung oldest daughter ng first family. Pero alam mo, in my heart, wala na sya sa lugar. Kasi 31 yrs na magkasama parents ko eh. Pundar na nila yun. At yung mommy nya 33 yrs na din na may ibang pamilya. mukhang pera lang talaga sya.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Marriage is a big risk, kahit gaano pang paghahanda ang gawin nyo, never nyo masasabi na ready talaga kayo for marriage. People change, hindi forever na loyal and mabait ang magiging asawa mo. Hindi din impossible na at some point maging abusive or magkaroon ng bad vices kahit gaano kabait dati. Hindi maganda ang mentality na magpakasal lang kung talagang ready na and magtiis and mag-dusa once kasal na, dahil lahat ng tao and relationship nagbabago.

    Divorce isn't the "easy way out". Ignorant and stupid lang nagsasabi na divorce will lead to infidelity and more broken marriages. Just acquiring a lawyer for divorce requires a lot of money. Akala nyo ba parang celebs yan na they can divorce easily? But even some celebs are locked in bitter divorce battles like Angelina Jolie na until now pinaglalabanan nila ni Brad Pitt ang assets nila. And that's after Bad Pitt has already been proven to be abusive. Divorce isn't easy.

    Most ordinary people divorce as a last resort. People who get married don't think of divorce right away. Everyone wants a chance at happy ever after. But sometimes it doesn't work out. Divorce is a very stressful process on everyone lalo na if kids are involved. People do it because there's no other choice.

    A lot of people stay and try to work on their marriages. Hindi porke may divorce eh people rush to get it. Only those who don't know the divorce process think getting divorced is a piece of cake. It's still a legal process that can take time and lots of money.

    Alam nyo ba ang hirap na pinagdaanan ng mga kababaihan just to be granted their own rights and be able to divorce their husbands? Back before women got divorce and voting rights, a wife could be abused, maimed, and even murdered by their husbands because women were considered inferior and their husband's property. A wife could be declared insane just by their husband's word, no legal process, and be kidnapped and be locked away in an asylum until they died. A wife could be imprisoned in her own home by her husband because she had no rights and she couldn't escape him because by law, she wasn't a person but a property and her husband could do whatever he wanted with her. And these are true stories, these things really happened to many women throughout history, and are still happening to women today.

    Divorce was, and in many cases still is, inherently a woman's fight for freedom. Most countries have progressed to allow divorce. Even the traditionally Catholic countries like Spain, France, and Italy have divorce laws. Why? Because their governments managed to separate from the Church and their society is not influenced by religious propaganda.

    Divorce is a human right, bakit pilit nyo nilalabanan ang progress?

      Go to Reddit and many forums and read the many stories of the adults who wish their parents DID divorce instead of staying together. Those kids had a very rough time dealing with two parents who hated each other but stayed together: fighting all the time, taking out their anger on their kids, affecting everyone around them with the negativity and misery. Many of their kids ended up not talking to their parents in adulthood because of the damages they've suffered.

      And really, Oprah? That woman is known for pushing her own agenda and even promoting criminals and serial rapists in her talk shows. She has done more damage than good. Nobody should be listening to her.

To not pass the legislation based on religious affiliation is such a baseless logic. Not allowing divorce, yet tolerating adultery, cheating etc, just sounds ridiculous to me. People who are married but is eventually causing harm to the each other, to the point of abuse,be it physical, verbal, mental or emotional should be allowed to walk away and find their peace.

  46. Yung tito ko sa Japan ay kasal sa kanyang Japanese wife for 18 years. They are happily married with 3 kids. One happy family. Take note: may divorce sa bansang Japan.

    Yung tita ko naman sa Pinas ay hiwalay sa kanyang asawa for the last 16 years. They have one child na binata. Up to this day, sila ay kasal sa mata ng batas. They are married with conjugal rights. Hindi pwedeng bumili ng ari-arian ang isa kung wala yung pirma ng isa. Bawal mag-apply ng bank loan ang isa kung hindi pipirma yung isa. Wala na sila for 16 years pero hanggang ngayon ay nakatali pa rin sila sa isa't-isa.

    My auntie is very happy with her single life while yung ex-husband naman niya ay masaya din sa buhay kasama ang kanyang life partner. Mayroon silang isang anak. That child is extra-marital and illegitimate kahit ang batang ito ay nabuo out of pagmamahal. The guy cannot marry her life partner because he is still married with my auntie.

    Ano yung point ko?

    First, the presence of divorce in Japan didn't ruin my uncle's family. Hindi totoo na wawasakin ng divorce ang maraming pamilya. Ang sisira sa isang pamilya ay yung mag-asawang involved. Yung dalawang tao. Hindi ang divorce law.

    Second, kahit walang divorce sa Pilipinas, nasira pa rin ang pamilya ng tita ko dahil nagloko yung asawa niya. Meaning to say, kesyo may divorce o wala sa isang bansa, broken marriage and broken family will still exist. Kasi kung divorce pala ang wawasak sa isang pamilya, eh 'di sana walang hiwalayan sa bansang Pilipinas.

    Divorce is not the problem.

    Divorce is the solution to the problem.

    Divorce doesn't break marriages and families.

    Divorce fix the lives of the broken family.

    Nilalagay nito sa ayos yung kapakanan ng mga bata at yung kapakanan nung dalawang matanda matapos masira ang kanilang pamilya.

    Ayaw mo sa divorce because you are very happy with your married life? Then I'm very happy for you.

    Pero hindi lahat ay pinalad kagaya mo.

    Kaya huwag mo sanang ipagkait sa iba yung batas na magbibigay sa kanila ng bagong buhay.
