00:00But you can also see there that the rights of men and women are the same.
00:06If he is the one who was raped, he can also complain.
00:12What do you call that? Is that masculinity?
00:16Is that what you call it, Atty.?
00:23If it's a woman and a man, they are both hard.
00:27Yes.
00:28For instance, there should also be no stigma that there is a house husband.
00:36Because sometimes we look down upon husbands who remain at home.
00:43It should not be like that.
00:45If the one who has the ability or the opportunity to work is the wife,
00:51we should respect the dynamics of the family.
00:54Because there should be no saying that women,
00:57the traditional view is that women are only for bed and kitchen.
01:02It's not like that anymore.
01:04We have equal obligations for the benefit of the family.
01:11And we saw that during the pandemic.
01:14Because during the pandemic, there were no more male-female roles.
01:19Because the man no longer has a job.
01:21So the woman, who is the housemaker, became the dominant.
01:26And the man became the landlady.
01:29So it has redefined our roles.
01:34And that's why it's important because this is a public information committee.
01:40This values education should be included in the curriculum.
01:46Because there should be no more gender roles.
01:51Now, we should emphasize the D.E.I.
02:00Diversity, Equality, and Inclusivity.
02:06It means that there is no distinction as to gender roles,
02:11whether male or binary, male or female.
02:15Gender now, sex, is no longer binary.
02:20There are now LGBTQI.
02:23So this is also included in the media and public information of this committee.
