8. OXYTOCIN
"Oxytocin is a peptide produced in the brain that was first
recognized for its role in the birth process, and also in
nursing, " said Larry Young, a behavioral neuroscientist at
Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. When an infant
suckles at his or her mother ' s breast, the stimulation
causes a release of oxytocin, which, in turn, orders the body
to "let down " milk for the baby to drink.
A hormone secreted by the posterior lobe of the
pituitary gland, a pea-sized structure at the base of the
brain. It' s sometimes known as the " cuddle hormone "
or the "love hormone, " because it is released when
people snuggle up or bond socially.

Positive physical contact
Social bonding
Sex
Breastfeeding
Childbirth
For the most part, releasing oxytocin requires one thing:
another person. While it’s traditionally associated with sex,
breastfeeding, and childbirth, almost any form of social
bonding or positive physical contact can trigger oxytocin.
One study (on chimpanzees) even found that sharing a meal
does the trick.⁶ Common triggers include:

10. ATTRACTION, LOVE
AND ATTACHMENT
Social exchange theory proposes that attraction is the
result of an exchange process. People tend to view
relationships as the result of the rewards and costs they
entail. As the relationship develops, the sharing of
activities and information contributes to increased
attraction, liking, trust, and love.

13. According to John Bowlby, a British Psychologist,
the quality of early parent-child attachment has
lasting impact on the kind of relationships people
have in later in life including romantic
relationships. The ability to form stable and close
relationships begins at infancy, in a child's
earliest experiences with a caregiver who meets
his or her needs.

17. SOGIE BILL
House Bill No. 4982 or “An Act Prohibiting
Discrimination on the Basis of Sexual Orientation,
Gender Identity or Expression (SOGIE) and Providing
Penalties Therefor”.
The SOGIE Equality Bill is meant to fulfill the rights set
forth in the 1987 constitution, particularly the equal
protection clause. It recognizes the LGBTQ++ as equals
and ensures that their rights are protected in as much
as everyone’s is.
The bill also deems as discriminatory the act of forcing any
person to undertake any medical or psychological
examination to alter his SOGIE, the publication of
information intending to “out” a person without his or her
consent, public speech meant to vilify LGBTQ+, the
harassment and coercion of the latter by anyone especially
those involved in law enforcement, and gender profiling.
Children under parental authority are given particular
attention in the bill, as the prevention of the expression of
their SOGIE will also be penalized. Any act of harassment or
coercion directed to the LGBTQ+ is a discriminatory act
under the SOGIE.
