The Family Code defining and limiting marriage as between man and woman is not a
contrary to Section 11, Article II of the Constitution. Disallowing the members of
LGBT community to marry their own sexual category is not a violation of any human
rights or dignity nevertheless it only indicates respect to the sanctity of marriage.
The LGBTS were not denied the opportunity to present themselves as couples and
gain the respect of the community. Marriage, on the other hand was not made to
gain respect from the community but it is created to establish a conjugal and family
life. The Art 1 and 2 of the Family Code did not violate any human rights or dignity.
It is the people who should value the sanctity of marriage and follow the essential
requisites of marriage under Art 1 and 2 of the Family Code of the Philippines.

H. The Family Code defining and limiting marriage as between man and woman is
Constitutional. The privacy of every human person in the issue of same sex
marriage is not in question in a manner that marriage is not a private affair —
insofar as the institution of it is concerned between those two people in the eyes
of the law. The marriage of two people has to be a fairly public matter as far as the
registration, ceremony, and the outward social dynamics of it are to let others
know the two people are ‘together.’ It is the everyday activities inside the marriage
that are private affairs. The institution of marriage is a public one. And if the
marriage itself is a public matter there is no violation of right to privacy of the
members of the LGBTQ+.
