This paper contends that psychological factors of cognition and affect come into play in determining which philosophical framework, scientific realism (SR) or instrumentalism, makes more sense in the practice of science through history. The proposed Argument from Psychological Difference (APD) asserts that the scientific realist has a stronger impetus than the instrumentalist to pursue science that is anchored in existing underlying reality and cognizant of how the human person practices such science. The APD is threshed out in recognizing transcendence as manifested through history; in affirming the human quest for truth and certainty; in the stand that is taken in history when the science is more mature and certain. SR is especially made more comprehensive and coherent when it considers the interplay of the observable and unobservable aspects of reality and of how the human person is in the scheme of things. Scientific realism is the more superior stance compared to instrumentalism because, ultimately, it makes more meaningful sense by being grounded in existing material reality that has the power to move us rather than in convenient fictions that operate on utility.

In this paper, I wish to argue that it is necessary to have an earnest understanding of the plight of women before crafting laws that directly impact their lives. Against the backdrop of my discussion is the notion of “oppression” offered by Iris Marion Young in her book Justice and Politics of Difference. I recount Young’s description of the “faces of oppression” and use her notion of oppression to show that the process of policy-making in the Philippines is mired by the oppressive dominance of patriarchal bias. In her book, The RH Bill Story: Contentions and Compromises, Marilen J. Dañguilan provides the most comprehensive study of the role that Filipina women played during the drafting of the 1987 Philippine Constitution and The Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of 2012. I draw on the work of Dañguilan in order to cite instances of oppression of women in policy making.
在本文中,我想指出,在制定直接影响妇女生活的法律之前,有必要认真了解妇女的困境。在我讨论的背景下,Iris Marion Young在她的著作《正义与政治的差异》中提出了“压迫”的概念。我重述了杨对“压迫面孔”的描述,并用她的压迫概念来表明,菲律宾的政策制定过程陷入了父权偏见的压迫统治。Marilen J. Dañguilan在她的书《RH Bill的故事:争论和妥协》中,对菲律宾妇女在起草1987年菲律宾宪法和2012年《负责任的生育和生殖健康法》期间所扮演的角色进行了最全面的研究。我引用Dañguilan的工作,以列举在政策制定中压迫妇女的例子。
