STRICT DAD. A retired medical doctor who has two daughters still unmarried has at least two rules for his girls to remember in considering acceptance of their suitors. One, the suitor must not be a smoker and must not have smoked in the last three years. Two, the suitor must not have any tattoo in any part of his body.
OBSERVANCE. Strict observance of the father’s rules has been noticed by a friend of one of the suitors. “Sobrang gugma ni John (not his real name) sa usa ka anak sa estriktong Dad. Gipapas niya ang iyang tattoo sa buko-buko,” an Ear informer said.
