Gabriela Women\u2019s Party slammed President Rodrigo Duterte, calling him \u201cmacho-facist\u201d for ordering government troops to shoot female New People\u2019s Army (NPA) members in the vagina.<\/p>\n

Responding to the President\u2019s latest anti-women remark in February 7, Gabriela Representative Emmi de Jesus said that Duterte presented himself as the \u201cepitome of misogyny and fascism terribly rolled in one.\u201d<\/p>\n

“Duterte latest nasty remark openly encourages violence against women, contributes to the impunity on such, and further confirms himself as the most dangerous macho-fascist in the government right now,\u201d De Jesus said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is pushing the fascist Armed Forced of the Philippines (AFP) to commit more bloody human rights violations and grave abuses of international humanitarian law, and takes state terrorism against women and the people to a whole new level,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

De Jesus stressed that they will never allow such foul remarks go unquestioned at a time when the troops is intensifying its military operations and red-tagging across the country on alleged opponents of the Philippine government.<\/p>\n

In his speech during a merienda<\/em> with former rebels, Duterte directed the military to shoot the female NPAs in the vagina but clarified that these women would not be killed.<\/p>\n

\u201cBring that. Tell the soldiers. “There’s a new order coming from mayor. We won’t kill you. We will just shoot your —- so that…” If there are no —- it would be useless,\u201d he said in Bisaya.<\/p>\n

Duterte also questioned why women would join the NPA movement\u00a0when they even have\u00a0families of their own.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can’t even return to your families for how many years. Christmas, New Year, your child’s birthday, your birthday. You won’t even show up. You gave birth to your children then you leave them behind,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou should not have given birth to your children,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the lawmaker also hit back at Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque\u2019s statement that feminists are sometimes \u201coveracting\u201d when it comes to the President\u2019s infamous rude humor.<\/p>\n

“You know, sometimes, these feminists are really a bit OA. I mean, that’s funny. Come on. Just laugh,” Roque said on February 7.<\/p>\n

De Jesus said that Duterte and his “minions” are prompting women to hold a protest on February 14 for the One Billion Rising event and on the International Women\u2019s Day on March 18.<\/p>\n

“They should expect more women to speak up and reject this style of macho-fascist leadership,\u201d she stressed.<\/p>\n

The solon explained that standing up for women\u2019s rights \u201cwill never be too much under a regime that brazenly degrades and disrespects women.\u201d<\/p>\n
