Faith da Silva


Faith da Silva gets real about pretty privilege and objectification of women.

Faith da Silva revealed some of the "disadvantages" of being considered attractive. These include attracting men's attention and not being able to tell their true intentions.

"I think 'yung disadvantage rin ng pagiging isang maganda is 'yung pag-objectify sa'yo ng mga lalaki. I think karamihan sa experience ko, hindi ko alam kung talagang gusto ba nila akong i-pursue or gusto lang 'anikin.' Alam mo yun?" Faith said in the vodcast na Your Honor.

She added, "At siyempre siguro rin sa imaging namin na sexy kami, ganito, ganyan. So ang thinking nila is, yung respeto kumbaga medyo nawawala kasi nga na-objectify ka."

Faith agreed with the comment made by host Tuesday Vargas that some men lose respect for her.

"Pero I think aside from that, isa pa to sa disadvantage sa akin when it comes to male friendships. Karamihan ng mga lalaki na naging kaibigan ko, dumadating sa point na nai-in love. Eh ikaw, gusto mo lang naman ng friendship," she said.

Sometimes, Faith struggles to understand why her male friends develop feelings for her. When this happens, she chooses to distance herself and stops talking to some of them.

"Siguro hindi ko na sinasabi. Hindi na para magkaroon tayo ng conversation about it. Kasi nawala na 'yung thinking ko na pure 'yung intensyon mo sa akin. Kasi akala ko friendship lang pala 'yung gusto mo pero underlying, meron palang parang may iba kang intention, hindi naman friendship lang," Faith revealed.

Meanwhile, Faith was also put in the hot seat about the actors who tried to court her.

However, she chose not to mention their names on air and instead whispered them to Tuesday and Buboy, leaving them surprised.

"Ay maloloka kayo sa binulong!" Tuesday quipped. "Ang juicy!"

"Sobrang malaman!" Buboy Villar commented. "Hoy in fairness ha. Iba talaga ang ganda ng isang Faith da Silva."
