Glaiza de Castro and Xian Lim stars in GMA Network’s newest mini-series False Positive. The series follows an alpha male named Edward (Lim) who becomes pregnant after being cursed accidentally by his wife, Yannie (de Castro).

It would be fun to have men experience some of the uncomfortable experiences exclusive to the female body, right?

So, what do the False Positive stars Glaiza de Castro, Yvette Sanchez and Rochelle Pangilinan want their men to experience and understand?

Yvette Sanchez: Siguro po siyempre ‘yung kapag may period ‘yung babae. Mabigat kasi ‘yung feeling namin tapos sensitive din kami. Parang nagbubuntis din, di ako sure. Pero ‘yun, madalas ka talagang toyo-in, tino-toyo ka talaga minsan kahit walang reason or minsan maghahanap ka ng reason para toyo-in ka. Sana maintindihan nila ‘yung feeling, kasi abdominal pain. Minsan may times pa na buong araw ganun, nakahiga ka lang, ang sakit-sakit ng puson mo, minsan iniisip nila na OA ka lang, minsan may kine-crave ka din. Sana mas maging patient pa sila. ‘Yung hormones ng babae, hindi talaga siya biro. May mga babae kasi na irregular, ‘yung hormones nila irregular din. Sana mas maintindihan pa at mas pagpasensyahan pa ng mga lalaki ‘yung mga girl friend nila na tino-toyo.

Rochelle Pangilinan: Gusto ko ipa-experience sa kanya (husband Arthur Solinap) bilang nakaraos na kami sa puyat, na may baby kami, gusto ko ipa-experience sa kanya ang household chores. Kasi minsan kung hindi mo talaga malugaran ang isang gawain, hindi mo maiintindihan. Minsan ‘yun ‘yung lagi naming pinagtatalunan na minsan parang nagbibilangan.

Glaiza de Castro: Actually, gusto ko ‘yung sinabi ni Yvette kasi ‘yun talaga ‘yung una kong sasabihin din: ‘yung period, magka-regla, kasi ang hirap talaga. Lagi ko din ‘yan ine-explain kay David tapos sasabihin niya lang na kapag meron ako, ”lady problem.” So, gets niya na kaya ako moody, kaya ako iritable, like ‘yung last ko, siguro isa sa mga worst na na-experience ko may migraine na kasama. Sobrag lala nun, kaya gusto ko ma-experience niya para ma-validate ‘yung sinasabi ko sa kanya kasi iba ‘yung nakikita sa sinasabi.

False Positive aims to empower women and promote gender equality in all aspects of life, including becoming a parent. It also manifests the power of forgiveness, and that love is stronger than pride.

False Positive airs Mondays to Fridays on GMA Telebabad. It stars Glaiza de Castro, Xian Lim, Buboy Villar, Harlene Budol, Rochelle Pangilinan, Yvette Sanchez, Luis Hontiveros, Tonton Gutierrez and Ms. Nova Villa.
