When Alvin Aragon openly stated that husbands should never allow their wives to wear anything revealing in order to prevent sexualization, the entire online discussion over objectifying women began. The conversation then went on when Bong Suntay, a politician from Quezon City, made inappropriate remarks regarding Anne Curtis.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773101692404image0 (4).jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>Bulacan vice governor Alex Castro asks leaders to respect women. Josh Mercado </div>Expressing his stance on men telling women what to wear, Sexbomb Sunshine Garcia’s husband, actor and current vice governor of Bulacan Alex Castro, told ABS-CBN News on Monday, “Walang restrictions sa pananamit [si Sunshine].”“Ang mga babae ay dapat irespeto at igalang — lalung-lalo na naming mga leader. Ang may kasalanan ay ‘yung taong tumitingin — kung may halong pagnanasa. Hindi na kasalanan ng babae ‘yun,” Castro added.Citing the Sexbomb girls as examples, the actor-public servant stated that there is nothing wrong with entertainers dressing however they choose as costumes are part of the show.“Hindi ako nalalaswaan sa mga suot nila. Concert ‘yun, eh. Costume nila ‘yun. ‘Yung tumitingin [na may malisya] ang mali,” he highlighted.Throughout the Aragon public drama, Castro was one of the Sexbomb husbands who received the most admiration from netizens, who described him as a model of what a true husband should be.He reacted, “‘Yung ginagawa ko, dapat naman talagang ginagawa ng mga lalaki. Ganoon dapat ang ginagawa ng mga lalaki — suportahan ang mga asawa.”Praising his wife, he continued, “Nakita ko ‘yung saya sa asawa ko nung nag-concert. Maraming pinagdaanan ‘yung asawa ko. Nag-sacrifice siya katulad ng mga pangkaraniwang babae na naging nanay na iniwanan ang career para sa pamilya.”<div> </div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1773101744344image3 (1).jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>Alex Castro proud of wife Sunshine Garcia. Josh Mercado </div>He then revealed how his wife was body shamed, which was also connected to the topic of society&#x27;s criticism of women&#x27;s attire.“Naranasan n’yang ma-bash dahil [mataba] nga siya nung round one. Sabi ko, mas maganda na ‘yung kung anong normal mo at huwag i-pressure ang sarili. Huwag i-pressure ang sarili para lang i-impress ‘yung mga tao,” he told ABS-CBN News.“Ganyan naman talaga ang nanay. Ganyan naman talaga ang babae. ‘Yan ‘yung normal na babae na [nagbabago ang weight]. Ang pinaka-important ay nariyan pa rin ang talent niya. Magaling pa rin. Ginagawa niya ‘yung mahal n’yang gawin. Sobrang supportive ako. Tumatayo ako. Pumapalakpak ako,” he added.Ending the interview, a source close to ABS-CBN News disclosed that Castro is now being encouraged to run for governor in the upcoming elections, to which he responded, “Nung pumasok ako sa politics — 23 years ago — wala akong kamag-anak sa politics. Nagsimula lang akong SK chairman ng isang maliit na barangay. Ngayon, pinakabatang vice governor. Unfair sa mga kababayan na pag-usapan ang governorship sa panahon ngayon na marami tayong pinagdaraanan.”“I think it’s unfair na sasagutin ko kung oo or hindi. Sa akin lang, kung anong ibigay ni Lord, I’m ready. Ito talaga ‘yung ibinigay ni Lord na mission ko. Hindi ko naman mararating ito kung hindi ako ginabayan ng mga tamang tao,” he ended.
