Real-life decisions
Six situations you could meet this semester. Choose before you read the analysis, then see how the decision lands — for you, for the other people, and under Philippine law.

These cases are fictional composites built for classroom discussion. They describe harassment, discrimination, and unequal treatment without graphic detail. If a case feels close to home, you can stop at any point; support options are listed on Take Action. Nothing here is legal advice.
What the cases are for
Each case has more than one defensible response, and the strongest one is rarely the loudest. The debrief separates three questions that are easy to blur: Was it safe? Did it respect the person affected? Did it change the conditions that allowed the harm?
A response can be well-intentioned and still cause harm. A response can be imperfect and still be the best available option. The point is to notice the difference before you are in the room.
