Netizens shared their thoughts online and there were mixed reactions.
Some said that we should watch the whole interview to fully understand and that the intention was good but the delivery somewhat failed.
Other disagreed and said that it was a horrible remark.

Tito Sotto is the kind of gross creature you wish you never have to encounter in your life.

@krizzy_kalerqui it’s all her husband’s friend fault. He took advantage of her while she was drunk. Shame shame shame!

If you’re a man agreeing with Tito Sotto shaming that poor woman on TV, we’d better warn YOUR female friends not to get drunk with you, no?

Horrible remarks. Now, I wonder why did the electorate voted for Tito Sotto. Don’t let fame override necessity.

@krizzy_kalerqui anung mali sa sinabi niya? I don’t get what’s wrong when he just tried to act like our fathers…
