Metro’s half-naked ‘machos’ be warned

Display a naked chest while walking along the investors’ route and face the wrath of the state for your machismo.
Tourists and investors will be discouraged if they see half-naked men walking in public places as if they were just strolling in their own backyards, Fernando said.

"All we ask of our gentlemen is (for them) to be gentlemen," Fernando said. "Dress appropriately in public places. Be presentable. Look good so Metro Manila will look good."

The MMDA will also be strict in enforcing sanctions against people who engage in drinking sprees on the sidewalks as well as those who hang clothes to dry in public view.

Fernando said seeing such things will not impress tourists or investors who may want to set up shop in the country.

****Dress for Success!

I wonder if they are to enforce these with sanctions if these will pass constitutional muster? Taking it to another exterme, what if it's pasyon and the person is engaging in panata, thus walking half-naked and shriving himself? This is then expression of religious freedom. Hmm.. My imagination is running wild again.

kung ayaw ng mga girls na dumikit hita nila sa mga lalaki sa jeep dapat siguro matuto na silang sumabit at wag na umupo sa loob.

[Dvorak]

Eh kasi yung ibang lalaki dyan, ang laki-laki ng in-ooccupy na space. Nakabukaka ng sobra. Puede naman ng partial lang. Yung mga ladies, ipit na ipit na tuloy. Dapat katulad sa trains and subways. Kung ano lang ang allocated space mo, yung lang ang i-occupy mo.

Dito sa NY subways, ayaw nila ng dumidikit ang tao. Mas may distance and 'personal space' dito. Puede kaya to sa Pinas? Ewan lang.

kulit ni lili at sandrin! have you been drinking j/k

nway, on hanging clothes to dry in public view...i think manila already has an ordinance regarding this though hardly being implemented. the problem is in many apartments buildings there are not enough space to hang clothes. even the newly constructed ones.

[marites4]

they should hang them in the back where it's not visible.

[dudz]

of course they have space in the back but in many cases they are not enough. especially when the family is huge or there are many occupants in one unit (two or more families, extended families, transient relatives, student relatives).
