     A lot of women together with their children are experiencing violence. However, there is a highlight that can protect these citizens. In its decision, the CA pointed out a provision in Section 34 of Republic Act No. 9262, the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act of 2004.

     LEGAL PROVISION: It states that “in every case of violence against women and their children… any person, private individual or police authority or barangay official who, acting in accordance with law, responds or intervenes without using violence or restraint greater than necessary to ensure the safety of the victim, shall not be liable for any criminal, civil or administrative liability….”

Many people simply do not understand the impact that it has on the female population in the Philippines. Although there are tons of other important concerns to focus on, this issue is normally over looked and pushed to the side. It is only right to inform people of the meaning of violence against women, the impact this problem has on women, and the advantages and disadvantages of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) that helps protect them.

We are all born the same way: as humans, and therefore deserve the same rights and acceptance as long as we all follow the laws and comply with the norms set to protect all individuals. But throughout history certain groups of people have faced discrimination, segregation, and injustice because they are of a specific race, skin color and/or culture that some of us consider to be part of a lower category of human beings, as well as the fact of holding different beliefs and ideals along with preferences when it comes to things such as gender and choice of lifestyle.

Discrimination against this group of people is unfortunate, but extremely common nowadays; more and more individuals are being harassed, not compensated with adequate wages, and/or fired from their jobs because of the way they sexually identify themselves. This strikes a fear in gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender employees who feel as though they must produce more than the average worker in order to not be affected or expelled from their jobs, often leading them to not take illness days off, vacations, and to perhaps be more productive than the majority of their colleagues.
