Like Mang Kevin Cosme in this iconic series-turned-movie, this Pinoy dad keeps his family at ease with his sense of humor. When a suitor attempts to ask for his daughter’s hand in marriage, his response is: "Hihingiin ang kamay ng anak ko? Bakit?! Ooperahan ba iyon? Puputulin?"

He's not just "torpe" when it comes to the ladies he likes. Mario, played by Dolphy, is every bit as clueless when it comes to dealing with his rebellious, adopted daughter. But he more than makes up for his shortcomings with his sincerity. Who doesn't love a father like that?

This kind of dad is all too familiar for many Pinoys today. In the movie, Estrada plays the father of Toni Gonzaga, who is to be married to a man she met online. This kind of dad is usually the traditional type who will never give up his daughter to a stranger, much more someone he hasn't even seen in person yet.

This type of "mahigpit" dad usually takes a lot of convincing, wooing, and patience before he lets go of his beliefs for the sake of the daughter's happiness.
