LACK OF PEACE AND
ORDER
What are the peace and order
conditions in the country today? Every
day, we hear from the radio or read in
the newspapers about killings, robbery
hold-ups especially in jeepneys and
passenger buses and taxis, rape with
homicide, etc.

The occurrence of such gloomy picture may be
attributed to the following
causes:
1. Ideology. Some Filipinos have embraced the communistic ideology.
2. Poverty. Because of extreme necessity of basic needs especially food, some people resort to petty
thefts, jewelry snatchings, holdups especially in jeepneys, buses, and taxis and robbery.
3. Get-rich-quick mentality. Some people have this mentality and they engage in bank holdups and
robberies, kidnaps for ransom, and carnapping's from which they get away with hundreds of
thousands and millions of pesos. Graft and corruption in the government is rampant, too.
4. Lack of spiritual and moral values. People with rich spiritual and moral values rarely commit crimes
against others. It is the unprincipled individuals who consider that what are yours and mine are
also theirs.
5. Ineffective law enforcement. When criminality is rampant it means that law enforcement is
ineffective.

SEX PROBLEMS
The more serious sex problems are the following:
1. Pre-marital relations – having sexual relations before legal marriage.
2. Extra-marital relations – married people having sexual relations with others not their
spouses.
3. Frigidity and impotence – Frigidity is the absence of sexual desire on the part of a
woman and impotence is the failure of erection of the male organ. If the woman is
frigid and the man is sexually strong, or if the woman is not frigid and the man is
sexually impotent, sexual incompatibility results. The sexual desire of a partner
cannot be satisfied by the other.
4. Prostitution – A woman is paid immediately, usually in the form of money, after
having sex with a man.
