Hindi Ito Bastos (2)

Howie Severino's controversial documentary on the the women of Kalayaan, Laguna who perform a nearly 200-year old ritual that consists of playfully parading and displaying wooden phalluses during weddings. The ritual celebrates marriage and binds communities. The MTRCB found the documentary to have "offensive content" and suspended the award-winning documentary program for two weeks.

Thank you for posting.  I never realized how rich and diverse my culture is. I subscibed to National Geographics and have read about different cultures around the world, but I overlooked the fact or should I say, I never was aware of these rituals until now.

ang masakit na katotohanan na ang bagong henerasyon ay hindi na na-a-appreciate ang lumang kultura ng pinoy, maraming salamat sa dokyung ito at pinakita nito na talagang mayaman ang kulturang pinoy at marapat lamang na hindi kalimutan o pabayaan

@warnation101 Indeed.

Even si adam at ni eve nga...

Sila walang malice nung di pa nila nakain ung fruit sa eden...

Then after kinain na ni adam at ni eve... yun,

Kuha na sila leafs para takpan na ung katawan nila...

I'm proud na ganun ung culture natin...

feeling nila bastos yan...

Pero nasa 10 commandments ba na bawal humubad at walang malice?

Diba wala...

[warnation101]

Ang Kristyanismo ang naglagay ng malice sa mga tradisyon ng mga ninuno natin e. Sila ang sumira sa tunay na kulturang Pilipino.
