FREEDOM / RIGHTS

As soon as a person opens its eyes to the world, he/she already acquired its own human right. From where you were born, you already have right to life. In line with this, we have the right of freedom. As an individual, we have freedom of speech, expression, etc. 

Freedom of expression of a person starts when it is necessary. Simple things like freedom of rejecting an offer, freedom of saying you do not want this and that, or freedom of telling everybody else that it is okay to say anything you want as long as you know where you stand and as long as you know your limitations. However, there are some people that are not granted of freedom or of any rights. This maybe because of what the society is hindering them to, or what their tradition are telling them to. Everybody should enjoy their freedom. If a man starts to harass you, you can say "stop it" and tell them that they are being rude to you. 

I would like to encourage everybody, regardless of gender, to stand up and exercise your rights and freedom to make a change and fight for yourselves. Rights of a person start when he/she is being opposed. Do not forget to tell them "no" if it disrespects you.

Women suffrage were well known in the early 19th century and it is defined as women's right to vote, it is one way for women to gain a voice in that time where they were still being considered as child-bearers and homemakers only. In 1903, with the Association of Ilonga Feminists by Pura Villanueva Kalaw raised the call for women's suffrage until 1928, where American suffragettes Mrs. Carie Chapman Catt and Aleta Jacobs organized an association focused on civic works, the campaign between two American suffragettes together with local women was regularized by the National League of Filipino Women and the Women’s Citizen’s League.
