Ayala Alabang made it to Twitter's Top 10 Trending Topics worldwide earlier this evening, due to the "condom with presciption" ordinance at Barangay Ayala Alabang in Muntinlupa City.
Ayala Alabang peaked at #9 on Twitter and browsing the tweets, a lot of people find the ordinance funny and stupid.
As reported on GMA's 24 Oras earlier, an ordinance was passed in Brgy. Ayala Alabang stating that pharmacies within the area should
ask for presciption before selling condom and contraceptive pills.
The ordinance took effect starting today, February 24.
According to the spokesperson from Barangay Ayala Alabang, the ordinance was made to prevent pre-marital s-x.
That means, physicians will be giving condom and pill prescriptions
only to married couples.
I find it as a useless ordinance because people would just go outside Barangay Ayala Alabang so they could buy condom even without
prescription.
It's kinda burdensome on the part of those who want to use it, to
consult first a physician and ask for a prescription.
In the end, couples would just end up doing their "private thing" without condom especially if they can't resist the urge.
Even international artist Lea Salonga disagrees with that "condom with
prescription" ordinance in Ayala Alabang. She says on Twitter, "You
now need a prescription to purchase condoms in Barangay Ayala, Alabang. The pill, I can totally understand, but CONDOMS??? Really???"
